The Samsung circle reflects the fact that more of your hand is taken up in holding the increased witdth of the phone. If you actually try it you can see how it works easily.
- cheald 14y agoI've got an HTC Sensation (the same size as the S II), an iPod Touch, and a Nexus One, and my "thumb range" is pretty wildly different from Dustin's diagrams. I said it when he first posted it, and I'll say it now - the larger screen isn't a problem unless you have midget-thumbs, and the diagram is not true to the actual range of motion for the devices.
- Steko 14y agoI don't have midget thumbs or the largest fingers but my range of motion pretty much matches his diagrams. I have an iphone but don't operate it one handed enough [1] for this to be remotely a dealbreaker. [1] If anything I prefer to use the phone two handed and in landscape.
- jmathai 14y agoAgreed. I dropped a loaner SII on the concrete because I only had one hand to try and reach something. I'm not an iPhone user but having used the SII I won't ever get a phone with a screen so large it compromises actually using it.
