So what do you all say to the claim that r&d has proven that people will need to shrink their fingers to happily use a smaller touch device? I've used an iPad and an iTouch, and clearly the iPad is super comfortable. Is the mini, the smallest we can go and still have an easy to use touch interface?
- quux 14y agoiPad mini has the same dpi as the non retina iPhones, and nobody had trouble tapping on things.
- xxbondsxx 14y agoDPI has no effect on the size of a thumb relative to the size of an icon on the screen. Smaller ipad -> smaller icons -> harder to tap
- quux 14y agoWhat i mean is a 44pt button should be the same physical size on an iPad mini and an iPhone 3gs. Nobody had trouble touching buttons on the 3gs
- mikeash 14y agoOf course DPI has an effect. An icon is a certain number of pixels in size, and DPI determines how that translates into physical size.
