What?

>>56701515
apple fanboys are actually this retarded.

>>56701515
rocking buttons are more ergonomic and intuitive

I wouldn't mind having a dedicated button to immediately put my phone on silent to be honest.

>>56701556
they're not, they feel cheap and not tactile

VOL(-) does that by default you dumb fuck.

I have one with those, Blackberry Priv. it's nice. But the mute button inbetween is annoying and useless.

i don't get it, what's the issue here?
Not a whole lot of android phones with mute switch, the only one i can think of is One Plus 2
>>
>>56701649
because holding the - button is so hard. Better add special buttons for special people like youtself

What are you asking for?
>>
>>56701649
ayyyyy lmao 7/10 nice b8
>>
>>56701757

Google stripped that functionality away a while ago. You have to actually set it to silent or it won't go past the lowest but still "on" setting. That or it will arbitrarily pick a different volume setting to lower.
>>

>>metal
>>clicking sensation
>What are you asking for?

uhh... a metal cap over a clicky button?
>>
>>56701649
and sure you drive an automatic car
>>
I would actually rather have a phone with buttons along the side, each giving a different tick of the volume meter. Someone want to sketch up this design?
>>
>>56701944
That's exactly what my rocking volume button is.
>>
>>56701515
?
>>
>>56701649
Me too. Well to be clear it's a button that shuts off all notifications and alarms rather than just silencing it. I'd use it daily
>>
>>56701649
Not sure if your post is autistic or the replies are autistic. A flip switch like iphone used to have for mute was actually very useful.
>>
>>56701649
Why is everyone being retarded about this post?

Sure, holding voldown would do the same but I wouldn't mind a mute switch either. A lot more practical and efficient. Why cant phones have more buttons?

stop shitposting to make yourself feel better about your stupid comment.

Nobody wants a mute button m8

Haha just press the reduce volume button 8 times! what a dummy!

not funny. delete this before some chink chonk company tries to steal this idea

I'm an Android fanboy but I will admit Apple volume buttons are objectively better. Stop giving us imprecise slim volume buttons, I want to actually feel what I'm pressing.
>>
>>56701649
(((YOU))) are retarded
>>
>>56702004
iPhones still have the mute switch.

Can you retards knock it off so we can talk about hardware buttons?

I give up. Threadjacking sucessful. My job is done

Hell I didn't know, last one I had was the 5c I didn't look at the 6 or 6s with to much attention.

>>56702156
ugh this makes me gag
>>
>>56701649
why are we all replying to this
>>
>>56701649
I never understood the dedicated button reasoning. Does anyone actually use it or care about it? Seems like a gimmick if anything. I'm pretty sure everyone I know with an iPhone just uses the buttons...
>>
>>56702034
haha just press 1 once and hold down for 3 seconds!!!

>>
>>56701649
OnePlus 2, OnePlus X, and OnePlus 3 all have an alert switch
>>
>>56703452
I use it all the time. I like it because when you switch it back to audio it keeps the same levels I had before.

Good bait tho

>The iPad has it and I bet it's a fucking blessing.
Not anymore. The last ones that have the rotation lock are the iPad mini 2 and the iPad Air 1.
>>
>>56701515
Real talk here: Why do phones still have fucking physical volume buttons when every other function of the phone is controlled by the touchscreen?

If I was apple I'd get rid of this shit way before the 3.5 mm jack.
>>
>>56701869
they are selling pokemon go+ devices which is basically that... fuck this world im living in
>>
>>56704247
I was gonna call you out, but now that I think about it, 3 finger swiping in either direction seems a lot easier to change the volume in your pocket than fumbling around for the almost flush feeling physical buttons. That's if they implement this gesture of course. Maybe 4 finger swipe to change songs.
>>
>>56703452
One of the few things I truly miss from my iPhone.
>>
>>56701649
I have no idea why /g/lee is acting so retard

Like full retard, you people probably don't have this problem because you arent used to recive calls and texts in the first place

Still I would like a dedicated button too since you have to unlock the phone to access volume control

Not sure how iPhone and opo buttons works, I would actually like to configure them into loud and vibrate
>>
>>56705742
iPhones vibrate by default when the mute switch is flipped.
You can disable vibrate in the settings if you want full silent, but it won't vibrate when you flip it back.
>>
>>56701649

Why is everyone replying to this post? I can't put my phone on silent unless I turn on and unlock the phone on my S7. A flip of a switch would be really convenient.
