RE: So what do we all think good or bad about the new home button?

[Simon Fogarty]

Hi Donna & Scott,

 I don't have the 7 but had a look at the device in a store and was rather 
surprised at how the new home button works.

 I could have sworn that the home button moved it was so weird. But  guess it 
was  due to the haptic feedback.

 I wish apple would hurry up with the earpods 
I want a set!

You know, I was skeptical, too, but I really like it.  In fact, like you, 
Scott, I barely notice the difference.  The haptic feedback really does make it 
feel like you're actually pressing a mechanical button.

Hmm. Glad this thread was started, as I’m going to see it tomorrow. All that 
was said, so far, is very interesting.

Re: So what do we all think good or bad about the new home button?

[Scott Granados]

Also it’s not just a vibration it’s a small vertical mounted piece that taps 
the button.

That probably explains the difference in feel.

Re: So what do we all think good or bad about the new home button?

[David Chittenden]

According to a website which took an iPhone 7 apart, the new taptic engine is a 
vertical only vibration motor, rather than one which spins.

Re: So what do we all think good or bad about the new home button?

[Donna Goodin]

I agree Scott.  I suspect that the negative reaction--sighted and blind folks 
alike--is something akin to the concerns about the removal of the phone jack, 
i.e. apprehension of the unknown.  I imagine that once most people see how 
similar the experience with the virtual button is, those concerns will go away.
Cheers,
Donna

Re: So what do we all think good or bad about the new home button?

[Scott Granados]

It’s sort of striking how real it feels considering that’s a haptic response 
and not a real button.

I heard of objections about it on some of the mainstream media but I have to 
say I’m a fan.

I was sceptical at first too about the new home button, but I really like it in 
the 2 days I've had the phone.

Re: So what do we all think good or bad about the new home button?

[Alex Hall]

I have no problem with it at all. After seeing the new trackpads that work the 
same way, I knew this button wouldn't be a problem, and I was correct. It is 
recessed, so I can feel it, and it simulates the feeling of being pressed so 
well that I have to remind myself that it's not actually moving. In fact, when 
my sister started using her new 7, she was confused. I'd told her the home 
button wouldn't move, but when she tried it, she asked me why hers *was* moving 
when I said it wouldn't. That's how real the illusion is for some, and the best 
thing to do is not even worry about the button being virtual. You won't notice 
it being any different, I don't think.

Re: So what do we all think good or bad about the new home button?

[becky knaub]

At first I didn't like it. The more I use it though the more I'm starting to 
like it. I am trying to find which setting needs the lightest press. Anyone 
else have any ideas? It seems like one and three both require you to press 
harder.

I love the button. It gives a lot of feedback and does feel a lot like a real

So what do we all think good or bad about the new home button?

[Scott Granados]

Wonder what people think about the new home button?  I was skeptical.  I had a 
chance to hold the phone prelaunch but not use it for any length of time.  It 
was attached to another device so we were testing from the PC and controlling 
the device remotely.  Now that I’ve had a 24 hour period to use it, I really 
dig it.  I was afraid because I don’t like the capacitive buttons on Android.  
They don’t have any feedback or even physical identifier.  It feels 
surprisingly real to me.  When you press and get that response it feels a lot 
like a button.  I also like the response is configurable.  I know others 
disagree though so I’m interested in what others using the 7 think of the touch 
sensitive virtual button.

Thanks
Scott
