    But it eats into tbr screen size if implemented the old school Blackberry way, instead what I’d prefer is a under the screen slide out keyboard + navigation pad, like the Blackberry priv, or even the LG wing with the second display screen could have been an amazing form factor, allowing you to control the main display from the smaller customizable touch display at the bottom, at least my main screen wouldn’t have all these finger smudges

      Yes, but even just for menu navigation without keyboard would be an improvement. wouldn’t have to use more space than the old physical home buttons.

      However typing is the more frustrating element, so it would be nice.

        Yeah something like the touch center button in the old Blackberry would be great for navigation, and they could add a fingerprint scanner to it like the old iPhone, and make that stupid top notch smaller
