AnonD-362866, 18 Dec 2015If that were true, Samsung wouldn't be developing it's own version of force touch. Think of it... moreYou dont understand .
The size of area would not be fixed .
This is some example of force touch without even need the force touch hardware .

If multiple touch detected within xx area then ... moreIf that were true, Samsung wouldn't be developing it's own version of force touch. Think of it like this, you have a petite female using the device, the size of her finger is genetically smaller than that of a male or even a regular sized woman, it would be extremely inaccurate for her to use.

If multiple touch detected within xx area then do c .
My self is a software programmer =) it is totally possible .
No need to use sarcasm accent .
AnonD-246723, 14 Dec 2015Because nobody ever progam it on software level .Ok genius, long press does function "a" force touching does function "b". Program the long press to take over function "a". How do you then access function "b"?
AnonD-362866, 14 Dec 2015Really? than why doesn't it do the same thing?Because nobody ever progam it on software level .
AnonD-246723, 09 Dec 2015Normal capacitive touch screen have some degree force touch itself . Larger force give larger dot .Really? than why doesn't it do the same thing?

Anonymous, 09 Dec 2015You don't need extra hardware to be honest.Remove the extra hardware, and you remove the extra functionality. You have to remember that force touching does something, and long pressing does something else, You could try to emulate it sure, but would NEVER get the full experience without the extra hardware.

Anonymous, 08 Dec 2015I smell a law suit.Apple won't sue because they basically copied this feature from another company.

So...3d touch is useless
Reminds me of touchwiz where you would put your finger above the screen and the picture would enlarge or the video would start playing.

The shortest is probably less than 0.5 seconds.. And it is error-proof.. 3D touch has a disadvantage where you are not sure how hard you should press.. Sometimes you have to do it multiple times to get the pressure right.. So NO.. 3D touch is not faster.
Thank you Instgram for proving that Apple fanboys' bragging of "3D Touch is magical" is wrong. It is a cool tech but not all that revolutionary.
AnonD-265082, 08 Dec 20153D Touch and technology alike is just a glorified long press. The addition of this feature sho... moreNow imagine if you mix both...
Ok, awesome! Now it's working now(it fixed itself after couple of hours lol) actually, it's released on Play Store but probably only for beta testers.
I like this implementation better than the 3D touch. More intuitive for me.
