Kiyasuriin, 21 Apr 2018In many cases the volume is set as a shutter. Try taking a pic pressing on your volume rockerIt should be button for zoom function instead.
Sony is doing this well with their Xperias.
I wish Nokia and others would do it too, instead of another unnecessary AI button that will be used by 1 out of a million people in reality.

A powerbutton to boot the thing, volume rocker (Vol+/Vol-) and a remappable button. For the users to choose. That combo would steal my heart.

The bezeless trend was about eliminating the last remnants of buttons, and here someone is putting more.

yeah, at least it's not another new assistant. but that just makes something else more confusing. if they're not trying to shove proprietary software down your throat, why wouldn't they let you remap the button to something useful? is that Google's command or do they offer "incentives" of some sort for it?

Now if it doubled as a clicker for the camara that would be great. if its just another bixby button that cant be remapped this phone probably is already dead
