Hi, everyone. If you have a spare moment, can you all try to do something on your edge screens? Noticed a "quirk" on mine and want to see if I'm not alone.

On your home screen, try cycling through the various edge panels you have by swiping very close to the actual screen edge. Are you noticing that this doesn't register as well within "thumb's reach" as opposed to the upper half of the edge screen? I've noticed that on the lower portion of the screen, cycling does not consistently occur unless I'm beginning my swipe closer to where the flat display and edge panel meet. On the upper portion, however, I can swipe very close to the end - the middle of the edge screen - and my swipes are registered all the time.

I figure this is probably intentional to help reduce false taps and swipes when your palm is near the bottom half of the edge screen, but it never hurts to double-check your $1,000 phone, right? Thanks everyone in advance.
 
Hmm... I don't really have that problem. I only repeated 10 times at the bottom, middle and top. so i get like 10, 9, 10.
Repeated with index finger and i get 10, 9, 9.
 
Thanks for your input, guys. I think it may have more to do with my super-dry hands and how I actually touch the panel to cycle through. My Zagg protector may be part of the reason, as well. I tried playing around with an Edge at the AT&T store and it behaved similar to mine, so I'll just leave it alone. I have more of these inconsistencies swiping "out" (right to left) than vice versa, so it may be me just needing to get more familiar with the boundary where the software recognizes me trying to cycle through the panels.
