Ex Thunderbolt users and the power button

[daso]

I know this is of minimal consequence and by no means a gripe, but how many of you ex Thunderbolt users keep hitting the power button instead of the volume rocker. I've gotten so used to my past DInc and Tbolt power and vol buttons I'm almost shutting my phone down multiple times a day.

I've gotten used to it more and more. The first couple of days I kept pressing the top of the phone to try and hit the power button and then I would remember that there isn't anything on top.

I actually prefer the location on the side vs the top. To me it just makes more sense to reach the side of the phone with your finger vs doing pushing the top down especially on a larger phone.

I'm slowly getting used to it. When I first got the Nexus I kept hitting the power button by mistake but better with it after a few days.

I am still adjusting, I spent the first day or two pressing the top of the phone to turn the screen off. The only thing that bothers me with the controls now is the volume rocker's position, I keep adjusting that when I try to turn the screen off or on.

I had more of an adjustment from my DInc to my TB with the volume rocker being moved from the right side of the phone to the left. That drove me up a wall.

Nexus change isn't as big of a deal. Then again, I haven't had many calls yet.

First day or two I kept reaching for the top thinking why wont the phone turn on or off... LOL. I always had either a Motorolla or HTC phone with the power button on top. I've gotten use to it now.

Yes, even after having the Tbolt for 6 months I couldn't get used to the power being on the right instead of the left.

Ironically I find the GN transition was almost immediate.

it does take a while to get used to. Still haven't adjusted.

EXACTLY!

Speaking of power button... in the Accessibility Settings, you can set the power button to end your phone call.

I like it!
