    I don’t think I’d buy a device with no buttons I mean it could work fine UI wise but what do you do if an app freezes.

      This is a big reason why I wish things had removable batteries, and I really don’t want to buy anything without a hardware force shutdown process. Thankfully laptops have it, but I don’t think phones do anymore.

      Having to wait till a device runs out of battery is a nightmare scenario

        I agree. The System UI has been crashing hard on my S23 Ultra recently due to the One UI 6.0 Beta, which means I can’t open any app or even shutdown—nothing happens. Thankfully, you can force a shutdown by holding Volume Down and Power for 15 seconds.

        There should always be a hardware force shutdown option.
