fun fact, iOS, while fully capable of hardware rotation, does rotation by rotating all of the buffers individually and compositing them in the panel’s native orientation (portrait).

The latest android on the pixel 2 doesn't allow the user to lock the screen in landscape mode. That option is saved for tablets only.

the android beta im on has a button that shows up when you rotate so you can 'opt in' to rotation on the fly and i think its pretty good

but if i made the phones there would be a real microswitch for rotation alongside the power and volume buttons because it. just. makes. sense.

my Sony Xperia Z5 Compact is still doing real well. i dropped it and the camera crapped out for a while but it came back again yesterday so i'm good with it for now. no manufacturer other than Sony still makes small phones with high end hardware. i assume it's a kawaii thing.

when it finally craps out, i will replace it with a Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact.
