Some special or rare gestures will have to get used to, but overall the development teams is not hard.
While most edge-to-edge Android smartphones are controlled with virtual buttons, Apple went further and adapted to the iOS screen new generation. Therefore, the products of the Corporation from Cupertino so different from the competition.
OLED
Apple always cared about the quality of the picture and to equip their devices with excellent screens. Display X iPhone is not very impressive when you first open the box with the smartphone. But after a week it becomes clear that Apple has significantly improved the screen and work the color. The smartphone is able to transmit deep black and to display vivid and bright colors.
Although, unfortunately, typical for OLED panels problems could not be avoided. Some displays suffer from the effect of the “image capture”.
