What value accrues with Screen Lock on as opposed to just letting it go to sleep?
to prevent unwanted "butt calls" .... lol ....
LOL Ok. Thing is, do you actually know that that is the only value that does accrue or, are you just guessing?
what would your preference be? no lock at all ?? if that is what you're hinting at, then I would think that any tap on the screen - wanted or unwanted at all - would result in apps being launched unexpectedly .. e.g., butt calls ... My old LG DARE had that issue - I was constantly calling people when I had not intended to.
No, if I hit the Power button, the DX goes to sleep and the Screen shuts down which in effects prevents inadvertent Calls or application interaction. The Question is, what value does adding Swipe Unlock as an additional step provide to me?
You have to hit the power switch to wake the phone in either case.
Case 1 Phone to sleep. phone rings. Need to swipe left to right to be able to answer the phone.
Case 2 Phone to sleep. Phone rings. Just press the button to answer the phone
Case 1 adds an extra step.
Does Case 1 which requires left to right swipe do any thing else to add any value to justify using it?
