After delving into the Bphone 3 camera, let's continue exploring how to use Bphone 3, the unique gestures exclusive to Bphone 3. Those who have used iPhone X or some touch-sensitive smartphones probably have an idea of its usage. However, on Bphone 3, it's even more remarkable in many ways.
Bphone 3: Swipe, Swipe, and Swipe
1. Swipe Left Gesture
For Bphone 3 users, the swipe left gesture takes you back to the previous page. This action is equivalent to the Back button on previous Android devices.
2. Swipe Right Gesture
With the swipe right gesture, quick tools will immediately appear instead of the previous Notification. These toolbars can be compared to those on iPhone X, and BKAV acknowledges drawing inspiration from this operating system.
3. Swipe Down Gesture
The most familiar gesture remains swiping down to display the Notification panel. With this action, users can easily view information, app notifications, or familiar messages and calls.
4. Screen Hold Gesture
In addition to swiping, users can utilize screen-holding gestures on both sides to activate specific features.
- Hold left screen edge: Holding for 1 second will display the screen brightness adjustment function without accessing toolbars as before.
- Hold right screen edge: Holding for 1 second will reveal the on-screen volume control without pressing physical buttons as before.
5. Quick Screen Off in Bphone 3
An interesting discovery during the Bphone 3 experience is that you can simply swipe to quickly turn off the screen. Specifically, swipe from the left edge to the right for a short distance and quickly swipe back to the initial position. The system will automatically recognize the command and promptly turn off the Bphone 3 screen.
6. Multitasking Interface on Bphone 3
The multitasking interface of Bphone 3 closely resembles current Android models and even iPhone X. For Android, it still involves pressing and holding to access the quick interface editing section on Android.
If you want to display the multitasking interface like iPhone X or certain apps, just swipe from the bottom to the middle of the screen and hold there.
About the Settings Interface
Taking a quick look at the Settings section reveals not much has changed. We'll delve into more details when the official Bphone 3 is available, as well as in another article. Here, you can see that Bphone 3 is running on Android 8.1.0 with the latest BOS 3.0 version.
Call and Messaging Interface
The interfaces of familiar apps like calling and messaging haven't undergone significant changes. With Bphone 3's new 18:9 aspect ratio screen, the user experience is now sleeker and more elegant.
Exclusive Apps on Bphone 3
In addition to default apps pre-installed or those downloaded from the CH Play app store, Bphone 3 still features exclusive apps like eDict and Chim Lac. Another noteworthy mention is a browser app.
- eDict: Simply put, this is a dictionary app that allows users to look up various dictionaries like Vietnamese - English. It is an exclusive BKAV product and currently only available on the latest Bphone models.
- Chim Lac: A completely new browser developed by BKAV. Currently, Chim Lac is only available on computers and Bphone 3. BKAV has no plans to introduce it to current app stores.
Above is our initial assessment of a prominent feature, the functions, and capabilities that Bphone 3 offers for you to consider before deciding whether to buy Bphone 3 or not. Of course, this is not necessarily all the features we can expect from the official release; Mytour will take more time to explore and introduce more features to our readers.
One of BKAV's mobile pride lies in the Bkav Mobile Security feature, considered the most robust defense layer on Bphone 3. Users can fully trust and utilize Bkav Mobile Security on Bphone 3. Using Bkav Mobile Security on Bphone 3 is the solution BKAV wants to offer to its users.
