TOUCH SCREENS ARE OVER. EVEN APPLE IS BRINGING BACK BUTTONS
Summary from the TLDR newsletter
Screen interfaces require people to look at them, making the 'touch screen' a misnomer. Buttons, knobs, sliders, and other physical controls are making a comeback in vehicles, appliances, and personal electronics. Engineers and designers are tapping into people's sense of touch and spatial awareness to make using gadgets easier, more fun, and in some cases, safer. Physical interfaces allow people to use devices without looking and makes interactions with machines more intuitive.
