It's 30 on my phone. Most ROMs offer the ability to resize it. Doesn't CyanogenMod?The Kernel wrote:It is not 30 pixels it is 96 or roughly 8% of the vertical resolution. I'd call that significant since you can tuck the buttons in places where you can't put screen since you can't have an edge-to-edge LCD vertically (although horizontally is possible).
You are using a Galaxy Nexus? Then it's not 30. There's no way a 30 pixel button bar would even be USABLE assuming a 1280x720 display. What are you basing this 30 pixel figure on anyway?Terralthra wrote: It's 30 on my phone. Most ROMs offer the ability to resize it. Doesn't CyanogenMod?
My apologies, it's 30 doubled pixels, so 60. I could take it down to 24 dp/48 pixels, but that was a tad too small for my tastes.The Kernel wrote:You are using a Galaxy Nexus? Then it's not 30.

To check download Android System Info and read out the effective resolution it gives you to know for sure.
Indeed. The S3 definitely has a hardware advantage - not a huge one, but an advantage nonetheless.The Kernel wrote:Yeesh, that's just absurdly small.
Anyway to each their own. As I said, I like the Galaxy Nexus just fine but I think that the Galaxy SIII is simply a better phone. Some of the reasons (superior hardware) aren't in dispute but some reasons are subjective.
