From the discussion

A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.

The author's first two reasons for return are not liking Touch ID or the outer screen. These are two of my favourite aspects. Each to their own. I like the short screen in particular, having always consciously felt that my focus zone was only a fraction of the slab format.

This article made me realize I'd never consider returning a non-defective product, I wonder why that is.

I feel like there are a lot of reviews like this, where people talk about why the phone wasn’t for them, but not the opposite. Why are Duo owners keeping theirs? It’s kind of maddening to only see one dimension of the device.
