[Phone] ROG Phone 8 - How to use Pressure-sensitive buttons in games?

The Pressure-sensitive buttons are areas on the phone that can be pressed, they are located on both ends of the phone's frame. The Pressure-sensitive buttons can be customized for various functions, such as triggering specific actions in games or launching certain applications.

 

1. Use your fingertips for pressing

For optimal usage of the Pressure-sensitive buttons, it is recommended to press with a small area of your finger, such as your fingertips. This method improves precision and reduces accidental touches, allowing you to perform the required operations more accurately when using the Pressure-sensitive buttons. By applying pressure with your fingertips, you can control the buttons better, resulting in a better experience.

 

2. Gently press the on-screen buttons while using it together with the Pressure-sensitive buttons

When using the Pressure-sensitive buttons, gently press the game buttons on the screen. Avoid exerting excessive force on the screen area around the Pressure-sensitive buttons (especially the upper left and right corners). This method of operation reduces accidental touches or unintentional activation of other functions, resulting in a more precise and smooth operation.

 

3. Hold the phone steadily

Avoid vigorously shaking the phone while using the Pressure-sensitive buttons. The sensors for the Pressure-sensitive buttons are located on the phone's frame. Gripping the phone too tightly can compress the frame and cause instability in the sensors. This can result in accidental touches or incorrect operation of the Pressure-sensitive buttons.

 

4. Gently hold the phone, maintaining comfort in your hands

When using Pressure-sensitive buttons, avoid gripping the phone too tightly, as excessive force can cause unstable detection of the sensors. It is recommended to readjust your grip on the phone, hold it gently, maintain comfort in your hand movements, and then lightly touch the Pressure-sensitive buttons again.

 

5. Ensure that the phone case fits properly

If your phone has a protective case, ensure that the corners of the case fit securely. If the case does not fit properly, it may put pressure on the Pressure-sensitive buttons, leading to abnormal operation. If the corners of your protective case do not fit the phone properly, it may require more force to activate the Pressure-sensitive buttons, which can affect your overall user experience. (To avoid accidentally pressing the Pressure-sensitive buttons, it is recommended to exit the game before removing or fitting the protective case.)
