Who would need to press the power button to actually turn off or restart the device, right?

The setting to change this is also pretty much buried under Settings -> Special Features -> Gestures.

(Yes, I have no idea why the Assistant is in German when the phone is set to English either ๐Ÿซ )

As others have said Samsung has been like this for a while so they may be copying it from there.

If its the same as Samsung, holding power + volume down should bring up the power menu.

I actually like the button being mappable to something else, gives me more options, I do think they should have the default be the old behaviour though, maybe with a popup on the first activation to tell you that you can change it.

I have mine set to Bixby so I can quickly set timers and reminders without needing the always on voice detection, double press opens camera.

More options and customisation possibilities is always better, but using it to force another peoduct is scummy :(

So the shortcut that's always been for screenshots is now for power, but only for powering it down. That makes total logical sense and isn't inane at all.

[โ€“] wiccan2@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Holding power + volume down brings up the power menu Pressing power + volume down takes a screenshot

Though other comments point out that there isn't any consistency between manufacturers

[โ€“] edible_funk@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Oh wow, they made it even more fuckin stupid by adding different functionality for long press vs short press.

Better than iOS which Konami coded or ctrl-alt-deleted its way to vol up, vol down, power

If its the same as Samsung, holding power + volume down should bring up the power menu.

On my NP1, it's Power and Volume Up. So much for consistent behaviour between different Android devices...

[โ€“] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 1 points 17 hours ago

it's almost like they should have just gone with both volume buttons, that way it doesn't matter if one manufacturer uses volume up and volume down and the other manufacturer uses volume down and volume up

What the shit? Pressing and holding power and a volume button used to be for force shutdown. It's been that way for over a decade! Fucking hell.
