Samsung might finally make swipe navigation the default setup option on new phones


Sounds like Samsung might finally be updating its phone setup process, and it's about time.

Samsung might finally let you pick between gesture and button navigation during initial setup, meaning you no longer have to dig through Settings just to swipe. Samsung might finally be giving users a choice between button and gesture navigation right from the get-go when setting up a new phone, instead of sticking with the classic three-button layout by default. While the company may soon give users a choice during the initial setup, it's widely believed the classic navigation method will remain an option for those who prefer it.
