Well....anyone who doesn't like their ATIV S and wants an Android phone, let me know - I have a Nexus 4 I'd be willing to trade for it.
I wouldn't listen to these people. If the button placement is anything like the GS3, then it is by far the best button placement for a larger phone. Having the button on top is just moronic in my opinion, too difficult to reach without using two hands. I honestly think it is quite comical how people can press the volume button by accident when pressing the power button. The natural grip would be to have your index finger behind your phone, nowhere near volume rocker and the rest of your fingers should be below the rocker. While your thumb is near the screen. To hit the power button just hit it with your thumb. To hit the volume rocker, just use your index finger. Shouldnt need either thumb or index finger to grip the phone, unless you suck. HahaYou ruined my idea to exchange HTC 8X to ATIV S. I hate HTC because of stupid power button on top of the phone. And I thought that Samsung will have better button positions. But volume level buttons, problems with SD card! Oh my goodness. I didn't buy Lumia 920 because I don't need stone brick in my pocket ! There is no perfection in the world.

Your grip is clearly based on holding the phone with your right hand. Most people are right handed and hold the phone with their left hand. The only way to press the power button with the left forefinger is to support the top left corner with the left thumb. Unfortunately the volume buttons are in the way. Thanks for saying we suck.

HahaThe Lumia way is also poor because you have the camera button, power, and volume rocker all on one side and placed too close together and gives you no space on the right to grip.

I am also right handed, but it seems HTC 8X was designed for left handed. Because it is the only position when you can easily switch phone on and off with one hand. I would kill designer of 8X if I able to find him
I meant turn screen on/off, not the entire phone.Not sure why you want to turn off your phone so much for? I turned my ATIV S off two times in two months!
There is no way to put the buttons in a perfect place because there are left handed people and right handed people! There is always going to be conflict with left & right handed people!

Link to said incipio case please. I went to their site and found shells for the Odyssey model only.I own the Ativ S and plan to get the 920. Holding both it's not that big a difference. One-handed use is about the same, as well as in-pocket feel. (both phones are out if skinny jeans are part of the scenario) The 920 is noticeably heavier if you're holding both at the same time, but it's not going to make your arm more tired during a phone call unless you just had chemo. If you have a case on your Ativ like I do (incipio shell) then it's a wash completely.
