Touchscreens Are Out, and Tactile Controls Are Back

Designers are reintroducing buttons to their products. This 're-buttonization' could be a response to everything becoming a touchscreen. People like physical buttons because they don't have to look at them and they offer a greater range of tactility and feedback. This article contains an interview with Rachel Plotnick, an associate professor of Cinema and Media Studies at Indiana University in Bloomington, where she discusses the history of buttons, the rise of touchscreens, the shift back to buttons and physical controls, and more.

Thank goodness because one problem I've had with something been all touch screen is when water falls on it, it's difficult to type the right thing and I've made silly mistakes with the situation
