[NFB-Braille-Discussion] Iphone Se 2020

[Ellen Ringlein]

I have an iPhone 8. I don't know if it is the same size as the new C2020. I am sharing my experience with Braille screen input, in case it is.

I use Braille screen input all the time in screen away mode and love it. Screen away mode means you hold the phone on the sides with the screen pointing away from you and place your fingers on the screen from the short ends of the phone. This also works, if you set the phone on a surface screen side up. It is my primary way of typing text into the phone. I do have to recalibrate the dot positions once in a while, when the input goes wonky. I did by an Orbit writer to use with my pone, but I hardly use it, since I still prefer using Braille screen input directly on the phone.

Cordially,

Ellen

I use an iPhone SE2020. I do not use braille screen input though, finding the phone to be a bit too small for that. I prefer my iPad 8th generation for any braille screen input because it behaves a lot like a brailleNote touch. For braille on my iPhone, I use an orbit reader20, or an orbit writer Bluetooth braille keyboard.

Hello,
I am considering the iPhone Se 2020. For those of you who use braille screen input and own the Se 2020, do you think the phone is adequate for braille screen input? What about using tabletop mode? Is the phone too small for that? I have an 8 plus now, but it’s on its way out, so I am looking at options To replace it.
