i can of get what your saying, but like any new device especially this
one ive had to change to get used to the way it works and have to say im
getting settled down but on the other hand this is early days and this
phone / operating system has sooo much scope and modifications im for
sure know they are on the way were just fortunate to be in at the early
days. I had the first slide android google phone with the roller ball
now this was buggy hard to use, loads of apps never worked and the
battery lasted about three hours a day, the only way to get half a day
was to disable, gprs, wifi, bluetooth which defeated the whole point of
getting the phone. Id put your thoughts across and im sure these
modifications will be in place very soon. When we move to vivid over the
next week or so you will se changes, when we move closer to convergence
around xmas you will see a different kettle of fish. Watch it grow. Some
of the new features for this phone / operating system are elite.
Its like the centre circle on the lock screen has so much potential if
you have the proper ubuntu phone in the proper case with the circle cut
out.. imagine the circle having them time and date at the top. the
notifications in the middle and a play / pause button at the bottom for
music and when the phone rings u can press a green button or slide to
answer? without even opening your phone case?
Now because of the nature of the beast im for certain this will be
introduced its just as sake of waiting as they are just working getting
the phone stable and all the features enabled and preserving battery
life and other features etc..
I hope you get my direction, stick with t its amazing :) just wait....

I partly agree. The only things I don't understand are 1) why the slider
has to be so narrow and 2) why it is not located in the middle of the
screen. That would make it a lot easier to reach and to operate,
expecially considering how today's phones get bigger and bigger but
people's hands don't. I, for one, have comparatively small hands. On my
android phone, the slider-equivalent used to be in the middle thus
making it a lot easier to reach for me. It also had a back button on the
upper left (software) and lower right (hardware) meaning I could use the
phone with either hand. But that's another story.

Even I as someone who is very concerned about the current lack of
encryption need to be able to answer calls asap.
I didn't find it very obvious that I have to pull a thumb instead of
the actual green take call button. And some people I know struggle
much more than I do in learning thse weird interactions.
And most recently I'm even struggling to hang up because the PIN
entry shows up during the call.
Again this isn't a place where security can be allowed to compromise
UX.
That said, I do appreciate that I'm not taking calls in my pocket,
albeit I'm still "failing to unlock" sometimes and notice when it
vibrates as a result of that.

20 years ago, my old Siemens S4, you have had first to unlock the
keypad and than answer the call with a 2nd key;
today it should work IMHO like this:
- ringing is presented (maybe even with Calling Party Number)
- you have to unlock your screen passcode
- you hit a button to answer
that anybody who finds a ringing BQ without unlocking the screen
with
the passcode, is already a security issue, IMHO

Umm No!
When a Phone rings general users just want to answer it, not leap
though hoops to do that. Any entry bar you raise above that of
android/ios limits the likelihood of adoption.
People are happy and used to sliding the slider to answer a call.
