Hey

Quick question for those lucky people who own the o2 version of the polaris.

Is the scroll wheel still a directional pad aswell as scroll "spin round" wheel?

The Polaris looks like its "pressable" ( up down left right ) etc , but from pics of the o2 version orbit 2, it just looks like it spins round, like the current orbit 1. Have this directional input is a big thing for my next fone, especially for the orbit as its serious lack of buttons.

Yes it does. This one does not rattle like Artemis when a call comes. It is firmer. I think each round turn shifts it through one line item :mad: I wish I could find a regstry key to make it more responsive.

the d-pAd is very good yes
but the wheel is not better than artemis for sure,i believe that the use of the wheel for me is only for zoom in/out.
good quality but no use.
