[Q] Capacitive Sensor Boundaries?

[Lightfall]

So far my new zenwatch has been great. However, I have noticed in a couple apps such as Multi Calculator for wear, that buttons at the bottom like . and at the top like ac/c don't respond very well. Then I noticed that throughout the entire watch interface, the top and bottom 1/4 of the screen (not the bezel) are entirely unresponsive to touch. I wanted to see if this was a defect or possibly a byproduct of that curved glass not allowing the capacitive sensor to extend beyond that middle portion of the screen. Does anyone else notice this?

I've mostly been marking it up to bad aim on my part but it seems to me that I often miss touches in the upper right corner. Too soon to tell if it's the watch or just my shakiness.

Yeah I thought my aim was off too. Try dragging from the top on the watch face screen. You'll notice it actually starts to pull it down a few millimeters from the top. I was hoping it was a defect so I could just exchange it but my fear is that they all do it and it is not fixable via software.

I agree that the first couple of millimeters of the actual screen don't respond but nowhere near 1/4 of it.

I notice this on my zenwatch after using an lg g watch, g watch r and moto 360 all side by side. The zenwatch also seams less accurate on thing nlike minuum keyboard and generally with scrolling. I suspect a cheaper less accurate digitizer has been used?

On mine I can hit the topmost part of the screen, the bottom, and all corners. I turned on "Show touches" in the developer options to make sure it registers where im touching. If you test it that way, you can see if its a defective screen or just accuracy issues.
