Where the design community meets.

I am actually very interested in learning more about the research upon which this approach is based. Some simple routine tasks like setting up an alarm, adding a note, the initial steps of a complex flow might be better optimized for one-handed operation, however it's highly likely that as the complexity of the task increases you'll have to use 2 hands anyways so I'm not sure whether this exact sort of optimization is worth it, but yeah... if they made the research or rational public it'll most certainly be an interesting read.

I think they have a good idea here, but poorly executed in some parts. I'm surprised no other OSes have even tried with the problem of huge screens. It does make sense to make the top half of the screen, at least in a default state, more of a "readout" and keep the interactive elements towards the bottom.
