Not an iOS user: This phone looks interesting to me - how pervasive is 3d touch? Am I missing out on something by getting a phone missing this feature?
Not very. It's mostly a few shortcuts, the only genuine feature is that you can force-touch the keyboard to get a sort of trackpad surface (for more precise cursor movement in text)
But now when have to write text on a phone without it, I notice immediately, it's mildly frustrating.
