I would be happy to give up the keyboard from my k3 as I rarely use it anyway, but the page turn buttons are so much nicer to use than a swipe or tap to change pages, they are right under your thumb so almost no effort needed at all.

Sadly we will likely see less buttons on devices all the time, companies would much prefer to drop any point of mechanical failure like physical buttons because it reduces the points of failure on the device.
