The problem is that his claim that a touchscreen e-reader is difficult to operate with one hand contradicts the visuals where he demonstrates how easy it is to operate a touchscreen e-reader with one hand.

It's objectively true that physical buttons offer tactile feedback. Whether or not this makes physical buttons better than a touchscreen is entirely subjective. For the simple task of turning the page on an e-reader, I find that a touchscreen works perfectly and offers reliable operation. For other tasks, I might prefer physical buttons.

Now what I can't understand is that if physical buttons are so important to you then why'd you buy an e-reader that doesn't have them?
