Yes, that's what I assumed would be the case, which is why I kept saying things that happened "for me". I've long wondered if there was something a bit faulty about my specific device, which I've raised here and got no reply to — which means either it really is just my unit and what I'm talking about makes no sense to anyone else; or I really am a pain in the arse without intending it and don't known how not to be and that's why my posts get ignored; or I keep typing in invisible ink. Any of the three, it's frustrating.
But definitely, my light is resetting to 2% with a single tap. I'm not sliding my finger at all.
Other things I've noticed: if my device is in sleep mode and I pick it up by the right-hand side of the frame, without putting my hand near the slider switch or onto the screen, the device wakes up and starts turning pages; and if I hold it single-handedly by the right bezel while reading, and then a shift in my hand changes where pressure is placed on the frame, again not touching or moving over the screen, then the device will set a bookmark in the currently-open book, often multiple times on a single page. I wonder if the innards are seated properly inside the frame. Or is the frame really that insubstantial? (It'd help to know if others have experienced this — is it something to do with the build or the design of the device in general? — but I have no idea.)
I've referred this to customer service a couple of times, and their replies have been politely-phrased variations of "what you're saying makes no sense to us and we're going to do nothing about it". So maybe I'm
thinking in invisible ink as well.
