But depending on which hand you use to hold your phone, this may not be the most ergonomic layout for you.So the left-handed folks out there—not to mention those of you coming from a Samsung device—will be happy to know that this ordering is not set it stone. A flashable ZIP from developer Zenoran will allow you to easily swap the positions of the Back and Recents keys on your Nexus 6.
