    Well, some people actually call turning the screen off locking for some reason, never mind there must not be one

    My way of avoiding the power button: long press K as others have said, and then swipe up and quickly swipe down, keeping your thumb on the screen the whole time.

    Why would you want to avoid pressing the power button? One touch, screen is off. Can't be any easier or shorter than that.

    You can actually just press the U button for the screen to turn on.

    If u want to turn screen off, while the backlit is on, just swipe up and bring it down again early, it will turn your screen of, works onlu when your mobile is locked

    Maybe power button is broken and is difficult to press properly, which happens to me.

    I do the swipe up to half screen an down to turn it off and before reading the long U press i turned it on pressing several letters like a piano. Kind of a horizontal keyboard swipe
