half pressing a button on the side is easier than sliding open ur phone, pressing 3 buttons at once and sliding it again.

Btw, just wanna point something out.. that you don't need to download anything.. just press CTRL-SHIFT-R and it will do what you said..
I am using the unlock switch on the side to wake it up (im at the desktop) then open the keyboard, hold ctrl + shift + then press r and then shut keyboard again.
Am I missing something?

Just imagine how many complaints they would have received if every user could easily set the device to auto-rotation. We'd have even more 'It no wrk, plz hlp??!!' threads.

Once it was wounded, M5 got no more. The only thing that was added, to my knowledge, was MicroB menus in portrait.

click on it and configure either the proximity sensor or the camera shutter to trigger the action "Ctrl-shift-r (Enable rotation)
