      There was once a time when I swore I would not buy any phone larger than 5", that was when I had a 4.7" and couldn’t find it comfortable to reach the notifications one handed on anything larger. I’m now using a 6" and swearing I will stop here. At this point I’m really tempted to just keep buying new-old-stock pixel 5’s for the rest of time because I’ve moved the goalposts too many times now.

        IPhone 13 mini should still get updates for a few years, but then you’re on iOS and it’s not like Apple has an upgrade path for small phone fans these days either. It’s sad, but apparently people prefer bigger phones.

        I had a 6.3" phone and thought I wanted something smaller, got a 6.1" Pixel 6a and found it to be too small for my liking, now I’m using a 6.8" Pixel 8 Pro and honestly, I think I could have managed another 0.2" for a nice round number of 7", but there are no phones like this :D

        Mommy said my 5.4 is the best size ☺️

        (For the non /s people out there, I’m really taking about screen size, less than 6 is perfect but almost impossible to find today)

          Don’t forget that phones don’t have bezels anymore. A phone from a couple years ago with a 5.something inch screen and half an inch of bezel on either side is the same size as a 6.something today.
