On-device AI features aren't that useful for consumers yet, but long battery life is.

          So this thing looks absolutely amazing, but still sports a 19oz size(560g). For reference, my phone is only 7oz (201g). The steam deck (roughly 22oz), which i regularly hold with two hands, can start to cause pain in the wrists.

          I’m sure the kind of person to buy this phone isn’t holding it for numerous hours, but thats still A) a lot of weight to lug around B) I’d imagine it will begin to strain the wrists quickly. Maybe that’s a pro though…

          Edit: Mind didn’t complete my thought, added words.

            Wow, that’s only 100g less than the Steam Deck… That’s nuts.

          It’s 6.8", that’s called a tablet or phablet at that point. Change my mind.

            Phablet is the new phone. The term was introduced around iPhone 6 Plus era, now look at the average size of recently released phones and compare it to the 6+. I have a 6.8" phone and I sometimes wish I got a tablet with cellular lol

            How so? My phone screen is 6.4in and id hardly consider that to be tablet sized. Anything smaller physically hurts me to be honest.

          If that had a screw on antenna, and a smaller Flashlight, I would replace my pixel 8 for that.

            Flashlight brightness is usually adjustable on phones

              I bet you didn’t even look at that flashlight.

      Damn and here I thought my 13200Ah phone I charge once a week was big. I wish more phones went down the route of massive batteries, it’s so much better than being thin and barely lasting a day of normal use.
