Pixel 5 is the best phone ever made. It was small and light yet durable, and had a flawless rear fingerprint reader and a headphone jack.
Pixel 5 definitely doesn’t have a headphone jack. It’s also the biggest phone I’ve ever used! It is quite a nice device though.
my theory is that (most) people want their money’s worth. if you have two phones, one bigger than the other, but you don’t know the prices of each, the perceived value of the bigger one is higher, even in they’re both the same price you wouldn’t assume right away that the bigger one had to cut things out to offset the bigger display.
phones are also a big gift item, and people are not concerned with niche likes in those cases.
I’d say that the increased popularity of foldable phones currently speak of our desire of smaller phones (my partner at least says it’s the reason she loves hers) with a higher perceived value. I hope marketing departments are taking the right notes from these and not that foldable is better.
- Companies started making bigger phones
- People bought the bigger phones
- Companies stopped making smaller phones
why did 3 happen because I never stopped buying them. I had a Pixel 4a that I used until it almost exploded. I’m on a 6a now and this thing is uncomfortable. I miss typing with one hand.
You’re not “most people”. “Most people” want to watch movies and TV and other sorts of media consumption on their phones, and having a larger screen allows one to do that with ease.
Why do people buy TVs? I feel like people forgot we used to have deligated tools. I can open a can with my pocket knife, but it’s not the ideal way to do it… ugh
Do you carry your TV with you to Dr appts? To work? To the bedroom or kitchen?
Didn’t think so.
Jackass I’m not watching movies and TV at Dr appts and at work. I make food in the kitchen and I have a TV in my bedroom like an adult.
Good lord it reminds me of the “this movie boring aah” where the dude is watching fucking family guy om his phone in the movie theater.
Edit: this is what you sound like.

My wife and I also make food in our kitchen and have a TV on each floor of our house, including our bedroom. However, the TV in our living room (which is on the same floor as our kitchen in an open floorplan) does not - and cannot - face the kitchen at all, so when we are making meals or whatever in the kitchen and want to watch a show, we use our phones. And when I have a dr appt (or I’m on my lunch break), I’ll watch stuff on my phone while I’m waiting.
Is there anything else you want justified, or are you just gonna move the goalposts again?
i’m not moving the goalpost, I’m standing by what I’m saying. I dont need my brain to be constantly stimulated by media to function in day to day life.
Watching porn it’s better on a bigger screen. Duh.
