Just finished watching MKBHD’s video “Small Phones are Dead and We Killed Them” yt indivio
I’m wondering, why is it that people buy big phones. Is it a conscious decision? Something that just unconsciously happened while selecting a phone? A lack of choice? What?
I bought the smaller Pixels until they started making them worse than the big ones. This is purely due to availability. If they offered a smaller Pixel Pro that matched key specs of the larger model (cameras, processors, ram, storage) I’d get it.
Smaller phones fit better in pockets, are “big enough” for the purpose of a smartphone, weigh less, and hurt less when you accidentally drop them on your face in bed.
Right. I’m looking at pricing. I’m looking at battery life. I’m looking at technical specs. More importantly, I’m looking at reliability. Already had a phone that conveniently died at the 27 month of life (24 months of warranty…)
If they made smaller versions at the same price, Id consider it. But it’s not a major driver.
