I don’t want thin bezels - thick left & right ones improve fall protection, while top & bottom ones are a resting place for fingers in landscape mode & allow for physical navigation buttons and a full rectangular screen without notches or rounded corners. Also a smaller screen inherently consumes less power at the same brightness.
5" 16:9 is 110×62 mm
6" 21:9 is 140×60 mm, not accounting for shenenigans like rounded corners that technically decrease the diagonal
I prefer the former, and I’m thus using a 2017 5.2" Samsung Galaxy J5 I got for $50 and upgraded to Android 10.
Right?
I want bezels. And my notification bar and nav bar.
Hell, I want capacitive buttons around the perimeter, that I can assign actions to. Or just let me use a portion of the screen edge for buttons. I miss my blackberry and treo for this kind of customization - those permitted physical button custom actions.
Stop this immersive crap.
Those don’t really work through cases and are too easy to press accidentally. Tactile buttons FTW

Oh, real buttons? That’s way too much to hope for! Lol
I’ll check out key mapper, though I’d bet I’ve used it before…I’ve tried everything under the sun since about 2010. GMD Gesture controls has been on all my (rooted) phones since about 2012.
Oh, damn, Keymapper is essentially GMD but without needing root. BRILLIANT. Wish I had more upvote to give. Thanks!!
