What’s the best screen size for you?

    5.8” is my sweet spot. Just enough to be one-handable while still big enough for media consumption. 6.1” is my limit.

    4.7" 16:9

    And no, bezeless doesnt mske bigger OK. 4.7" was big 10 years ago, and is still plenty big if you ask me.

      Yup, that was the iPhone 6 screen. If Jony Ive’s dream of a glass slab would come true, a phone of that size (under 7mm thickness by the way) with a bezeless display would have been at around 5-5.5 inch. That’s what phones should be like now instead of horrible camera bumps and notches.

        Notches are completely fine imo. I thought I’d hate it but I really never noticed it. We didn’t lose anything when they added it

      Agreed.

      I will say I got to handle a galaxy fold 4 and if a screen has to be bigger, I don’t mind as much as long as it’s narrow like that phone. I was still able to one-hand it comfortably.

      I’d immediately upgrade to a phone with 16:9 bezel-less screen and non-rounded corners.

    5.8-6.3 range is pretty ideal. I’m running a Pixel 7 Pro rn and I like it but it’s too big.

    Alternatively I’d love a Fold 5 if it wasn’t so expensive lol

    The idea of “best” for something that people have different preferences about makes little sense.

    I’d like under 5.5" on a modern design with minimal bezels resulting in a device no larger than the Nexus 5. The fact that nobody’s selling such a phone makes me think most people prefer something else. Everything is huge now, but some are huger than others, demonstrating there’s still a range of preferences.

    6 inch is the perfect size for me. The S23 with no notch, thinner, lighter and even smaller bezels would be my dream phone.

      Surely that would become inconvenient at a certain point. Do you constantly plug your device into a 4K TV to get the most screen real estate?

    Again people, diagonals without aspect ratio is pointless, because there’s a lot of variation on the sizes.

    I think mine is 6" 16:9. The Galaxy Note 3 at 5.7" 16:9 was pretty damn close to my ideal. I still find phones a bit too small (read: narrow) for my liking.

    Not as much screen size difference as overall weight. Pixel 4 was good. Pixel 6 is a lead weight trying to get your pants off.

    I want as much screen as possible but not so big that I can’t fit it into my pocket so i think around 6.7-6.9 would be ideal.

    Best one? I wish phones under 6" and more close to veing just 5" were still a thing, so it fits pockets nicely and I CAN TOUCH THE OPPOSING DIAGONAL EDGE WITH MY THUMB

    Minimum of 6, since I do things like read comics on my phone and it makes it easier to see without having to keep zooming in.
