Bigger screens mean bigger and more obtrusive ads.
I'm convinced this is 90% of the reason right here.
Because most people don't buy them?
It's like asking "Man, why don't they make slider phones anymore?" (and I loved my slider phone).
Why does it need to the most people buying them. Why can’t it be a minority?
As a lover of small phones, unfortunately that's the truth. Apple tried a couple years ago with their iPhone mini and sold very few. Still, there should be enough of us that maybe some smaller phone manufacturers could fill this niche.
And maybr make it fully unlocked and repairable, replaceable battery, etc. while they're at it.
Porn. Next question
Ummm we did? My pixel 9 pro is noticably smaller than my pixel 6 pro, much to my delight. Maybe stop buying the XL tablet phones and you'll find they're actually a reasonable size again. So many people in the comments rallying against an issue that isn't even there. You're just being told this is an issue. Do you even check for yourselves?
this right here is the issue, people don't even remember the size smartphone used to be. I've got a phone that's one of the smallest available that still have decent hardware. the screen is still 6.1 inch. your example of a reasonable size is 6.3 inches.
what op and I are actually looking for is something around 5 - 5.3 inches instead, like smartphone used to be. For that size, all that is available today is no-name chinese phones with shit hardware and no support. the big brands are busy selling 6.2 inches as "compact" where it used to be considered phablet size
there is one option.
well and a couple others that are also made by Unihertz depending on your needs/wants
more companies making them would be cool but the general consensus I'm reading here is that there are 0 and that is incorrect.
As long as they don't stop making ones my current size (which is also my navi for my motorcycle), then they can make whatever they wish. I think mine (Pixel 6 Pro) is perfect size.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
