I like big phones (and I can not lie)

Didn’t Apple just come out with one or am I mistaken?

I have an iPhone 15 Pro and a recent Pixel (just because I’m a dev and want to know both ecosystems). I use the iPhone as my daily driver, though, not because it’s necessarily better but because I cannot help myself when it comes to tinkering with Android devices. I have semi-bricked several over the years and then had to install Windows in a VM to run some sketchy-looking factory reset program.

Basically, it’s not an Android problem. It’s a me problem. I’m the one who needs a walled garden so I don’t do science experiments.

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.

Also on a Pixel 6 Pro, no way would I want a bigger phone.

Still on mine, would say that I'm still not thrilled with the side edges being so very rounded off.

Shit battery capacity, bloated OS causing worse battery life, and not enough people actually buying them.

I’ll continue to carry my iPhone mini since there isn’t a comparable option
