I consider that to be a good reminder that there is no free lunch: If you build such a small smartphone, you suddenly don't have enough space behind the screen for a flat battery anymore, forcing you to increase the depth of the device to fit an adequate battery. You then end up with a device with a similar volume as one with a larger screen.
- em-bee 6y agoit still makes a difference, i struggle to use my current phone one-handed. reaching the other edge with my thumb is always a pain. i welcome a smaller but thicker phone.
- nomel 6y agoI get hate every time I demonstrate mine, especially from males, but something like a pop socket really makes handling a phone a much nicer experience.
- brnt 6y agoYou're not wrong, but I'd still rather see phones that aren't thin slabs fully touch sensitive ob one side. This design is but no means ergonomic. I'd kill for a Blackberry again. The Q5/Q10 really hit the sweet spot for me.
- TheSpiceIsLife 6y agoHow do you not snap the phone with one of those on it?
- nomel 6y agoI don't understand the question. The pop socket doesn't apply any force. I suppose if you sit on the phone it could bend easier. I do not do this.
- panpanna 6y agoFrom my experience with xperia mini the added thickness made it much more comfortable to hold and use.
- TheSpiceIsLife 6y agoThat’s fine with me. The iPhone SE was a good size but had terrible battery life from day one. I’m now using an iPhone 7, and it too has terrible battery life, with the added benefit that if I take it out of its case I cannot hold on to it for a sustained period because it’s so thin and has no real edges to speak of, just large diameter radii.
- JadoJodo 6y agoAre you using the 2020 SE or the older one?
- TheSpiceIsLife 6y agoThe older one. Was using. I read the 2020 SE is the same size as the 7, so meh that makes it completely uninteresting.
