Yeah, this is ridiculous. Notice how all the models on the page have big to giant hands? One of my earliest smartphones was 4.2". That was already problematic

One of my earliest smartphones was 4.2". That was already problematic for my hand. 5" is too large, 5.9" is out of question. I don't want a tablet for a phone. I want a phone that I can use with just one hand and still reach all corners of the screen comfortably with my thumb from a firm grip (i.e. not from the side, but with the bottom right corner firmly tucked in the palm of my hand, if that makes sense). And my hands are not even small.

The Nexus 5S was the last phone I owned that I could comfortable hold and had a 4.9" screen (diagonal), but with a 70.8% screen-to-body ratio (5.43 inches tall). This Zenfone 9 has a 5.9 inches screen (diagonal) but is less than 1cm taller, and exactly as wide as the Nexus 5S.
- docmars 4y agoThis comparison makes me even more excited for the Zenfone 9 — I miss my Nexus 4 and 5 specifically for their one-hand-friendly usage.
- llamaLord 4y agoBe careful though, that 1cm extra height means the one handed balance will be super top heavy and it will fall out of your hand much easier.
