    I’m still on my pixel 3 which is line at the cusp of the size i can handle. I want smaller but every new phone is bigger. It’s so infuriating.

        So it is. I wasn’t ready for a new phone when it came out and I’m still not a fan of punch hole cameras. I’d rather have a forehead and chin.

          Same, lots of accidental screen presses on my 4a.

          I’d rather the HTC stereo speaker bezels

            Curved screen edges are also the worst for that. The glare on them also makes them mostly useless visually. Don’t know why they caught on so much

      The #a line is usually a bit smaller then the flagships. The 4a was the perfect size. 3a was huge compared to it. 6a is slightly larger than the 4a. The 6 is massive compared to the 6a

      I’m on a pixel 3 also. The size is important but the front facing speakers are amazing. I can’t find anything else like it.
