    It’s 6.3" because of the lack of top/bottom bezels. The phone itself is not much bigger than a Galaxy S7.

      You are genuinely the first person I’ve seen online who understands screen size != Phone size, because bezels exist and are different sized from phone to phone.

      My current 6.3" screen phone is virtually identical in size to the 4.2" one I had in 2012.

        Bezels or not phones are still too large to be comfortable to use for many people.

        5.8" with no bezel would be a great size. Something comparable to an old 4-4.2" phone.

            Yes but that’s still 2.1" too large to be comfortable to use for many people.

            My 6" Pixel is just as uncomfortable to use as my 4" Nexus S was. 99.99% screen to body won’t change that fact.
