    I still have my Shamu! It only works while plugged in because the battery lasts about 3 seconds now lol

    I wish they still made wide phones instead of just tall phones. My mom uses big font size on her phone, but modern phones are so narrow it’s a bit annoying, she liked the Nexus 6.

      I’m kinda the opposite. Wide phones always gave me hand cramps but that’s likely because I have smaller sized hands I guess.

        Personally, when I’m looking at a new device, I look for the width because I really don’t like phones that are more than about 75 millimeters wide, because then when you add a case onto it, it starts to get uncomfortable to hold in the hand, at least for me.

      Tall phones are good for splitscreen apps and gaming. I do neither. I really miss 9:16 displays.
