I like to ask a variety of questions, sometimes silly, serious, and/or strange. Never asking in an attempt to pester or “just asking questions” stuff.

I’m generally curious and/or trying to get a sense of people’s views.

I'm tired with all this Big-Phone-Elitism

I’m someone with relatively small hands, plus I want my phone to be on the smaller side since I prefer to use my tablet/computer/tv to watch content. But this trend where many manufacturers tend to keep futures away from smaller phones to drive people to bigger phones is driving me crazy and really makes it hard for me to buy...

ALostInquirer,

While I don’t disagree with most of what you mention, I do have to ask on a couple points…Isn’t it probably significantly more expensive for them to make foldable screens than to make a smaller phone? Also wouldn’t a larger device mean more materials involved which may mean similar or just as high costs as to engineer something more compact?

Also these are open questions, I’m not expecting you personally to know one way or another, your comment simply inspired them. If someone else has some insight on them, would be interested to read it!

ALostInquirer,

I hate hauling a small tablet around.

Don’t you mean a “phablet”? 😜 If that awful name had stuck, I wonder if it might have dissuaded the device enlargement.
