Just finished watching MKBHD’s video “Small Phones are Dead and We Killed Them” yt indivio
I’m wondering, why is it that people buy big phones. Is it a conscious decision? Something that just unconsciously happened while selecting a phone? A lack of choice? What?
How’s the flip phone working out for you? Does it flip open to a screen big enough for you? I’ve seen reviews and reviewers are just puzzled by them it seems.

I love it. I’ve had it for a little over a month now and it works so well for my needs. It’s great to fold it open to 90 degrees when I’m on a video call so I can set it down, and likewise with YouTube videos - it does an interesting thing with the video controls that makes it easy to control media when I’m multitasking.
Size-wise the screen is perfect and I can type on it more easily than the Fold, but I have small hands so that may be a factor.
The weight is what really sold me. It feels like it weighs nothing, which has been great at the gym. The Fold in comparison was like carrying a brick and pulled down on my pocket.
I’m definitely sold on this form factor and will be sticking with it for a while. That being said, I do also have a tablet which I use for comics, ebooks, and meal planning. It came for free with my phone thru Verizon.
