The Pixel 7a is almost the same size, just 0.2 inches bigger. Unlike the S10e, it is still supported by Google and gets security updates (until 2028). And you can install a better, more secure Android ROM like GrapheneOS.
Not quite sure about that. Wtf is that aspect ratio?
I’ll have to figure out of I can see it in person, because it reminds me of those 2000’s crappy ultra wide monitors that claimed a normal size but because they were extra wide it ended up being smaller.
[Edit]
Ah, it was the Asus Zenphone. I was going to get the 10 because that remained <6" and I still might because that aspect ratio on the Sony looks insane. I don’t know how anyone could reach the top of that without a ladder.
Anyway, the Zenphone 11 only comes in 6.8". Which is stupid.
everyone i suggest to complains about the aspect ratio, and sony does a terrible job showing what theyve done to mitigate it lol
theres handy sidebars to pull down the top drawer, and a quick shortcut to pull the screen down to reach the top one handed. i got used to it in the first week or so, and love the extra verticality while still feeling like a small phone in my hand. good for doom scrolling and watching a video while doom scrolling
I’m still on my Galaxy S10e.
The last normal sized phone with USB C and a headphone jack.

Phones without a headphone jack can take a flying leap off a tall bridge and fuck themselves on the way down
sony is trying to fill that role, i like my xperia:3
Ah, I thought the latest ones were going big again. I’ll have to check them out.
the 5 series is pretty much just the flagship but in a reasonable size
