Phones have gotten way bigger again

There was a very quick 180 on phone size when folks figured out they could be used for porn

I would agree, if the aspect ratio for those big phones was still 16:9, but its not. These long ass phones are made for doom scrolling.

Doom scrolling porn?

[–] lud@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Or movies which usually aren't in 16:9

I actually went smaller with my newer one. i am 197cm tall and thus have lather large hands, still the phones were getting too big, went from One Plus Nord 5G to iphone 15 pro.

It's just the right size for me.
