The iPhone SE (2016) is the perfect size for a phone.What-s the point of the new phone being 2x faster if its 2x bigger in volume?It's not like the battery lasts 2x longer...
>>107257678lmao op dropping redpills on why we're all lugging around these brick-sized autism sticks called phones. iPhone SE 2016 was peak compact chad—fits in your pocket without turning it into a third nut, and who tf needs a 6.9" slab for "performance" when it's just cope for your microdick energy? battery mogging is a myth, it's all planned obsolescence so apple can farm your shekels every 2 years. small form factor arc is the real skill issue, we're out here dilating for foldables while flip phones were the superior tech tree. bring back the nano-SIM era or we're cooked boys, pack it up into these dysgenic dustpans we call "flagships"

>>107257678because dumb fucking cattle niggers use phone as PC.t. still using OG SE
lack of choice is the problem as always
people use smartphones for everything (managing funds, shopping, watching movies, video calls, web surfing, video/photo-graphy, gaming, calendar, note taking etc.) and for a lot of things a bigger screen is more comfortable.I do often miss the time of small, "dumb" phones, that felt like the sweetspot for this technology when everybody had one and could communicate with others from wherever but with a lot more limitations
>>107257678iPhone 5 with edge to edge is peak smartphone (including headphone jack).Normalfags watch movies on their phone so want larger screens.
>>107257678This anon >>107258132 beat me to it, but yeah. Normals are doing almost everything on their phones nowadays (from messaging and entertainment to banking and work) so it makes sense that they want more real estate on their screen even at the expense of some portability. It's why pic related is a real product that exists and other manufacturers may follow suit.Desktop computers (and specially laptops) nowadays are essentially just for gamers and the special breed of autist that browses boards like this.
>>107258204>Normals are doing almost everything on their phones nowadays (from messaging and entertainment to banking and work)this is also why billions need to die
>>107257678If you have more people at your Thanksgiving table, you need a bigger table. As technology becomes more capable and is used for more things, it needs to become larger to accommodate such.
>>107258204>It's why pic related is a real product that existsI'm not even sure what I'm looking at, but it reminds me of the "socks" people used to get for their cellular phones.Anyway I remember a friend telling me that he didn't understand why he should own a pc (he didn't), that was almost 10 years ago
>>107257678>the perfect size for a phoneiPhone 12 mini the perfect one. Got 6 years ago. Still in "use" (permanent air mode) with 68% battery capacity.>a.k.a. the ones who dont have a computerwill u go outside with portable 4g travel router(wifi AP like GL-E750V2) and hardened thinkpad? is it better versus 7 inch shovel?
>>107258204These awaken my inner David.
>>107258341>will u go outside with portable 4g travel router(wifi AP like GL-E750V2) and hardened thinkpad? is it better versus 7 inch shovel?no, the iPhone Mini is the perfect size like >>107258341 saidbut subhumans do everything, from gayming to watching movies to editing spreadsheets and Photoshop and banking and doing their tax return on a 7" phablet with locked down shit OS with no file manager and no keyboard, because they are too stupid or poor to even use a Windows laptop
>>107258445and to add to that, governments (digital ID, E-Gov) and banks (APP 2FA) now think everyone has a smartphone and make possession of a iPhone/Android with mandatory Apple/Google account mandatory to participate in adult life. Degoogled Android, Linux phones, desktop/laptop users are excluded.
>>107257910Women don't have pockets in the first place.when you think about it, a phone being pocket friendly was really never much of a draw for most of the populationOn the other hand they have smaller hands though so Maybe their hands are getting bigger
>>107258204I browse here from chanceInfinitely better than using a PCUnless I want to dump manga or something, only time when PC is better. Or I need to use .gay
>>107257678idk, I have 6.7 and would like it to be bigger, 6.9 would be perfect for me.I don't hate small phones tho, they're cool too, I used to have miniature one 2.5 screen or something like that, would use it over summer when sim swapping was not such a big deal - no govt and banking stuff on phone.
>>107257678Because people decided they like to watch videos and look at pictures on their phone.
>>107257678I'm only a 5'7 tiny little man so I always go for things like an s25 which are sized accordingly and I never struggle with tablet size phones. I don't know what the fuck you are on.

>>107258458I have yet to run into this issue. The closest thing I've seen is needing to scan QR codes for restaurant menus. I don't think there is a single thing I've actually needed a smartphone for that wasn't doable with computer.>t. Autist who switched to Unihertz Jelly Star 3" phone

>>107257678i was about to buy the iphone se 2022 a few days ago because i wanted a phone with front fingerprint button, and why not latest specs, and the ease of repair (screen & battery)but it is true that a iphone 5se from 2016 is not a bad option, they are very cheap, you can get one for $30, nobody want these anymore, they have decent cameras, and they are even easier and cheaper to repairI also took in consideration loss or theft, i'd feel pissed to lose a $130 se 2022, while i wouldn't care much for a $30 iphone se 2016you made me reconsider my decisionsthe only thing that can change my mind is app compatibility, i need a few apps like banking, and whatsapp if possible as my familly use this to keep contact, these are known to not work on old iosfor the price i might get one just to try for a while
