    5.8-6.3 range is pretty ideal. I’m running a Pixel 7 Pro rn and I like it but it’s too big.

    Alternatively I’d love a Fold 5 if it wasn’t so expensive lol

      Yup, that was the iPhone 6 screen. If Jony Ive’s dream of a glass slab would come true, a phone of that size (under 7mm thickness by the way) with a bezeless display would have been at around 5-5.5 inch. That’s what phones should be like now instead of horrible camera bumps and notches.

        Notches are completely fine imo. I thought I’d hate it but I really never noticed it. We didn’t lose anything when they added it

    The idea of “best” for something that people have different preferences about makes little sense.

    I’d like under 5.5" on a modern design with minimal bezels resulting in a device no larger than the Nexus 5. The fact that nobody’s selling such a phone makes me think most people prefer something else. Everything is huge now, but some are huger than others, demonstrating there’s still a range of preferences.

    Not as much screen size difference as overall weight. Pixel 4 was good. Pixel 6 is a lead weight trying to get your pants off.

    6 inch is the perfect size for me. The S23 with no notch, thinner, lighter and even smaller bezels would be my dream phone.

      Surely that would become inconvenient at a certain point. Do you constantly plug your device into a 4K TV to get the most screen real estate?

    5.8 - 6.2" and I personally prefer a longer aspect ratio. Makes it easier for single handed use.
