    I hate this trend. it's been like this for quite a few years now.

    Finding a new phone that isn't too big is a challenge. My current phone is on the smaller side for today's standards and it still looks huge compared to my old iPhone 4s.

    I wonder how people who buy those big phones fit them in their pocket. It must be annoying to carry and use.

    i hated that iPhone followed the android market and dropped the smaller size. but it's been even more baffling that out of the 50 android phones that are announced every year, that not a single one of those companies has released a smaller device. wildly untapped market and any one of them would have had that portion of the market cornered.

    give it 6 months and we'll be seeing smaller devices across every other company now. the entire industry is a bunch of followers.

    Is 5G the main attraction of the new phone? I'm prob missing some tech stuff but I feel like every year it boils down to "um the camera is better and also it's more waterproof i guess." I mean it's def worth upgrading if your phone is 5+ years old, I'm just questioning how people still buy a new model every year lol

    also WTF @ the screen getting even bigger lol I have an 8+ and have large hands and I already feel like this has passed the upper limit.

    I need to get one due to way better battery than my 8. The fact there is no charger nor earpods included is a joke though.

    main attraction for me is that the iphone mini is a smaller device. as close to the original iphone 5 in size as we'll ever get.

    If I hadn’t upgraded last year to the iPhone 11 Pro Max it would be worth the upgrade, it is a nice new line up But I’m gonna stick to what I got for a couple years along with my trusty iPhone 7 Plus as my back up.

    I don't buy Apple products, I'm hooked on Android and Google through and through (I have in the past) but I admire Apple as a company so much and always excited to see an iPhone announcement. Looks like this didn't disappoint.

    I went apple a while back when I never thought I would and I've loved them since but when the Google Pixel came out it peaked my interest a little. Any experience with it?
