this. this. A hundred times this.

I am so sad that I lost muh htc one m7. Was the comfiest phone I ever owned. Fucking moto /g/ garbage is way to big. Why did I fell for that meme?
>>
anything over 5 inches is too fucking big. i have an lg g stylo and wish i went for the moto g.
>>
>>52986018
3.5" - 4.3" for small phones. 5.5" - 6" for large phones.
Anything in between is absolute shit.
>>
Depends on how tiny your hands are. ~5.5" is a good screen size for men.

5.1 inches is perfection

9 inches is the right size
btw my height is 7'3" and my penis size is 14 inches
>>
5.5 inches is probably the comfiest screen size out there.
>>
I have fat thumbs so I type gibberish on anything less than 5.5"
>>
As an owner of an lg g2 I think something a little bigger than my 5.2 inch screen would be comfy for me. I always feel a little cramped while typing stuff out.

5.7". I can one hand text and operate no problem on my LG G stylo. Seriously contemplating getting an LG V10 soon though.
>>
>>52986401
is that seriously the S7? That is a hideous phone. I mean physical aesthetics of a device aren't everything of course, but that just looks butt fucking ugly. Shit I though the S6 edge was bad to look at.
>>
For me i cant go back below 5.7

4.7 is already almost to big for my taste.
feels manlet

The big issue with lg is they do everything within their power to keep you from rooting your phone
>>
>>52986602
if >>52986430 is actually a real S7 pic, that is very fucking sad. I mean Samsung phones aren't the greatest, but that pic looks like a cheap Chinese knock off. Finger print attracting plastic, super rounded and overall a very shitty looking phone.

>They'll probably price the thing at fucking $800 unlocked too.

>>52986636
I think you're thinking of Samsung with their KNOX cancer. My Stylo has both root and custom recovery available for it. As does the LG G3 and G4.

9 times out of 10, the carrier has more to do with not allowing root/ROM flashing on a device. For instance
>Have Verizon Samsung Note 3
>Android 4.4.2
>Manage to root it using Towelroot
>Safestrap TWRP recovery onto it
>REFUSES to boot ANY other ROM other than stock.

EVERY SINGLE ROM would just boot to black screen. Had to flash back to bone stock with ODIN.

Hand wise/vision wise- 5.5" is just great. For a person with big hands its comfortable to type.
Also its great for reading.

Pocket wise - 5".
My pockets cant handle the length. I hate when my phone is bulging out.
Makes me feel like someone is going to try to pickpocket me.

probably 5.5
I have a 6P which is 5.7 and it's a hair on the big side. I've gotten used to it but it's a big of a stretch reaching the top of bottom depending on how I hold it. I'm 6ft tall, before someone claims 'baby hands'

in the pocket thickness is more of an issue than screen size
>>
>>52986094
I used to think this. Then I got a 5.3 in phone and I changed my mind. Then I got a 5.5 one and I changed my mind again. Finally I got a 6 in one and it was shit
>>
For me anything from 4.7" to 5.5" is very usable.
>>
I have tiny babby hands so 5 inches is perfect for me. Moto /g/ 3rd gen.
>>
>>52986999
yeah i have a 6p too. 5.7 is just a tiny bit too big. I think 5.2 would be ideal desu

5'11" king of manlets btw

how big are your hands?
I can't live with anything below 5'. The nexus 6 would be perfect, but i had to set for a 5.5 Zenphone2.

why? honor 5x is $200 and much better than zenphone

No bigger than 4 inches.

4.5"

I'm on a 5.7 in now (Moto X Pure). I don't think I could go below 5.5 anymore.

A good half of it tends to stick out of my pocket, but that's my fault for preferring girl jeans.
>>
>>52987655
Since when is 5 or 5.5 inches too big to carry? Get a slimmer phone, that has way more impact on carrying than the screen size. It's way easier to get modern smartphone phones in and out of pockets than old fat bricks.

>>52988083
learn some sewing and replace your pocket

5.3 in.

Currently with a 5.1. Getting close.

Xperia Z3 is totally fine for me and my hands aren't that big

Checking size shows that the screen is 5.2" and phone is 5.75"
>>
4.7'' - 5.1''

If it's bigger than that i'm guessing you carry it around in a purse

4.7 is comfier though

I've seen a fucking lot of women taking out those 7" monstrosities out of their purses. It's fucking hilarious, you'd think they're tablets to see a movie in the train or something but then they put a call or start texting on them.

Samsung managed to make a phone that looks like a cheap $30 knockoff of their older phones. Bravo

I'm on a 7" cellular enabled tablet right now. Fite me bitch.
>>
>>52986018
I'm not sure yet since I haven't tried the bigger models but absolutely nothing under 5" at least. Possibly closer to 6" but I can't confirm this yet. Maybe on my next phone.
>>
>>52986018
it's not just the screen size, but the overall footprint of the device. The 2013 Moto X is probably the easiest device to use with one hand, that still has a big enough screen no to fuck your eyes up.
>>
>>52988722
why do those phones show different times?

>>52986762
don't shit on the 3gs
that thing was fucking indestructible unless you tried
I thew an old 3g off my porch 3 times before the screen fell out before anything cracked

It was a truly epic phone. I miss mine.

I have a 5.7 inch phone (Note 4) and it's just fine. You get used to it and with adjusted DPI settings you can really achieve mini-PC comfy status.
