>>53687771
Looks like the bezel meme is back
>>
Thank you based apple
>>
Not really. I like my "phablet". Not looking to buy a phone with a screen under 5.5" because it would feel too small.
>>
>jobs decides that nobody needs a big screen
>years later they finally introduce a 5 inch screen
>applefags cum buckets over "muh innovation" "best screen of all time"
>few years later apple brings back small screen

Seriously though this is good, maybe the good manufacturers will ape Aplle like usual and start making phones 4.5" and less again.

>>53687824
5.5"? That's fucking ridiculous, impossible to use with one hand only
>>
>>53687952
my note 4 is 5.7" and I can use it with one hand
>>
>>53687771
tfw apple is using niggers in commercials...
It's 2016 ffs we don't need them anymore...
>>
>>53687972
You can touch the upper left corner with your thumb? I don't believe you.
>>

What do you call this? Apple literally gave in to the phablet meme
>>
>>53688110
That's surprisingly good, but I don't still consider a screen size operable if I'm unable to reach _every_ position on the screen, preferably comfortably.

I can reach the top to pull down notifications, hit the settings button, and type, so that covers it. I hold my phone with my pinky supporting the bottom. If I move the pinky away I can reach the opposite side
>>
Thank you applejeet, 10 cents have been deposited to your iTunes account.

>opposite side
*opposite side corner

Too bad most of the important buttons like 'back' are usually located on the top on Android phones. Have fun struggling to press those.

I've seen people use 5"+ phones, they always look uncomfortable or use 2 hands. It just doesn't work.
>>
>>53688154
I don't mind it, my hands are so big I can't imagine using a smaller phone
>>
>>53688226
>I've seen people, it just doesn't work
Nice conclusion fucktard, you seem real experienced with them, I'm using a 5.5" phone and I can use it with one hand as comfy as I used my 5" one, if you say otherwise that just means you're a fucking manlet.
>>
>>53687771
>Thanks Apple
What did Apple do? They didn't break the trend, everyone company realised that they can't just have a 6 inch version of their flagships.
>>
>>53687952

MANLET

>>53688057
I have a Nexus 6P, and no, I can't reach the whole screen with my thumb. Nova gestures help a lot, though; swipe down for notifications, etc.
>>
>>53688226
>Back button on top

It's on the black bar at the bottom desu

You know what they say about people with small hands
>>
>>53689008
home screen gestures are god tier anyway. I've been using swipe down the notifications and swipe up for app drawer ever since the G1
>>
>>53689175
Small feet?
>>
Nah. I kinda like phablets. Perfect for my hueg like xbox fingers.
>>
What has apple done? why is the phablet meme gone?
>>
>>53687771
If it was over Apple would be selling the SE as a flagship.
>>
>>53687952
I use my "big phone" with one hand all the time.
>>
>>53687771
That's not what a black person's hand looks like...
>>
The fuck is wrong with that guy's hand?
>>
>>53689388
he's black
>>
>>53689412
Oh fuck. Don't they have treatments for that these days? I heard bleaching is the "in" treatment now among people with the black plague.
>>
>>53689234
Given they put flagship hardware inside, they kinda do. We will see if they upgrade it to A10 later.
>>
>>53688226
>back button on top
That's iPhone you stupid fuck. You've never used an Android before have you
>>
>>53689008
I always have it set to swipe up.
