Yeah, 6.7 inches is just a little bit too big, primarily just because it's too wide. I have found phones wider than ~75mm (2.9inches) are just too wide to be comfortable.

Must have small hands, have a Moto G60s (6.8") and its perfect for me

I want my monster nexus 6 back. I had that phone for almost 6 years because of the beefy ass screen.

Give me a palm sized ultrawide!

At some point, you'll increase the width so much, you'll just end up with a tablet in landscape.

Lol I've got pretty large hands, (thumb and middle finger touch when holding a 12oz can of coke), so I'm completely ok with this, as long as it fits in my pockets

[–] shortwavesurfer@monero.town 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I would say my hands are decently small. I generally find that I shy away from phones that are 6.4 inches or larger and try to stay between 6 and 6.3.

There can't be that many phones with 6 inch screens these days. What did you get?

[–] shortwavesurfer@monero.town 2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

I don't have a 6 inch display. I have the OnePlus Nord N200 5G which has a 6.49in display and is 74.9mm (2.95in) wide.

Edit: my last phone was 77mm wide and was quite a chore to handle. I will try for narrower next time as well. This isnt bad, but it could still be a bit better.
