I don't think diagonal screensize is the most fair metric here... bezels have gotten much, much, much smaller.

Compared to an iPhone 4, which I think is a lot of people's idea of a "normal" sized phone, a Pixel 6A 32% longer, and 22% wider. It's also 30% heavier.

Oh, absolutely. I'm all for building smaller phones. If I could get a Pixel 3a new today, I absolutely would be using that.

I'm just saying that GP is being a bit disingenuous in setting this trend at the feet of Google or manufacturers of Android phones when Apple, too, has been increasing the size of their phones and cutting smaller products.

The issue is the duopoly itself.
