Looks like a solid choice. I like the matte plastic back and wireless charging. This is a good recommendation for a mid price phone, although personally I am not a fan of Pixels barebones android.

This has nothing to do with shrinkflation. Just an oddity of the US lumber sizing.

2x2 is not a structural type of lumber. Houses use 2X4 or 2X6 for structure.

Samsung went S9-S10-S20. Note changed to S Ultra. Their mid range is AXX which isn't intuitive for the average person. Plus the intermittent FE models. Apple has made the SE which isn't obvious. They've changed their lineup too.

I'm not sure why this comes up in every Sony post. Their naming scheme is dirt simple and stable unlike other brands. 1 is flagship, 5 is their midrange and 10 is their low end. Mark number is generation.

Simpler than pro, max, plus, FE, lite, 5g etc from all the other brands. I swear people just like to bitch about Sony.

Significant for me. Not sure if vsync is working.

Its just this attitude that allows the 401k middlemen to exploit the market and influence our government. People think it benefits them, but it really benefits other people more.

So, not in the US then.

Yeah the problem is not the design, it's the manufacturing.

Looks like more generic ODM Chinese phones. With a somewhat no-name processor. Nothing to see here.

You responded to me, in a post about Minnesota votes ......

Well we don't have that problem here and I was talking about Minnesota voters.

Yeah so you can waste a vote by voting undecided or you can at least attempt to nominate someone other than Trump on the Republican ticket.

In Minnesota you don't have to register with a party, just pick a ballot.

I chose to vote against Trump instead of making a misguided attempt at hurting the better real candidate. When you all get Trump again and he doubles down on Isreals actions I hope you regret it.

Making a product made to discourage usage is always going to fail. Palm phone had everyone excited because we wanted a good small phone. Instead they made an intentionally bad small phone and wondered why no one wanted it.

When I ran ABS I used acetone and a scrap piece to make a glue that worked flawlessly on glass.

Think about local or state elections. It pretty much is a one player game in many areas.

Bezels stopped mattering a long time ago. The overall height of this phone is 6mm taller than the zenfone and 5mm taller than the iPhone.

You're saying if ford discontinued all models except for the F350, we could call the short box version a compact truck.

6mm taller is a lot when you're looking for a small phone, especially using one handed. 3mm is a lot for width too. Now compare it to a true compact like the iPhone mini or Sony compact series and it's huge. Personally I would not call any of these compact, and if you are going to include a phone with a 6.3" screen, then it loses all meaning.
