The idea of the best screen size for a smartphone keeps changing. In 2017 it was 5.2 inches, in 2019 it was 6 inches, in 2020 it was 5.9 inches and he was somewhere between 6.5 inches (tilting towards the bottom end). Has this trend continued since then, or have we reached a physical limit?
A report this week suggests that Samsung may ditch the Galaxy S24+. Since the Galaxy S10, the S series has offered small, medium and large options. However, according to unconfirmed information, the Galaxy S22+ is the least popular of his three, and if the S23+ performs poorly, Samsung may have evidence that it should drop it. .
The Galaxy S22 has a 6.1-inch screen, the S22+ has a 6.6-inch screen, and the S22 Ultra has a 6.8-inch screen. The S23 series is expected to maintain its dimensions.
Smartphones come in different sizes and things can change
Apple recently dropped one size option from its lineup. Gone is the 5.4-inch mini, leaving only his two sizes of 6.1-inch (vanilla and Pro) and 6.7-inch (Plus and Pro Max). Google’s phones target similar sizes to the 6.1-inch Pixel 6a, 6.3-inch Pixel 7, and 6.7-inch Pixel 7 Pro.
Then there’s Sony’s 6.0-inch Xperia 10 IV, 6.1-inch Xperia 5 IV, and 6.5-inch Xperia 1 IV. A special mention of Sony is due to its unusual aspect ratio of 21:9. This makes the phone slim and tall. With the exception of Xperia, most phones fall in the 19:9 to 20:9 range.
So, barring outliers with very wide aspect ratios, what is the ideal screen size? Vote below or this page.
With reports of poor sales of the iPhone 14 Plus (even worse than the poor performance of the iPhone 13 mini), Apple may have realized that removing the screen size option was a mistake. Samsung may find the same if he removes the 6.6-inch model from the 2024 lineup. Or maybe not – how important is screen size when considering a new phone? Vote below or this page.
