I'd rather have a battery that lasts a week on one charge and can be replaced in 5-10 years.
"Display upgrades" just means a brighter screen. It's the new thing these manufacturers "upgrade" every year now that resolutions and refresh rates have stabilised across the industry.
I rather would have a device that is not as locked down and bloated as Samsung's to run grapheneos
I just want the return of the Mini. Upgrade the display to 4".
You probably want a 5" since displays now go right up to the edge of the body.
No, I want the smaller bezels to enable a smaller physical device that keeps a ~4" screen. Ideally not exceeding the dimensions of the OG iPhone.
That would be roughly 4.6 inches, don't forget that modern apps don't work well on very small displays like the UniHertz Jelly.
I used the Jelly for a while, mostly it worked very well, only a couple apps had layout issues. I think it was just slightly too small at 3", and 3.5 - 4" would resolve basically every app layout issue I had with it. My biggest problem with it was actually that the camera was awful.
I'd rather have a camera with complete lines, not just the top.
I would be concerned if not.
