They have, and people preferred smaller phones.
 help



People didn't prefer shit. This is a supply-driven market, vendors put out whatever they want, and we deal with it.

Did you forget how to not buy things?

No, but everyone else forgot this is a possibility and are increasingly making the mechanisms of social and civil life dependent on possession of a modern smartphone.

And then they got larger again.

Due to the things inside them that people did want.

> They have, and people preferred smaller phones.

Are these smaller phones in room with use right now? Where can I buy an iPhone 8-sized iPhone? Or an iPhone 4-sized iPhone?

The only ones who "preferred" "smaller" aka thinner phones are Apple with their psychotic "it's thinner again" yearly presentations.
