6.7 inch screen. My Pixel 5 is already big. This one is an inch bigger in my hand and in my pockets.

Price increase. 875€ in Europe. The Pixel 5 was 630€. Do you really get 40% more phone?

Interestingly the non-Pro pixels have been trending in the right direction for size.

The Pixel 6 is 6.4"

The Pixel 7 is 6.3"

The Pixel 8 is 6.2"

If the trend continues we only have to wait 3 more years for a < 6" phone

I remember when such phones were in a different size category named "phablets".

They had huge bezels. I feel like current phones with huge displays are at most as big as then-phablets or even smaller.

Our thumbs haven't grown in the past decade and they now are expected to stretch longer distances. I can't even reach the opposite top corner with my thumb on my iPhone 13 mini

Stop me if you're head this one before but I'm going to tune you into a neat trick.

Use your other hand.

Yeah, no shit. I don't think that there's anyone who can't figure that out. The problem isn't "I can't figure out how to use my phone", it's that always having to use the phone with two hands is annoying as hell. Phones shine when you can use them one handed. They suck when you have to regularly use them two handed because they are so big.
