    On one hand, when you put a case on the phone, it’s not as bad.

    On the other hand, that’s a lot of real estate for a bigger battery that’s completely wasted.

      I wonder how much such a thing would weigh. I don’t need/want a week’s worth of battery.

      Still no room for headphone jack

    Well, i hate it. Every single phone I’ve had sucked compared to the one before it, ignoring the capabilities of the soc. I miss my pixel4a compared to my current pixel6a. When I had a galaxy7, I hated it compared to my galaxy2. Nothing compares to the original droid, that was the best phone I ever had.

    Now there’s a new phone? I bet i’ll hate it.

    So this is the idiot we have to blame for the ugly and annoying camera bump. Sad that it seems like there is no going back to a phone with a good design. Camera bumps are awful and not worth the tradeoffs.

      Yeah, I have the Pixel 8 and the camera bump is annoying. I wish they’d make a slim version with a crappier camera, because I honestly don’t use it much and would prefer a sleeker phone. My old Moto G Power was fantastic for this, but unfortunately it’s out of SW support, and I would really rather not switch my phone again just because SW support ended.

      I really want a PinePhone, but the SW support for features I need leaves a lot to be desired.

    At least it’s symmetrical so it won’t rock, unlike every other phone out there now, including the one I’m typing on.

    Imagine… a 3+ day battery if the battery thickness would increase to make the back flat.

    Thin phones are NOT the future, long battery life is.
