What are you on about? Just because someone is in a minority doesn’t mean their preferences or desires are invalid. Infeasible maybe, but not invalid. There are all sorts of products made for people in a minority of some kind. I can’t imagine left handed versions of common right handed objects are an extremely lucrative market, but there are products that exist for those minorities.

Plus it’s not like minorities or majorities are ever static, things evolve and change over time. If no one ever voiced an opinion, how would anything ever change?

You can keep crying about people stating a preference, and I’ll be sure to keep reminding you they are as free say what they want as you are.

I agree with you except the headphone jack part. My Bluetooth headset is great, but losing the convenience of using a non-battery device and not worrying about the battery life really is a great loss. I’m so glad my steam deck and switch have a headphone jack.

Much as I like Bluetooth, it’s another thing to charge, has lower sound quality than wired unless you can afford LDAC, and other technical and real life reasons it seems your low quality privileged ass can’t comprehend.

Read a book, truly embarrassing to read how you think.

I mean, the loss of the headphone jack was a downgrade for no reason beyond profits. Big screens were a tradeoff made on purpose because customers demanded it.

You ppl are a minority.

I just want a phone that I can use with one hand and not fucking drop the thing trying to type something on the other side of the screen.

Wow, what a low-quality take. See if your doctor can prescribe something to spontaneously regenerate some brain cells so you can imagine:

  • carrying a shopping bag in one hand and trying to see where to take it thanks to the smaller phone in the other
  • holding the brake lever on your bicycle and entering a new address
  • smaller screens mean less illumination area, meaning longer battery life
  • smaller screens costing less to produce, thus cheaper phones

Gotta suck to be so unimaginative lol.

They’re all pulling their chest out about who’s got the bigger

Yea, sounds like everyone you know is a tool. I don’t know anyone who behaves like this, it’s juvenile.
