Poll: what size smartphone do you think is ideal?

The popular edition of The Verge published article, in which reviewer Alison Johnson shares his opinion: 6.1-inch smartphones are optimal for 2022. This is an average value at which a balance is maintained between the dimensions of the gadget and its autonomy.

Compact devices like iPhone 13 mini (5.4") and Asus Zenfone 9 (5.9”) are considered niche and do not sound attractive to all users: for some, the screen is small, for others, the battery life does not suit. The other side of the spectrum can be off-putting too: the Plus, Ultra and Max versions at 6.5” and above are already too big for anyone to comfortably hold in their hand.

If in 2014 5.5 inch iPhone 6 Plus was called a phablet, now the approach to content consumption has changed and the 6.1-inch screen has really become the golden mean: it can be found in iPhone 13, Pixel 6A, Galaxy S22 and dozens of other devices. It is noteworthy that all these are basic models in their lines, designed for the widest possible audience.

This, however, does not mean that all users want exactly this size, and do not make compromises based on the available offers. And what display size do you think is optimal - and why? Tell in the comments!
