Comment on Why can't we go back to small phones?
IDKWhatUsernametoPutHereLolol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 hours agoConsumers just aren’t that interested in a product that’s visibly cheaper and worse than what everyone else is carrying. And that is what a smaller phone signals.
A smaller phone is less comfortable to view things on. Most people are using their phone as their main device. Its not just a “status” thing.

Correct, as the article points out. Sites aren’t made with smaller screens in mind, and 62-68 percent of web traffic is made with phones.
Phones are not JUST a status thing, but having a better one is certainly more appealing to consumers, rather than a device that they and others know is purposefully gimped.
