I meant the actual physical screen part that they are producing, to use that same part for just a tiny phone.

My friend was stalked for months via their airpods, which had been secretly paired with the stalker's account.

Can someone turn that front small screen into its own separate phone?

If you're used to Google Assistant in 2023, the bar for being amazed would be pretty low.

Would be better if it were optional. The little key in the status area is more than enough indication for me. A persistent notification is not a notification, it's a hack.

Lameness is the most important part of the Google Assistant experience.

And i just want a tab bar on Android tablets/foldables like every other browser.

Sure, but those are tradeoffs that are necessitated by the size, so it just comes down to a consumer deciding if they value more the larger battery, or smaller size. Personally i put a lot of value in the smaller size, so would be very accepting of reasonable tradeoffs to achieve it.

I also hope Google (or any major manufacturer) finds its way to include a smaller option in future lineups. :)

There's not any current flagship phone with (significantly) smaller dimensions, which is my main complaint.

My phone is an S22, for the singular reason that it was literally the smallest (Android) flagship phone available at the time. But it's still too big.

However my actual phone is irrelevant, even if it would be a ZFold the point is that i will not change from it until I see a proper small option.

For me "small" would be 4-5.5", and i don't consider the iPhone 15 Pro (or Pixel 8) to be small. I consider that to be a "standard" size these days (6"), where everything larger is "large" and anything in the missing segment of smaller would be "small".

I'm trying out Kagi atm, but it's not free. The alternative is basically "pick your poison". I think any "free" service will inevitably end up in the same sketchy shit all companies large enough are drawn into.

Still not sure where I land at the end of the trial; the cost is really pushing the limit of what I could justify paying for online search.

At least you have that option.

Pixel 8 is still too big for me. If they would release a Pixel 8 Mini I would love to buy that, even at the same price. Even at the Pro price if it had the same features.

Instead I'll keep holding out with my current phone.

No one is saying gender is the only point of discrimination, but this specific event is focused on gender issues.

The content from Twitter, but you don't have to log in to view it.

Luckily if you are looking for an even larger phone for a scaled up keyboard, you have plenty of options. I don't have the same struggle with the keyboard, and would happily use a 4" screen phone if one were available.

The smallest I've seen Sony recently releasing was the Xperia 5 V, which is 6.1". Similar to iPhone 15, S23, ZenFone and Pixel 8, just i think taller and narrower. I tried it in person, but it still felt 'big'.

I fear that too. But so long as my current phone holds out, there's no point buying into another compromise upfront.

That's the same size as an iPhone 15 or Galaxy S23, not "mini".

The only reason i don't buy it is because it's too big. Particularly for a phone i would commit to for a longer lifespan, the physical design needs to be without compromise, and i know that the moment someone releases a half-way decent mini Android phone, i will drop whatever phone i have and buy that instead.

Not sure it counts as a brandnewsentence if the brand new part is the word "again".
