Not only is that laughably not true
But even if it was true, it wouldn’t mean anything because being a flagship phone isn’t about size, it’s about showing off your tech.
But like I said, I don’t have to get hypothetical, because phones this big weren’t considered flagships in the past, they were considered “notes” and “tabs”
That’s pretty clearly not the grievance I was complaining about, I’m pretty sure you’re intentionally missing the point so that you can be contrary
Let’s compare the current day top dog, Galaxy S 25 ultra, against 5 flagships from different brands in 2012, including Samsung’s own:
Some of these had bigger phones like the Galaxy note, but these were flagships for their brands. These were the poster boy devices each brand trotted out to show off their capabilities. These were flagships.
And this is just Android phones, I’m not even considering iPhone or windows phones.
So get fucking wrecked. When they made phones as big as modern day flagships 15 years ago, they didn’t call them phones, they called them “notes” and “tabs”
I know, I said as much in my post - although rereading it, it’s kinda phrased ambiguously
He is wrong.
I’m asking for small flagships.
They used to make small flagships.
Flagship doesn’t mean biggest, it means best.
If settle for a small non-flagship phone with a flagship camera pod and display tech. But they don’t make those either.
The phone you see on that left is a pixel 7 pro.
Is the pixel 9 pro much smaller than that? Because I wouldn’t call the pixel 7 pro “small”
The phone on the left is a pixel 7 pro.
So, yes, by modern standards.
But no, as you can see by the comparison to the phone next to it.
And that’s kind of the point I’m making.
Lol who said I wanted “the smallest and most compact”
You’ve lost the plot here, take the L
Best doesn’t have to mean biggest.
I want all the fanciest best shit, and I want it to actually fit in my hand
It’s true. Idk why people are down voting you
Lol everyone disagrees with you about what the conventional meaning is. It sounds a lot like you’re the one who is ignoring definitions to bitch and moan 👋
