    To me that’s the exact and only purpose of a phone: for it to be a handheld portable computer. For that purpose I should be able to use it with one hand

        To me that doesn’t really compute. I like to see a lot of information on my screen and my eyes aren’t as young as they were.

        I do too, but glasses help a lot. In my use case 5" is plenty, though not with default settings: global UI size was tweaked so everything is smaller, and more fits on screen.

        I don’t really like looking at curved screens

        Neither do I, and I’m doing everything I can to avoid those phones. No feature can balance that huge con.

        Flat screens aren’t as easy to do that with especially as I like to use a case.

        Hmm, interesting. I’m using gestures too, some more than others, and with a flat screen it’s fine for me.

            True that I don’t use a case. It has fallen apart years ago and didn’t bother to get a new one. I was using gestures while I had the case, too, but I don’t remember how was it it usability.
