Phablet back to small phone, any one done it?

[colin79666]

Went from Nexus 6 to iPhone 7. Occasionally miss the screen size when watching video but otherwise much prefer being able to properly operate single handed and fit into any pocket. I miss my Nexus 5 now as they just seemed perfect in size and weight distribution.

It took a week or two to get used to the smaller screen size but fine with it nearly a year in now.

Where did you order it from?

Cheers, yes, it came from banggood. 2 weeks of cheek clenching waiting on a £425 box coming from china, but no issues at all and it arrived extremely well packaged.

Went from a 5.5" screen to a 5" screen. The 5" screen phone is a lot nicer in the hand and pocket and I don't mind the smaller screen at all. My next phone will probably be 5" again.

Update- immaculate condition Nexus 6p acquired, and moto g5 will be sent back Monday

With regards to the fit comments, in hand depends on hand and finger/thumb size I suppose. I'm a large in gloves rather than a Xtra Large and Im fine with it. If I was medium size then it may have been less suited. Have just measured and the Moto g5 is 1cm narrower in width than the 6p and thickness is same, so not talking a massive amount ergonomically to hold it.

Its is 2cm longer so that could be an issue for some if you need to reach top of screen with the thumb regularly.

My largest phone was a Sony Xperia Z2 and since then I've had an Xperia Z5 Compact and now an iPhone SE. I really hope it stays easy enough to get good, small smartphones. I find larger ones really annoying

For users of smaller screen phones the force zoom and text wrapping on the Opera web browser is excellent.
