I use one handed mode on my phone all the time because the damn thing is so fucking big. I can’t even reach the toolbar with my baby hands. I had no choice but to buy this one cause it was the only one with decent battery in my price range. If I didn’t have a purse it’d be impossible to carry it’s like a brick in my pocket. It strains my wrist a little from it’s sheer weight. Wtf is going on

    That’s why I’m holding onto my 2020 Samsung s10 for dear life. And when it inevitably passes to a better life, I’ll just get a refurbished one for a 10th the price of a new phone.

    Perfect size to hold with one hand and fit in most pockets, with good enough guts (it was a flagship when it came out) to run most current apps without issues.

      I also find 6.1" to be ideal and anything larger to be cumbersome. Dad got me a Galaxy S24 last Christmas, which is the same size as an S10 and the same size as the Huawei P8 I have fond memories of.

      Note: I actually wanted a Xiaomi 13, but dad buys everyone Samsungs and found that “too Chinese”, his words which he couldn’t elaborate on.
