    I don’t want thin bezels - thick left & right ones improve fall protection, while top & bottom ones are a resting place for fingers in landscape mode & allow for physical navigation buttons and a full rectangular screen without notches or rounded corners. Also a smaller screen inherently consumes less power at the same brightness.

    5" 16:9 is 110×62 mm
    6" 21:9 is 140×60 mm, not accounting for shenenigans like rounded corners that technically decrease the diagonal

    I prefer the former, and I’m thus using a 2017 5.2" Samsung Galaxy J5 I got for $50 and upgraded to Android 10.
