The idea of the best screen size for a smartphone keeps changing. It was 5.2 inches in 2017, 6 inches in 2019, and between 5.9 inches and 6.5 inches in 2020 (tilted towards the bottom edge). Has this trend continued since then, or have we reached a physical limit?
A report this week suggests that Samsung may ditch the Galaxy S24+. Since the Galaxy S10, the S series has offered small, medium and large options. However, unconfirmed information suggests that the Galaxy S22+ is the least popular of his three, and if the S23+ performs poorly, Samsung may have the evidence it needs to drop it. .
The Galaxy S22 is 6.1 inches, the S22+ is 6.6 inches, and the S22 Ultra is 6.8 inches. The S23 series is expected to maintain its dimensions.
Smartphones come in different sizes and things can change
Apple recently dropped one size option from its lineup. Gone is the 5.4-inch mini, leaving only his two sizes of 6.1-inch (vanilla and Pro) and 6.7-inch (Plus and Pro Max). Google’s phones target similar sizes to the 6.1-inch Pixel 6a, 6.3-inch Pixel 7, and 6.7-inch Pixel 7 Pro.
Then there’s Sony’s 6.0-inch Xperia 10 IV, 6.1-inch Xperia 5 IV, and 6.5-inch Xperia 1 IV. A special mention of Sony is due to its unusual aspect ratio of 21:9. This makes the phone slim and tall. With the exception of Xperia, most phones are in the 19:9 to 20:9 range.

With reports of poor sales of the iPhone 14 Plus (even worse than the poor performance of the iPhone 13 mini), Apple may have realized that removing the screen size option was a mistake. Samsung may find the same if he removes the 6.6-inch model from the 2024 lineup. Or maybe not – how important is screen size when considering a new phone? Vote below or on this page.
