6 inch is just the best of it all.. 2k screen is super cool with good battery.. A 2k on a 6 inch is just as appealing as.. I hate what Sony did with the recent flagship.. Anyways, I will always dream for the best phone of all time which is s20.. Slim, sweet and slick

                How many people's eyes are good enough to see the difference?

                  Back in the days, tv were big and men was slim. Now tv are slim while men are getting fat. Phones had lower resolution and bigger batteries. Now it's higher resolution and smaller batteries. Evolution is going the wrong way. When the mobile phone came out, it needed a big external battery to stay alive. Now phones are again in need of a external battery to survive a normal day.

                        So, 2014 was the year plus phones overtook regular phones, I wonder how long until phablets become the norm.

                          What an article. I like the idea of focusing screen and resolution. Its a huge change after all.

                            8000dpi tech already exist. 3D screens on the way. AR market growing. Kinda miss Moore's law, also better battery tech.

                              Anonymous, 10 Jul 20171080p is 2k. Or just a hair below. Quad hd is 2.5kWhat the hell logic you have? 2K is totally not 1080.
                              1080 stands for FHD
                              2K is somehow above FHD , I mean QHD or WQHD
