Guys... You just can't walk the street with a small TV sized phone in your pocket... It's outrageous... 5 to 6" should be sufficient. Also more than the ppi density, the battery life is more important.

    Nokia N9 as an Android phone is what hmd should launch in 2023

      Below 6" for me, small hands and i have to work, take care of home etc don't have much time to be watching movies on the phone or gaming etc
      Phone for me is calls, messages, some social network, photos/videos and banking. 6" is more than acceptable for that. Oh and has to feel comfortable in my pocket because that's where it always is.

                    Well… Aside from screen size, I really miss the older 16:9 proportions.

                          Hanif Fikri, 15 Jan 2023i hate 20:9 ratio or taller like 99% smarphones nowadays so... moreI totally agree bro
                          20:9 really looks UGLU
                          Best aspect ratio is 18:9 with 6"

                            I am s20 user (6.2inch) and I hate small phones.
                            Size should variate between 6.5-6.7inch.

                              NeonHD, 15 Jan 2023Ultimately I want a large screen, but not too large. So ... more6.3'' and Flat screen but it has not 1" Camera :(

                                Flat or Edge Screen is most important than size

                                  Daemon Targaryen, 15 Jan 2023I'll only go for a large phone if it packs 22,000 mAh ... moreIf it can do USB hosting, lack of sd card slot is not a major problem.

                                    Why is there is no option bellow 5 and 4"? I have phone with 4,3" (samsung galaxy s4 mini) screen and it is little big for me, ideal would be 3,7-4". Nokia 5230 is optimal size phone.

                                      Ultimately I want a large screen, but not too large.

                                      So 6.55" would be my ideal size. It's considered large in the grand scheme of things, yet it's still more compact than a typical 6.7" phone.

                                      I think 6.36" from the Xiaomi 13 is also the perfect size. Not too small and not too large.

                                        6.1" is perfect for me... Unfortunately very few phones are offered in this size, so I am using a Vivo X90 Pro+ which is a huge chonker.
