    That will be a side effect of them locking abitrary features behind the bigger and thus more expensive models, if there was feature parity smaller phones would probably still be the norm.

      Yeah, I only got the Pixel 6 Pro because of the zoom lense…i would not have chosen it otherwise. It’s too big…

        Me for the pixel 8 pro. I’d rather the regular pixel 8 but if I’m going to keep this thing for 7 years (which I will; typing from a pixel 2) then I want it to be as feature rich as possible. Not looking forward to how big it’s going to be when it finally gets delivered

      There is simply less space inside smaller phones to add same features and battery as a larger model.

      And then they can’t justify small model having same, high price as pro versions, so they cut features to go along with reduced price.

      There are some features that just can’t be equal between a bigger phone and a smaller one (or would require gimping the bigger phone) like a bigger screen (obviously), bigger battery and more size for larger camera sensors

      Not true. Many of the smaller phones on the market have additional features that the bigger ones don’t. Or at least they used to when they existed.
