They still have a readership, unfortunately.

The New York Post had a huge “Blame Canada” headline on June 8th, so… Yep, very literally.

Doesn’t solve the small hands ergonomics aspect, but yeah, bigger pockets would be nice. I’ll take whichever quality of life improvements I can get, though.

I’m a woman with small hands and unfortunately smaller pockets. I don’t need a thinner phone - I need a shorter, narrower phone that’s comfortable to hold and that won’t peek out halfway from my jeans.

So for me, the flip phone format makes a lot of sense, because companies seem intent on offering me Large or XXL Max Extra only in terms of candybar phones.

That said, I don’t think it should be the mainstream, never mind the silly hyperbole that “every smartphone should be a flip phone”. We just generally need more size/format variety in the market.
