>You have users here mentioning that since the sales for 6.1 and 6.7 inch size options for smartphones tends to outpace the sales for the smaller devices you’re begging for, it can be assumed that those 6.1 and 6.7 devices are more popular.

I agree with you here.. that is literally the definition of "popular". Yet again though, I'm not sure what point you're making. I did suggest a truth to another poster, which was that people purchasing things doesn't tell you why they're purchasing them. That would be making assumptions. And when you make assumptions, you make mistakes.

I agree with you though that, yes, by definition a thing that is in greater demand is "more popular". So high five there.

The concept of dimensions ties in with proportions, so I'm not sure what point you're making. Of course I am aware of what extrapolation means, but thank you. The very fact that you post the definition (lol) suggests to me that that either went completely over your head or in fact you and others are the ones extrapolating all the while suggesting that I am. And of course the latter's the case.

The fact remains that there are avg dimensions (and yes, by extension, proportions!) to the human hand. Given that, it seems reasonable we may have an intelligent conversation about designing a mobile device meant to fit in your hand. The fact of random fanboys, some of whom like you have exhibited bullying behavior (what a surprise) coming in here and telling me that it doesn't fit their hand is irrelevant, or that I am somehow talking in terms of "extrapolation" when I speak of statistical averages. I'm really not sure where you're getting lost.

To put it more plainly, the SE Gen1 fit better in more people's hands. Yes, because of the dimensions of the avg hand. And yes, because of the proportions of the avg hand. The definition of proportion follows from dimension (it's a ratio of measurments). If human hands somehow had the same proportions but there was nothing meaningful we could say about their average size (statistically speaking) then you would have a point. But that's not the reality, and I certainly hope you're not suggesting it is. The avg iphone user cannot use an iphone 14 in one hand comfortably or such that they can reach the entire screen. The thumb cannot swipe (in right hand) from bottom left to top right. Does that mean no one can do it? Of course not.. that much is obvious. But again, stop literally doing what you claim I'm doing (extrapolating rather than speaking in terms of statistical averages) and then claiming that somehow refutes my logic. It doesn't. You came in here to attack/ridicule me with your comment - an obvious strawman. And it didn't work out. If you can intelligently refute the arguments above.. go for it. Unless you're going to come up with new definitions for these words or somehow change how science works (you know, basic math), I don't imagine you're going to have much success.

That's what I thought.. lol, silence.

You gonna get your mob crew to downvote this?

It's obviously fed his ego, and he's more than comfortable subjugating and putting down others. We're left to wonder what insecurities he may be entertaining, and while I think I have a good comprehension, I'm not going to lay that out here. I do hope he learns to make it not quite so obvious.

Now I would expect all sorts of slow counter-arguments, mostly fallacious in nature... things about oh I'm not this or that (strawman arguments). I don't think you'll find one actually intelligent counter-argument, but that's just my opinion. After all, this poster apparently has an iPhone 14 Pro, so obviously he's better than I am.

Ok, just for the record (for readers), this is not an extrapolation. By definition. The poster (@Temetzcoatl) apparently does not understand the english language.. lol. The meaning of words is important, and I would encourage more people to research this. I don't see any of these bullies on r/iphone attacking Leonardo's "Renaissance man", and claiming that there are no meaningful observations (or measurements) about the human body because some people are taller than others... lol. Yet you see the same borderline slow reasoning posted here, obviously from people that struggle with even the most basic logic.

I am still waiting for u/Temetzcoatl to explain how this is an "extrapolation", and I wait anxiously insofar as that is literally impossible. He's got an iPhone 14 PRO though (and a stamp for us all to know!) so apparently he's a big deal. Shame on the rest of us. :/

You are the first coward I've come across that's too dumb to provide an example, and at the same time claims that's a ridiculous request. lol! Did you drop out of college or was it just not your thing? I appreciate the attempt to bully me but I think your time would be better spent elsewhere, imo. If you keep responding with dumb comments I will continue to embarrass you . Frankly, you're making it too easy.

Assume I just get downvoted to hell at this point..

Can't see another outcome (3.7m people, yet no counter-argument). Bullies that came in first have already vanished (along with their "comments").

Negative 2? lol. Who is downvoting this?

If I'm wrong, why can't you make an argument?

Yeaaa... long story short.

You know you're making your point when the downvote to actual counter-arguments ratio is so high - in fact, as high as it is here. Thank you to the haters and bullies that jumped in, many of whom have since swiftly deleted their personal attacks (presumably embarrassed).

I hope this remains a place where people can freely express themselves. I am an iPhone fan and will continue to be. I bought the original iPhone and iPod Mini before that. I've also had the larger iPhone models over the years. But I don't appreciate being attacked because I don't favor an iPhone 14 or in some other manner am not toting the company line. I noticed the weak trend to flood these types of posts at the same time in the hope of overwhelming the original poster. Their arguments are usually rather tame and often littered with logical fallacies and poor comprehension. When they hit any resistance, they abandon thread and jump to the next. I hope more people can express their opinions (however unmarketable!) more freely without feeling threatened or suddenly outcast. If that's the vibe, it's not something I want to be a part of.

You're a jabrone bro! ... Jabrone!

.. Bro!

How did you know?! ;-)

Is it okay if I screenshot this?

Once again, thank you for showing your true colors and attempting to bully people on this subreddit. We're all so impressed.

Lol, you got emo. Thanks for signaling my victory. :-)

Anytime you want tips, send me a DM.

No, thank you brother. Quoting statistics is, according to you, "outrageous overgeneralization". Did you have a hard time with math in school?

I appreciate that you came in here to bully me, but you're not going to win and it's certainly not something I admire. If you have an actual scientific argument to make, please share it. I've never encountered someone though so obliviously throwing around terms like "generalization" without understanding their meaning.

If you'd like, you can DM me and I'll share some resources.

Careful though man. Think up something a little more intelligent this time.

I want a challenge! ;-)

Do you have an actual counter-argument or did you just come in here to bully me, and suggest I'm "living under a rock" because you disagree with something I say? You seem like a coward that ran away because he couldn't think up a counter-argument.

Look forward to more of your unbelievably obvious commentary!

Would have to acknowledge that in earlier times stimulating the cortex like that would almost certainly involve a lot of physical activity (you, in motion). Not the case anymore with these massive digital displays.. all those lights dancing around.

I'm assuming because they stimulate the visual cortex so much (and that's such a large part of your brain, from what I understand). Totally guessing.

lol, good point. Have you noticed the larger screens are literally harder to pull your eyes away from (involuntarily)? Have such a gravity to them.

Yea.. hope it comes back. I've noticed businesses are pitching tvs to sell "bigger", "better" too more than ever. I was looking for a 42" recently and it was in the smallest size category (an obvious subconscious hint to buy bigger). Part of it is the engagement of course, which is almost hypnotic with digital displays and therefore good for business.

Lock those eyes on the screen.. right. Another mosquito flies into the light.

It's actually not.. lol. In fact, not even close. You seem to have a hard time wrapping your head around what an assumption is. When someone buys a phone, you know nothing more than that they bought a phone. Implying that you somehow know their mind and what they care about is absurd. Once again, you're not going to win an argument with someone by making more assumptions than they are (just as a general rule of thumb).
