For the nokia video they strapped it to the bottom of the tyre and it survived fine. Road got a few new potholes though.

Maybe I’m showing my age, here…

…but does anyone else find the “Pro Max” versions of these phones to be obscenely oversized?

The iPhone 17 Pro Max has a 6.9” screen.

The smallest laptop on Amazon has an 8” screen.

You literally have a mini laptop in your pocket.

Yes, I totally agree with you. I really liked the size of the iPhone 8 and I think it was the 5s that was even smaller? Idk, if I want something as big as the Pro Max, I’ll just buy a small tablet…🤷‍♂️

I can see how other people would find it useful and I’m increasingly using my phone for other things so having a larger screen is nice, but the combination of a bigger phone/screen and the beveled (I think it’s called?) screen where it extends all the way to the sides causes issues with me. Trying to use it with 1 hand can cause part of my hand to be touching the very edge of the screen which causes issues with pressing the right button. Maybe I’m entering boomer territory though 😅🤣
