The iPhone SE is dead, and with it, the compact smartphone as a mainstream product. What happened?

    I remember that term. It was short-lived.

      Yeah, because nobody wanted to call a phone a phablet. It’s a stupid name.

        Phablets were more like an iPad Mini than an iPhone Pro Max back then. They were huge compared to the biggest phones around. I remember seeing people talking on the street with highe phones pressed to their cheeks.

            It’s wild how the Samsung Galaxy Note was considered a large phone when you look at today’s phone sizes.
