Pixel 5 definitely doesn't have a headphone jack. It's also the biggest phone I've ever used! It is quite a nice device though.

5a has headphone jack. My 5a broke recently so I "upgraded" to an 8a and it's been exclusively worse. No headphone jack, fingerprint scanner barely works, effective battery life is less...

I guess I was thinking of the 4a. This is too long ago haha

It's also the biggest phone I've ever used!

Either you're confused or you've only ever used absolutely tiny phones. This is a 6" device.

Well it's my current phone and it's bigger than the last one. Have you only been using massive phones if you think this is small?

Have you only been using massive phones if you think this is small?

Yes, because the Pixel 5 was the last of the small phones, other than the Zenfone. They literally do not make phones anywhere near that small anymore, and haven't for years. It's 6.2" and up at this point. Go talk to anyone and ask to hold their phone and pay attention to how massive and heavy it is. That was the first thing I noticed with my Pixel 7 that I unfortunately traded my 5 for.
