Sigh.. One plus pro 7 weight

I think people don't understand how damaging carrying a heavy phone is daily all day almost. The lighter the better for you.

This is a hilariously ridiculous statement. We're talking about a matter of a few grams to an ounce difference.

I feel you. I am going to pass on this phone. I wear a vest, two pair of hand cuffs, two mags, expandable baton, and other gear on a daily basis. If I add 210 more grams it may cause irreversible damage.
 
A weighty phone to me feels more secure. I like light phones too but weighty phones feel more premium to me. So I'm all in on it.

I agree 100%...... Just wear a heavy-duty belt on your pants so the Plus7 phone don't pull down your pants when you are walking 🤣

I don't want people knowing if I'm a boxers or briefs guy. I like to be mysterious.
 
This got me wondering. So, I put my Op6 on a scale; 200 grams.

Does the Pro weigh more with the selfie camera extended?

:p
 
Man, 25 grams over the weight of my 6T. That could really effect gas mileage when I'm using it for navigation. I think I'm out.
 
Maybe if you wear your pants like this, I could see it as a problem

Damaging? Uhh... Definitely don't agree on it being damaging unless you have some kind of brittle bone disease or something.
 
162.6 x 75.9 x 8.8 dimensions. Trust me, lots of people are going to understand later when they hold it how big it is and unwieldly that can be. Especially if they put a hefty case to it too.

Agreed. I can't remember the other phone I had but I didn't like how light the LG V30.

It felt cheap.

Maybe on Jupiter

I can somewhat agree with "unwieldy" as some think even XL phones are too much and I don't -- so that is opinion.

You literally said there would be physical damaging issues from it which I think is kind of ridiculous. The phone isn't heavy enough to cause people damage lol. Big difference in "the phone may feel huge" to "it will hurt people" :P.
 
If you use your pinkie to prop up the phone in your hand, yes a heavier phone can strain your hand and give you an RSI.

If you hold your phone at eye level so you're not straining your neck to look down, it could wear out your arm, too, but that's less of an issue when you sit down and can prop the phone up on a table (or at least prop your elbows on the table).

It's not going to strain your back or arm instantly like lifting a truck tire would, it's a slow cumulative thing over years and years of heavy use. When I don't use a phone grip on my devices, my left pinky gets mad at me by the end of the day because I inadvertently pinky prop.
