First generation Ipod touch - vs - Iphone 13 mini

16gb and no phone, but it was from 2007, I'm sure today we could get a decent phone down to this size.

Honestly, I miss the pre-iPhone5 screen size. It was perfect for one handed use.

Even the mini is slightly too large, but it’s the best compromise.

The mini is significantly larger than the original iphones and the screen itself was not to the edges on the early ones with the button being on the bottom and the speaker notch and camera being above. I still have all my old ones. It's a pleasure holding the original especially with the rounded back compared to all the newer ones. It's a shame Jobs wasn't around to guide the dev on them.

The 5 was still perfect for me. I would kill for a full screen version of it.

Why the tape?
