I disagree

I have a pinePhone pro, and I love using desktop UI Apps on it. But it is too slow and has too less battery for me to be usable

But I love high DPI on small screen without Zoom

I must confess, that I currently use an iPhone as daily driver, but to come back to the topic, I have a 12mini and my browser is set to 50% all the time.
