Should you buy Xiaomi Redmi 9 (India) or LG G8 ThinQ? Compare the differences in functions and specifications/performances thoroughly

The size of the body has a big influence on the ease of carrying and one-handed operation. The narrower the width, the easier it is to firmly grasp and hold, but you also have to take into account the device's thickness. Also, if the width and height are smaller, its easier to operate one-handed since its easier to extend your fingers.
