Oh man, this phone is awesome. Even though it's tiny with its 5" screen. But after updating to 8.1 and Google giving me the AR Core and Stickers, I now have storm troopers and a demogorgon in my kitchen.

5 inch screen is tiny? My old HTC Desire was about 3.7"
:|
Just checked my curent phone (Xperia XZ Premium) and that's 5.46" and is verging on 'too big' (NJ).
You should film an X-wing from a moving car (as the passenger, obv) so that it flies along.

It is these days with most being at least 5.5", and then the smaller ones are usually low spec ones. I still have my Desire and apart from being slow I still like it.
Worth a try, although it likes to have a static surface to work on. Not sure if it will work when moving like that.

I wasn't happy about going to the 5.5" One Plus 3. It's too big for my hands
:C
I still remember the first time I saw a Samsung Galaxy Note in the wild. I thought it looked truly ridiculous. It had a 5.3" screen.

People used to think I was crazy buying phones as big as 3.8"
:O
When I went to my Note 2 with a 5.5" screen everyone thought I was MAD. Except one girl in a house where I was fitting a kitchen who thought it was cool. And 5.7", craziness.
I was expecting to go to a larger 6" (NJ) but this 5" screen is actually much easier to hold and use.

And this is the first phone I actually don't want to root. Except one thing: ads. Is there a way to remove them without rooting?

AdBlock for Android. A bit of a kludge but it (mostly) does the job.

If it works by acting as a local proxy it should block anything before it leaves the phone, and thus not count towards data usage.
Or just use
uBlock Origin
which is almost certainly better.
