obviously they did exist. why do you think phone manufacturers would stop making them if they were as profitable as the other sizes?
Comment on Why can't we go back to small phones?

Would you pay $1000 for one? Economy of scales matters…
Plus everyone who did look at them would it is smaller it should cost less! Even though a smaller phone would be more technically challenging to build. Next you have compromises. No matter what you take out to make it work. People would bitch, I need that! I don’t need this other thing! Next battery life, people complain about current battery life, you think they want less?
I could go on, but I can easily see why manufacturers don’t want to deal…

It used to be the only thing you could buy. Then they started making bigger phones. Now everyone buys those instead. They stopped making them because people stopped buying them, not the other way around.
