Get a flip. That seems to be the format that most manufacturers are looking at for a smaller option. I had a friend who was small phone obsessed as well and nowadays he just uses a dumb phone and is starting to turn into a kind of Luddite.
Comment on The iPhone 13 mini is dead, leaving small phone lovers in a lurch
aksdb@feddit.de 1 year agoThe only worthy ones I found were Samsung and Pixel. At least in regards to update duration. I don’t like Samsung’s customizations though. So I effectively end up with Pixel. Which would be fine… but that doesn’t solve my initial problem of wanting a “small” SmartPhone. At least not at the time I bought the iPhone Mini.
Since Apple buried the Mini series, this might very well mean this is not only my first, but also my last iPhone again. Time will tell.

Not yet good enough for me. With small I don’t just mean width and height. Also weight and thickness. Even the Xperia XZ1 Compact I had was too bulky for me, even though width and height were perfect. But it was heavy and thick. So are the flip phones.

The Sony Xperia series is reknown for being extremely nice phones as well, the only reason I don’t have one is that I don’t know if you can build grapheneos for it or not.
