Miss proper small phones with 6-inch screens or less? Unfortunately, more manufacturers have bad news for you.

    I typo a bit too often, but I am a big dude with big meaty fingers. The max volume is kind of crappy, so I use my Bluetooth more than I otherwise would. Three day battery life. Easily fits in a pocket. Barely fits in a change pocket.

      That’s awesome. Though a better camera and chip is what I need. 4-5" screen is impossible to find with midrange specs.

        Yeah, and I just use it for calling, texting, and the occasional podcast, so… Still, under 200$ CAD, and I wasn’t sure I’d get any use out of it and it’s been since October.

Phones are too big. We’ve come to accept that 6" phones are normal, and we’re mis-sized. But just a few years ago, people hated big phones. We complained that they were uncomfortable to hold, didn’t fit in our pockets, and that these phones were “clumsily oversized.” Now big phones are all you can buy. Why? Did everyone’s hands and pockets get magically bigger? Are phones big because manufacturers want us to drop them?

Whatever the reason, we know what we want: We want small phones!
