Is there any good small Android phone?
Is there any good small Android phone?
I like the feeling of holding and using a phone in one hand. I am using a Pixel 5 right now, but it feels a bit too large for me. I know nobody makes phone that small like the iPhone 4S or the Samsung S3 mini anymore, but is there at least a phone smaller than the Pixel 5? Maybe around the size of a iPhone 12/13 mini?
EDIT: There is a small Android phone project in development for anyone interested: https://smallandroidphone.com/

Xperia XZ2 Compact (2018) here. Running perfectly with LOS+microG.
But as the phone is starting to fall apart, my desperation is setting in.
I think my Pixel 5 will hold on for a bit longer, but I am starting to worry that there just might not be another small Android phone.
Do you have any issues with touch? My XZ2-C has weird touch issues that make it hard to use. Where I touch is different from where it registers the touch 1 mm above. Kind of a bummer. Also, no voice over wifi on Verizon. The phone supports it, but not on VZ network.
MicroG, is that just the stripped down Gapps package?

I never noticed that, I can even comfortably play Lemuroid. What I did notice, is that as the phone gets older, it more frequently wakes the display up without activating the input. So I sometimes see the picture but can't interact, until I turn the display off and on again. Seems to be related to physical wear.

No idea, not US.

Something much better: the only free software reimplementation. You can get it integrated into the ROM. And yes, you can install Google Maps onto that
.Whoa. I'll have to check out mircoG. I've got LOS on my XZ2-C. Didbyou have to sideload mircoG?
Were you able to get VoLTE working on it? If so, HOW!? I only gave mine up kicking and screaming after the US 3G tower shutdown. Or well, after over a year of paying for a separate line & flip phone to make calls on.
...and now I like having 2 lines so I kept the flip phone.
...and I still use the LOS XZ2c like a mini tablet because I hate the stupid huge screen on its replacement.
I carry 3 phones now. Please send help
