All new phones are too fucking big.
- Counterpoint: my eyes are not what they used to be 20 years ago and 6,5...7" screens hit the sweet spot for useability. Especially since bezels are super thin these days so a 6,7" phone today is barely larger in total dimensions than a 5,5" phone 6 or 7 years ago.
- Pixel 4a checking in. 🙂
  
  My current phone, actually. I've been looking for newer at the same size or less, and it's pissing me off.
  
  Sadly there are no options. I don't really need a new phone, the hardware is still fine for me but not getting any updates sucks. At some point I might have to bite the bullet and get the 8a or something.
- This. Had to replace my trusted s10e. Picked the smallest I could get, which was an s23. It's too big.
- I wish Sony will bring back the XZ1C but with updated internals. Everything else can remain, even the 720p screen.
