    That’s literally my first requirement for a phone, that it be small and actually fit inside my hand without any straining. It gets harder everytime I need a replacement - like, dudes, if I wanted aa small tablet, I’d buy a small tablet. I want a phone.

      Yeah, same here. Except it didn’t get “harder” but simply impossible. There is not a single compact android phone on the market. You could get the iPhone se or the iPhone 13 Mini, but the compact iPhones are discontinued as well, so you’d switch ecosystems for a single generation of devices just to then be stranded again.

          That is wonderful. Got really excited until I remembered @Opafi said Android. Wish they would release it with a Linux OS.

          I have no loyalty to Apple at this point, but I am certainly not leaving just to end up with Google instead.

        iPhone 13 Mini

        That is surprisingly passable. I have been disillusioned with Apple for so long that I somehow missed a phone I would actually upgrade into intentionally.

        I have been kicking myself every since I went to a 7 after I got caught in the rain with my original SE.
