I know I have small hands but c'mon. Flagship phones these days are strait up small tablets, not even what we'd have called on phablets 15 years ago.

I know it's what people buy, but I'm still sad that if I want a phone that small then I have to deal with camera and display a couple gens old

every time i "upgrade" my phone it gets bigger, i hate it. the perfect size was what whatever iPhone 5 was doing, i want to go back to that

Wider, longer, flatter, thinner, and harder to hold without touching shit at the edge of the screen. I miss being able to grip a phone by its buttons.

iPhone 12 or 13 mini is similar to that size

i don't use iPhones anymore, that was the one time i tried them and aside from the size and some features i much prefer the openess of android

I've never owned an iPhone, and wouldn't normally recommend them at all, but looks to me like its one of the only recent smartphones that is small 😞

[–] Venator@lemmy.nz 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Actually looking into it a bit more: there's some smallish ones such as the Asus Zenphone 10 and foldables such as the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra.

But yeah they're still not as small as the iPhone 5

I loved my iPhone 5 more than any other device I've owned. Perfect size.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago (2 children)

iPhone 5 / original SE was a good design, and a good size, but it was also the first iPhone I had to buy a case for because it was so damn light and thin it was hard to handle compared to the thicker, glass-plated 4.

It's one of the best ones to come out recently, but it's still significantly taller than the pre-iPhone 6 models

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

iPhone 4S is still the most perfect form for a smartphone I've ever owned

[–] sheogorath@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Oof this is the reason why I went with Fold. Basically when folded it takes almost the same area as an iPhone 5 albeit quite thicker. But my hand adjusted to the thickness quite nicely.

Having basically a small tablet when you unfold the phone for actual two handed use is good too.
