  I don’t think the base model iphone, galaxy or pixel are small. What I meant was phones like the iPhone minis, pixel 4a, S10e, etc.

  I mostly agree with you but have a small observation. You are using the screen size to argue that the phones are small but you are mistaken. The iphone se has a 4.7" screen as compared to the 6.1" in the iPhone 13 but in terms of phone size, the se(138.4 x 67.3 x 7.3 mm) is only 9 cm shorter than the while being just as wide and thick. The mini is smaller even though it has a bigger screen. There is a similar issue with the nexus phones you give an example of. While the screens were much smaller, the phone dimensions weren’t as drastically different to the standard 6.1" premium phones now because the older phones had much bigger bezels.

  my big issue is that when manufacturers go with a small screen, they usually also think “budget phone”

  Wait I thought the situation was different. The only small phones I see are models of premium flagships while the budget segment has humongous monstrosities because designing a small phone with decent packaging and heat dissaption requires much more R&D

  There is a serious market for people like me

  Unfortunately this just seems to be not true. Samsung, sony, google, apple all had smaller phones in their lineup at one time but eventually pulled them from the stack because they were not profitable. Don’t even get me started on the small phone scene in the budget segment. Absolutely no options exist. The unfortunate reality is that while small phone enthusiasts like us are very vocal, we a vocal minority and not enough of us exist who can make designing a smaller phone viable for companies.
