Compact Phones

Phones are too big. We've come to accept that 6" phones are normal, and we're mis-sized. But just a few years ago, people hated big phones. We complained that they were uncomfortable to hold, didn't fit in our pockets, and that these phones were "clumsily oversized." Now big phones are all you can buy. Why? Did everyone's hands and pockets get magically bigger? Are phones big because manufacturers want us to drop them?

Whatever the reason, we know what we want: We want small phones!

Outside of the Apple iPhone Mini, I only know of 2 compact phone projects:

  1. Small Android Phone Project From the team behind Pebble, Beeper, and Beepy

  2. OneDevice From Pierre Boyer, a designer behind cool projects like this PC desk build.

Does anyone know of any other compact phone projects out there?
