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!

So frustrating! The Zenfone was the closest thing we had to a compact phone. Why does this keep happening????

My zenfone was the only phone I could buy at the time that was under 6 inches and had good specs. This is frustrating.

Don't Sony still make compact phones?
