In the same situation here, have an iPhone 11 that is due to be replaced.

The iPhone 12 is lighter but has worse battery life, so that one is out.

The Sony Xperia 5 II is the current favorite as it has very good battery life and no annoying notch.

And the recent Apple vs Epic case is making the switch easier.

I'll definitely consider a Sony for my next purchase. I wish they'd bring back that super-compact design they had years earlier.

The current display tech required for a compact phone is quite expensive at the moment.

Some phones do exist already such as these:

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5G https://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/galaxy-z-flip/

Motorola razr 2020 https://www.motorola.com/us/smartphones-razr
