According to Apple and rest of the sales numbers: yeah, it seems so. All the small phones pretty much don't sell... like at all.

Your best bet might be Samsung Galaxy S22.

Low sales from smaller phones is more likely because the smaller phones aren't just smaller, they have fewer features.

It's not an apples-to-apples comparison. Going from a 6 Pro to a 6 doesn't just mean it's smaller, it means going from a 120 hz screen to 60 hz and losing the telephoto camera, ultrawide front camera, 512 GB storage option, and ultra wideband support.

Going from a Pixel 6 to a 6a gets a lower-quality, 60 hz screen, loses the 256 GB option, and gets only a 12 MP front camera.

Put all the features of the 6 Pro into the 6a form factor, and THEN you can have the apples-to-apples comparison and decide if people actually want large phones.
