A SMALL MODERN PHONE!!! I really hope this gets picked up by the LineageOS community and supported for many years, like the Poco F1, which I've used for many years very happily.

I also really hope more manufacturers produce non-giant smartphones, that'd be so cool!

It’s basically the same size as the iPhone 14/14 Pro and the Samsung Galaxy S23.

Not sure why this one gets so much press as a compact phone.

Very true. Same height/length, and wider!

Miss my Sony Xperia Compact. Would love to see that form factor again.

3mm narrower width is not minor difference IMO

but "iPhone 14/14 Pro and the Samsung Galaxy S23" ARE compact phones. At least by modern standard. They're not talked about as such because they're flagships deliberately made smaller so Apple and Samsung can charge more for the ultras

Samsung galaxy s2 was small, with 3.5mm and microsd and removable battery.

This is large phone with none of those of things.

May not be comically humongous, but... Feels like we are just falling for the tag line? The 5.9" dimension is on the first scroll.

It may not be small compared to all phones, but it is the smallest phone you can buy compared to any flagship android phones in the last 3-4 years

I stand corrected! I looked at photos and specs and completely missed it yesterday! Thx
