Until I purchased a Pixel 8a, I thought the same thing.

I discovered that all the newer pant models that I purchased have bigger pockets, so that's not a problem anymore.

I just hope that all the newer body models I purchase have bigger hands.

I have probably normal hands, and I feel that the pixel 8a is perfect, and that I could use a bigger one too.

You can choose the size of the keyboard, if this worries you.

That doesn't solve the weight problem.

Modern phones weight the same as the old ones...

A couple of days ago, I walked 20.000 steps on a mountain trail, and I didn't notice a problem with my pixel 8a in my pants' pocket. Holding it is not a problem too.

"Just buy bigger pants" is the 2025 version of "you're holding it wrong"?

No, I simply noticed that all my very old pants (that I don't use anymore), have very small pockets, and that all the new pants have very big pockets. My opinion on small vs big screen is all based on that.
