    Do you have a specific model in mind?

    I mostly ask because I'm curious who actually makes small phones nowadays. It seems like the tendency of smartphones over the past few years is to get bigger, not smaller.

    they made A TINY IPHONE AND now they made an even cheaper and tinier one

    I have a Galaxy S8 (2017's model) that I bought "pre-owned" in 2018.

    And, like, I just kinda intend to stick with it until it actively starts to frustrate me?

    I keep looking at prices on new phones, but none of them have enough compelling features or design to make it worth the cost of replacing my current one, at least not to me.

    Oh, I am...in WAY too deep on the Google front.

    I got one of those Google Home smart speakers for Christmas last year, so I have that set up, even though the only thing I really use it for is playing music and setting alarms.

    i was really shocked w/ how hard it has become to get all of the evil off of your phone now

    Yup. And if you have a Samsung phone, like I do, there's a bunch of Samsung junk in addition to the Google junk.

    Please stop trying to make Bixby happen, Samsung. Nobody's ever going to use Bixby when you can get Google Assistant on the same phone.

    Amusingly, you can use the Samsung store to get some apps without using the Google Play Store, and without making an account on either.

    The fact that apple still makes small reasonably sized phones is the only thing that has ever made me want to buy an apple tbh.

    I just wish they would put decent screens on them. After having used an AMOLED display for 7 years, I refuse to go back to backlit LCDs.

    This is, like, the one tech thing I’m actually elitist about, and even then, I only really care as a personal preference. I don’t, like, look down on people for using phones with LCDs.

    We can do anything if we do it together.
    I've been wanting to get off Apple for a bit now, and I admit when I finally do I will miss the relatively small screens of iPhones.

    Got over my weird shame and bought a new Mac, so nevermind this post, lol.

    iPhones are indeed nice.
