> It's interesting that a reasonably sized phone is now a selling point in itself.

Sony was the last one in Android world to offer it to us. Now, even they chickened out.



Looks about the same as Pixel 3 screen (5.5" I believe).

That's what I'm carrying now and it's the only reasonably sized phone I have had in years. I would love a 4.5" or 4" phone.


I don’t care about the size of the screen. I care about the width, and to a lesser extent the height.

The 12 mini looks just about reasonable, will find out next month if it actually is.


Sony hasn't had a true compact phone since Xperia XZ2 Compact. They abandoned the line after 2018.


The rumor is they'll release a new compact next year.

For now the Google Pixel 4a/5 are the most compact decent phones you can get.
