Self-labelled neo-Luddites and the tech-stressed are searching for phones with fewer features. Industry experts cite precarious profit margins and a wobbly market around this need.
I see you and me are looking for a similar phone. I want to be able to comfortably hold and use it with one hand.
As someone else mentioned Unihertz makes some smaller phones that aren’t limited in specs but some may be too small for my tastes. I am still looking to see what would be a good size since I want to be able to type on it with some comfort.
The S4 mini wasn’t quite that small, but typing comfort on small phones depends entirely on how comfortable you are with using swipe/gesture typing, as that’s realistically the only normal way to do it - any on-screen buttons are just too tiny to hit accurately unless you go landscape.

This is a phone you can barely hold in one hand, but can’t actually do anything with it because your thumb maybe reaches 25% of the screen unless if you dangle it precariously on your palm.
