I just mentioned this in a comment, but thought it might be helpful for a larger audience. I’m not affiliated with these people, but I would really really like a smaller Android phone. They also seem motivated to try and make something happen.
Might want to look into Unihertz. Specifically: https://www.unihertz.com/products/jelly-star
3 inch screen.
Cool, I didn’t know that existed.
But honestly, I want something like a 4-5" screen, what used to be normal, it would actually be a hand-sized device.
The unihertz Titan slim has a 4.2" screen, but the body is larger because of the physical qwerty keyboard.
I own the Titan Slim. I have an odd need for the physical keyboard.
I would be wary. I bought a Jelly 2, and the wifi range was about ten feet. If I left the room my router was in, no wifi. I contacted Unihertz, and they took forever to get back to me, and told me to ship it to them (my cost) and if they found a problem, they’d ship me a new one (again, my cost), and if they didn’t find a problem, I could pay to have my old one shipped back.
Screw that. It’s now a teeny tiny paperweight.
I am now rocking a Mode 1 Retro II.
Not bad, but now my classmates call me “Flip phone”.
I own a Jelly 2 and really like it to play around with. However, I find it too small as a daily driver, when I tried that for two weeks. Due to the small size, it is also really bulky, so instead of a tablet, you have a bump in your pocket. For me, the perfect size is around 4,5-5" (minus the keyboard of the titan slim). The Tank Mini 1 has a good screen size, but again is really thick.
I know this was linked for the small phones but that Tank 2 looks like a real nice phone.
Yeah it really does lol.
I’d forgotten about that, I remembered their initial pitch was “It’s your second phone so you don’t have to take your first phone out of your pocket all of the time.”
Thanks for sharing. Looking at a few of their various models and at the very least it looks like they’re doing something different
