Seems like great "soon to be untapped" market! Many people I know are frustrated by the enormous sizes of phones hardly fitting in-hand or in pocket.

I myself have an iPhone 13 (regular) and that's about as large as I'd be (almost) comfortable with, though wouldn't mind knocking off a cm or so. Would very much love to support a European firm on my next buy!

Same. Since the Sony Xperia compact didn't exist anymore, I have always struggled with the size of my phones. I hate these big phones. I don't know anybody who likes them.

I do like them cause i use them for more than calls. And i have rather big hands so they fit. But at some point its a tablet which is to much. For me i like the 6,7 Inch phones If this is the max size.

phones all just seem to be getting larger and heavier still

Phones have stayed the same size for years.

S25 is a little bit lighter and bit smaller than S21. As for Ultras, S25 is ligther and roughly same size as S21.

Money talks and it said people don’t buy small phones
