I was a bit crestfallen when I learned that the 2014 Moto X had been up-sized. Now I'm left wondering what phone to get for my wife. She's petite and these 5+ inch screens mean the notification bar becomes a long uncomfortable reach with one hand. I thought the new Moto X was going to fix the camera and be THE phone.
The two things she wants are a smaller size and a good camera. Too bad the manufacturers seem uninterested in building a phone like that.
So what are her options?
Samsung Galaxy Alpha (meh)
iPhone 6 ?!?!?!?!?
Is that it? Or one of the low-end "mini" models? I get that there's no perfect phone, but how did a phone that's not designed for gorilla hands become a niche product?
She's on Verizon, but could switch to Cricket/AT&T.
