There needs to be small Android phone...

Am I correct that the 6 will be 6.4?

I want my phone to fit in my pocket and be able to forget about it until I need it. I’m not sure if 6.4 would do that for me. It’s really a combination of size and weight.

For now I think I’ll stick with the 4a. It performs well and fits my size specifications. I’m glad Google has a nice variety for everyone though.

I would love to get the pixel 6 pro down the line, but if it's really going to have a 6.7 inch screen, that's just to big for me to pocket carry. I'm using a pixel 3xl now which is 6.3, and it's on the borderline of being pocketable for me wearing jeans. Even if the pixel 6 pro is bezel-less with a tall thin aspect ratio, I doubt it will be comfortably pocketable for me. I will probably have to see one in person to know though.

I know the regular pixel 6 is supposed to be 6.4, so that's probably what I'll end up settling with. But I like my flagships lol.

The compact phone market is small, like the keyboard phone market. Those in said markets should buy these phones if they truly want to support the form factor, or don't complain down the line if huge slabs are all there is to buy, or if said niche phones are only being made by tiny Kickstarter companies.

That said, if there were a half decent keyboard case for the i12 Mini, I would seriously consider switching to iOS!

For sure, those are good points. And there aren't enough keyboard cases out there, either! But again, that's a smaller market size...

Seems like cases would be an easier sell than actual devices. As people would keep the device they like, and use the case for added functionality (assuming it's well integrated).

I remember when a 5.5" screen was a phablet and people mocked me for using a phone that big. Things sure do change with time. Lol

I remember when I thought it was too big a phone, going from Thunderbolt to a Note 2. And I keep that in my POCKET with the belt clip on. Same with the 4, 8, and when I go to the 9 or 10.

Another good point. If one likes the keyboard case *and* the specific phone they're using, it would be a win-win for manufacturers.

I actually had a dream last night that I was typing out something on a phone with a virtual keyboard... I guess I'm thinking about those days more than I thought!

Seems like your autocorrect doesn't like PKB's either lol

LOOL no kidding! Oh boy. I totally meant I was typing something out on a *physical* keyboard.
