The Pixel 8a and the Xiaomi 15 both are 152 mm high, the Xiaomi has 1 6.36 inch screen, the Pixel 6.1 inch screen

Screen size does not account for bezels.

That was the point of another article

Can you find any recent phone with a smaller screen?

Maybe wait a bit to see how it evolves

Quite enthusiast for this device, nice to see a larger battery than Samsung and Pixels

Oh, definitely

Nice specs, but expensive

There are currently 3 phones around 145 mm (4a was 144). Those are Ulefones, not sure you want those https://m.gsmarena.com/results.php3?nYearMin=2024&nHeightMax=145&sFormFactors=1&idOS=2

Also, 152mm is for the Xiaomi 15, we’re still not sure about the OnePlus

Thank you. Additional article with even another look: https://www.notebookcheck.net/OnePlus-13T-Leaker-highlights-more-details-of-upcoming-compact-flagship-phone.984750.0.html

Personally I don’t really care about the look, just having a compact flagship that is not Samsung or Pixel seems refreshing

Lemmy, Piefed and Mbin could use some help

I’m eyeing a S23 or S23+. The phone is relatively compact and the CPU is powerful.

I’ll see if it can be unlocked. That would be the only reason I would consider a Pixel at this point.

Saw it posted in another thread, probably interesting as its own post

Sounds good! Feel free to let us know how it goes after you got it, it’s always interesting!

The Motorola Edge 50 Neo seems indeed nice. Performance wise, you might indeed not get that much more (https://www.topcpu.net/en/soc-c/qualcomm-snapdragon-855-vs-mediatek-dimensity-7300), because Motorola cheaped out a bit on the CPU.

I have a Motorola Edge 30 Fusion, the CPU is quite faster, in this case you would really see a gap: https://www.topcpu.net/en/soc-c/qualcomm-snapdragon-855-vs-qualcomm-snapdragon-888

You probably have a point. Smaller phones owners usually have a computer to watch their content and are happy with the smaller screen, potentially making them more privacy centric users.

I see where you come from. I’m also not that interested in phone news per se. Okay, let’s start a thread about custom ROMS.

Edit: just posted it
