Compact Phones

Phones are too big. We've come to accept that 6" phones are normal, and we're mis-sized. But just a few years ago, people hated big phones. We complained that they were uncomfortable to hold, didn't fit in our pockets, and that these phones were "clumsily oversized." Now big phones are all you can buy. Why? Did everyone's hands and pockets get magically bigger? Are phones big because manufacturers want us to drop them?
Whatever the reason, we know what we want: We want small phones!

I believe the pictured phone is actually a foldable phone in its folded state. You can do some tasks without having to open it up. Very convenient.
My Pixel 8 standard replaced a base Galaxy S21. It's getting harder to find a pocketable phone.
You can clearly see in the picture that your observation isn't accurate.
Of course.
