I got an iPhone 13 Mini last week since my iPhone SE (2016) won’t get iOS 16.

The Mini is large and literally painful to use one handed. I’m not sure that I have any other option.

Any one know any SE sized Android phones? I’m open to switching.

@duckrowing I got an 13 mini last week too, coming down from an 11 Pro, and I’m quite comfortable with it. I had no idea the SE was smaller.

You can see a rough comparison there. I know the size difference isn't big, but it's the difference between being able to touch any part of the screen with your thumb and not.

@duckrowing Unfortunately it seems like genuinely small phones are a very niche offering now, hey 😔 I know there's a manufacturer called Unihertz that makes some niche Android phones (looks like the Atom L is a bit bulkier than the original iPhone SE, while the Jelly 2 is smaller). Or there's the Cubot Pocket, with a 4" screen, and looks more closely SE-sized. That seems to be about it at the moment…

@jayeless I’ve seen some of those. I think my iPhone SE 2016 has better specs 😃. I think maybe the thing to do is accept that the Mini (which has a lot of great features) will make using a phone worse in lots of ways but life is too short to get angry about it. I’m still open to switching to droid if someone makes a good small phone.

@duckrowing Yeah, unfortunately there is a trade-off where smaller phones usually have worse specs! I do like my 12 mini, myself, and you might well adjust to the size in time 🙂
