  There aren't really many decent small phones. I have a first-gen Moto E, and it's about as big I as I'd like, but the new versions are larger. Same with the Moto X. The best current options seem to be the Sony Xperia Zx Compact series. Everything else small is also very low-end, with bad screens, too-small storage and old software.

  There really aren't small phones out there. I use a Nokia Lumia 620, a slow, 3-year-old phone with a 3.8" screen. Twice now I've dedicated a week to using only a larger phone (4.5-4.7", so not big by today's standards) and both times at the end of the week I've given up and gone back to the 620. The two most common things I do with a phone are (a) use it on a train platform or strap-hanging on a train, one-handed, and (b) leave it in a jeans pocket and ignore it. Even an iPhone 5 is really a bit too big to be a happy device to use like that. (Previously I had a Nokia 700, with a 3.2" screen. That was fantastic, best phone hardware I've ever used, but it ran Symbian and eventually became too poorly-supported to stick with) What I'd really like to see is a phone of the same size and shape as a 3rd gen iPod touch -- so like a thin version of an iPhone 3G. Maybe one day the market will swing back that way, and hopefully when it does, it'll be with a bit more choice so we can have big or small, rather than producing a hundred-and-fifty examples of devices all basically the same size.
