People want a small phone, but perhaps not if it costs like 6 phones? How is this hard to understand? > Is anyone willing to pay more for it? No! Is anyone willing to pick a phone over another (despite what paulmd's opinion might be)? YES. > There do exist smaller android phones as well No they don't. There is NOTHING on the market currently that is sized and priced like a samsung S5 mini today.

> People want a small phone, but perhaps not if it costs like 6 phones? How is this hard to understand? iphone mini wasn't priced like 6 phones, and it still didn't sell well. again, you can't seem to grapple with the reality here that what you want is a very niche thing and it doesn't sell well as a mass-market product regardless of price. that is, after all, why apple stopped making that size once again. the iphone SE is about as small as the market wants. Below that is the domain of mini phones - which do exist, but mostly from smaller android vendors. > No they don't. There is NOTHING on the market currently that is sized and priced like a samsung S5 mini today. s5 mini: 131.1 x 64.8 x 9.1 mm cubot pocket 3: 133.2 x 55 x 12.3mm unihertz jelly pro: 92.4 × 43 × 13 mm just with literally a few minutes of searching.

  > iphone mini wasn't priced like 6 phones Still costs 4x than regular android phones. > you can't seem to grapple with the reality You can't seem to grapple with the reality that 839€ for a phone is completely insane, and not everybody is a rich spoiled person like you. > unihertz jelly pro: 92.4 × 43 × 13 mm Funny… I am returning a unihertz because of software issues (default google apps just crashing)… sure it's small… but I implied that stuff must work. > just with literally a few minutes of searching. Too bad that being rich and spoiled didn't enrich your brain uh? I hope it's ok for you that unlike you, I knew what I was talking about.
