- slotrans 3y agoTyping this on an Asus Zenfone 9. Small, headphone jack, good battery life. I think there's a Zenfone 10 now?
- gbanfalvi 3y agoAsus Zenphone 10. You’re welcome.
- wilsonnb3 3y agoAs stated in the article, the Zenfone 10 isn't actually small, it's the same size as a standard iPhone or galaxy S23
- tomwojcik 3y agoTyping this on Asus Zenfon 8. The best phone I have had in years, I have it for almost 2 years now. No bloat, small, records voice calls. There's nothing more I want from a phone. Battery isn't great but afaik it improved in the newer models.
- throwaway920102 3y agoI was very against losing headphone socket but just accepted the iPhone SE 2020 and actually using thunderbolt to headphone jack adapter is not that bad. But the ultimate realization is when you finally try Airpods Pro and you are converted.
- craftkiller 3y agoUnihertz has got you covered: https://www.unihertz.com/products/jelly-star https://www.unihertz.com/products/jelly-star Disclaimer: I've never owned any of their phones so I can't speak to their quality.
- errozero 3y agoThanks, that's a cool device but I think maybe a bit too small to be useable.
- rendx 3y agoI own one of their original Jellys and I still find it amazing. I never used it as my daily driver though since it really is a bit _too_ small.
- wkat4242 3y agoThe quality is ok but their update policy is terrible. I have a jelly one but it never got the promised upgrade. They were just like 'hey it's very difficult due to the limited storage so we're only going to upgrade the pro version' :( And later models have been getting 1 upgrade at best too.
- wvh 3y agoSony Xperia 5v and 10v are two current phones that reasonably sized and still have a headphone jack and memory card slot. Not the flagship Xperia 1v though, I think that one's a bit bigger.
- mng2 3y agoThere's the Light Phone if you can live with e-ink. Don't know how capable the music player is though.
