I don't think there is any mainstream Android phone available that is of 12/13 Mini size. In fact there might not be a mainstream one that is smaller than the current base iPhone size.
- pzmarzly 2y agoRegarding your first statement: yes, sadly. Regarding your second one, I have some good news though: ASUS Zenfone 10 is smaller than iPhone 16 by 1.1mm x 3.5mm, Samsung S24 (base model) is 0.6mm x 1.0mm smaller, and Sony Xperia 5 V is only slightly bigger.
- red369 2y agoI know there used to be such a huge range of Android phone sizes, that there was likely to be a phone in the size you wanted, and you acknowledged that the phones you were listing were not the same size as the 12/13 mini... But the Sony suggested is slightly bigger than the iPhone 16 in 2/3 of the dimensions and this comment thread is lamenting how big the iPhone 16 is! I think people who see the iPhone 16 as so large it is not an option are unlikely to consider switching to Android for an even larger phone. It's a shame, because Sony used to make smaller phones with only slightly lower specs than their flagship phones. I also still associate them with making sensibly-sized alternatives, even though they don't anymore.
- crossroadsguy 2y agoiPhone size is already too big (imho!). So Sony one is anything but that. Asus ZFs? Nope, anything but mainstream. These never released in many geographies including my country - the most populous on the planet and no it was not even too costly for here - and yes, they already have a sales/distributor channel/base here so they didn't have to setup anything. There really isn't anything mainstream out there at all. Why? Majority, clear majority, of people rejected smaller size phones sadly.
