Most lightweight, compact modern phone

[fr]

What is the smallest modern phone I can get? Just need moderate to high specs, Bluetooth and 4G, and recent version Android or iOS.

I can't seem to find anything smaller than iPhone SE that fits the bill.

Did a search and only found some low end Android phones. Samsung J1 mini, Alcatel Pixi 4, BLU Studio J1.

if all you need is for casual use, then try the BLU Vivo Air LTE. it is the 2nd slimmest in the world. i had it for 6 months before i realize i cant live without USB OTG for using my accessories such as the Seek Thermal cam. they dont make the phone anymore so you gotta buy through ebay or swappa

After all the negative press about BLU, I'm surprised people are still recommending them. OP should stay way from BLU, as should everyone else.

I think Sony xperia xa1 is a pretty small phone with good specs. Supposed to have a great camera, too.

probably going to have to wait until the new bezel-less iphone se comes out maybe at some point in the future if apple wants to.

iPhone SE obviously. I would wait for the SE 2.

Yeah the SE is probably the smallest, I'm not aware of any good offerings in Android space. Sony used to sell some Xperia models which were extremely compact but still had high-end internals, but I don't believe that's the case anymore.

They still do. The XZ1 Compact has the same SD835 that all the 2017 high-end Android phones did.

while small, the xz1 compact isn't a 4" phone like the OP is looking for. it's about halfway between an iphone SE and an iphone 8 in terms of area.

I was only replying to yuriman because he was clearly thinking of the Xperia Compact line.

Nothing high-end in the size of the SE as far as I know.

Thanks for the that. Impressive specs!

I have used several Xperia compacts and they are nice as well as powerful.
