Looking for a good deal on a small screen Android phone...
...the Mrs has small hands and small (deep) pockets. I was going to get the POCO X5 deal at £160 but I think that would be way too big. Any suggestions appreciated.
You can adjust the sliders on Year and Screen Size and press Show down the bottom.
If youre lucky you may have even heard of some of them !!
I'd personally worry less about screen size and more on overall dimensions. Screen ratio and bezel size have changed a lot since the honor 10. For example the pixel 8 has a larger screen but in actual dimensions it's almost identical.

As well as the dimensions, check the weight. That's the main factor for me. I use a pixel 5 and 3a at around 150g and anything more than that is too heavy.

How do you find the cameras on those? I'm seeing 2nd hand ones on FB Marketplace but on GSM Arena it says the cameras are only 12MP?
Pixel 5 (edited)
No mainstream brand makes small phones anymore really. About 6.x is about the smallest now. You will have to look at an older possiblity second hand and unsupported model. Or look at a Chinese brand on Amazon like blackview doogee cubot or similar.
Also have a look at sony as well. Their phone are narrow which are easier to hold with small hand
Another solution is get a phone case with ring holder. (edited)
The X5 is 6.67 inches which most people would find to be too big. What does she use at the moment as that would give a better idea of what she's comfortable using?

She's been on an Honor 10 for the last few years which I think is a little under 6"
