Today's trend may be 'big, bigger big', but that doesn't mean that there are people who prefer a compact smartphone. We are talking about a modern smartphone with a screen diagonal of 5.4 or smaller. This used to be large, but nowadays it is compact due to thinner and thinner screen edges.

Old Apple iPhones

Anyone who thinks of a compact smartphone should quickly think of Apple's older iPhones. Phones with a 4-inch screen that could be operated with one hand. However, Apple has not released 4-inch phones since the iPhone SE from 2016. Really modern it can no longer be called that. Android manufacturers have already experimented with larger screens and 6-inch or larger ones are no longer an exception. So it's a search for compact modern smartphones, but that doesn't mean they're not there.

Sony Xperia Compact

Sony has been trying to attract customers with its Compact series for years. The series is not updated every year, mainly because the demand for such compact phones is not high. A model from this series guarantees a high-end smartphone with a good camera in a compact housing. Consider this one if you want a high-end phone with modern features.

Extinct category

Unfortunately we have to conclude that 4-inch smartphones are a dying breed. Simply because the demand is too low. We've grown accustomed to larger smartphones and manufacturers use handy tricks in the software to operate it with one hand. Which one exactly do you read below. There are manufacturers that focus specifically on compact smartphones including Unihertz and Sudroid. Another option are so-called companion phones. Those are very small phones 'for there'. Think of the Palm Companion.

One-handed mode

As mentioned before, manufacturers are trying to make it easier and easier for you to operate a large smartphone with one hand anyway. If you've given up hope of a compact smartphone, these are ways to make your life easier:

  • Apple Reachability - Swipe down the bottom of the screen
  • Huawei One-hand UI - Swipe down the navigation bar
  • LG One-handed Operation - Click on the icon in the navigation bar
  • Samsung One-handed mode - Press the home button 3 times
  • Sony One-handed mode - Swipe down the navigation bar

For all other Android phones, it is also possible to search for a similar app in the Play Store.
