Anyone have experience with small smart phones?
Why the fuck are we not making small phones any more? I have a computer and a tablet. I don't need to watch streaming movies on a huge screen on my phone or take high def video. I just wanna send some texts, read an email on occasion, use google maps, basic shit, but most importantly I need the damn thing to fit in my pocket. I want it to be easy to shove in my pack on a ride so if something happens I can call for help. I want it to be convenient to carry without some sort of man purse.
I currently rock a Galaxy Exibit (the cheap version of the original Galaxy) which is under 4.5 inches but it's getting on about 8 years old and I'm starting to have serious compatibility issues. I have a Nexus P6 as my second line but I can't bring myself to use it as my primary because it's huge and I have no doubts that if I take it out riding and eat shit it will be smashed into a million pieces.
When I search for small phones the shit that comes up are mostly around 5 inches (the iphone SE is actually really small but I ain't getting it cause fuck you Apple). Half of them don't have a headphone jack and half of them don't have micro SD storage, features that my dinosaur (tiny dinosaur? tinosaur?) phone has. How have we gone backwards? No one else wants a small phone that does all the basics and doesn't suck? It's 2017 where the fuck is my Dick Tracy communicator watch
