yeah, clearly nobody buys Samsung Galaxy S series for years, they are like the least popular Android phone model... /s
I'm running Pixel 6a (which was followed bu successors with worse screen:body ratio for years and only now the new Pixels finally matched and slightly improved the ratio, what a progress), but considering all the HW issues (baterries and displays) with Pixels I'd rather avoid it, the worst case will buy as next phone Xiaomi and hopefully somehow unlock it, if there is no suitable Motorola

yeah pixel used to be great. probably the best phone I ever owned after iPhone SE was a Pixel 3a.
till I got the abomination that was a pixel 6a. fucking overheated - then finally battery exploded. Other pixels suffer the same problems as well - overheating n display being finnicky.

I don't think the smaller Galaxy S models are what people generally mean when they talk about small phones, those are still much bigger than the iPhone Mini was.
it's basically just Samsung S series, Pixels, overpriced bad value Sony and few exotic/abandoned phones (Asus is done with phones, they had always horrible SW, Xiaomi only model 12 many years ago, Meizu not available outside China)
