i guess flip phones are the new small. once they become more affordable.

my pixel 3 died after 4 years so i upgraded to a used pixel 5 which was the last small-ish pixel.

very surprised with the battery. rarely end the day less than 75% - and it's smaller than the not small (imo) zenfone 10.

Going to assume you mean foldable phones. A lot of people want small phones so they can be used one-handed. One cannot reach every part of a folding screen with one hand.

The OP means flip phones. Foldables are the full size phones that fold out to be mini tablets. Flip phones are like modern moto razers with a small screen on the outside and a larger screen inside.

Not really, they are still quite heavy and very thick.

Reviews of the OnePlus Open say they're thinner than previous attempts and about the same weight as current iPhones.
