Suggestions for medium sized smartphone (6 inches or samller)? - Voxcon - Jul 19, 2020

Hey guys,

my almost four years my old samsung S7 finally broke so i'm looking for a new phone right now.
Unfortunately it seems like most new phones come with a +6 inch screen which i'm not really a fan of because i want my phone to fit into my pockets or be able to use single-handedly.

Therefore i was wondering if you guys are aware of a decent phone in the 6 or sub 6 inch range which A) will receive security updates for the next few years and B) isn't tremendously expensive.

Any recommendations are welcome.

Thanks and best regards,
Vox

I've only ever owned an iPhone but I've just ordered a Oneplus 7T Pro! Cost a lot of money so I hope it is worth it. My last phone was an iPhone SE haha.

Thanks for the suggestion, but the Oneplus 7T Pro is larger than 6.5 inches. So it's not the right fit for me, but thanks for the suggestion.

Da iPhone XR. Really good battery life, and that’s about it

I have a S9 now and changing to an iPhone in the future. The iPhone 11 is 6.1, I think iPhone XR is also in that range if not smaller. If you want to go smaller, the new iPhone SE also have a small screen.

If you want to stay Android maybe look at the Pixel range. Their budget phones also pack powerful hardware for the price.

I have an iPhone 11 Pro, i didnt get the max because it was too big for me. The one I have is a good size phone.

Thanks a lot for your suggestions guys. Much appreciated. The pixel series looks promising, the iphones seem a bit expensive though.

Go with a midrange Samsung and make sure the battery capacity is good.

Check the iphone SE. I think it is pretty cheap compared to other iphone counterparts.

iPhones are really the best phones out

I’d go with a iPhone if possible. Apple works good.

Depends what sort of operating system you want, the new S20 has a 6.2" screen which I know is bigger than what you want but it's a great phone and would me a familular feeling when your current phone.

iPhones aren't too bad either but different to what you've got now.
