I like the feeling of holding and using a phone in one hand. I am using a Pixel 5 right now, but it feels a bit too large for me. I know nobody makes phone that small like the iPhone 4S or the Samsung S3 mini anymore, but is there at least a phone smaller than the Pixel 5? Maybe around the size of a iPhone 12/13 mini?

EDIT: There is a small Android phone project in development for anyone interested: https://smallandroidphone.com/

    Galaxy S21/22/23, if you dont mind shutter lag

    Zenfones, if you dont mind 3 times more faulty hardware than other brands, shit software support, bad software optimization, meh camera and bad VFM

    Xiaomi 12, if you dont mind MIUI or installing custom ROM

    Xperia phones if you dont mind remote control aspect ratio, shit software updates, meh camera and insane price

    Pixel 8 if you dont mind waiting, it should be under 70/150mm judging by display size

      There is a Samsung addon called Camera Assistant. It integrates with Samsung camera’s settings, and allows the photo button to make a photo “on press” (while the default is set to “on release”).

        I am aware of that, but already low quality photo (compared to Pixel/iPhone) has even worse quality with this option.

        Holy hell thank you so much. You jusy solved a problem I didnt even realize I was dealing with. I always felt like my camera was delayed, but I thought it was just how things were on every device.
