This another factor why kids lean to iphone. Their parents buy them the shitty $100 android phone from the carrier store. Compared to a $1000 iPhone, it sucks pretty bad.

Zenfone 9 if you want smaller. But the pixel 7a is probably closer to the 4a 5g

I used the Jelly 2 for several months and the Atom L for 2+ years. The hardware and base software is very solid, with some minor exceptions that can be expected for a small manufacturer.

The Jelly 2 was too small for me and the fingerprint sensor and camera were sub par. But if you want a tiny phone, its 100 times better than anything on the market. Get the Jelly star for the updates specs though.

The Atom L(and XL) was a solid phone, literally and rhetorically. The camera wasn’t flagship class, but solid. I never had a problem with performance, and the phone is very durable. Mine developed a connection issue which was annoying, but not a show stopper. Unfortunately, they haven’t updated this device any longer and there is no new version.

If you have any questions let me know.

4.7" 16:9

And no, bezeless doesnt mske bigger OK. 4.7" was big 10 years ago, and is still plenty big if you ask me.

I strongly dislike it. Having themed colors seems immature and less functional. Having it tied to a wallpaper makes even less sense. I set my system color to grey and use an icon pack for my third party launcher. Padding and other regressions are harder to fix.

4.4 was peak android.

Its a flagship phone though, . Iwould prefer a cheapermodrl,but size is more important to me, and the pixel has less features that I care about.

I am in the same boat. Since the size of the phone is a major draw for me, I will hold out for the zenfone 10. Ive never been too impressed with the 4a, but it was the smallest decent phone I could get at the time.

AFAIK they have no way of doing that. This would be a huge undertaking.

Did they change something recently? Because I thought this was limited to once device and the experience wasnt good.

Hoe does Apple comply ,

Ara was viable technically, but isnt profitable enough for major companies to be interested.
