Ask Help Desk: Phones are getting too big!

To me, the best compromise in terms of price and performance is a solid, small smartphone — they really do exist! Apple sort of has the market cornered with its newer mini iPhones, and its $399 iPhone SE is a fantastic budget option. If you’re devoted to Samsung, well, I come bearing bad news: Most of Samsung’s phones are enormous, even the budget ones. I’d recommend Google’s Pixel 5 instead — it’s not the newest phone out there, but it’s speedy enough for what you need, and mercifully small compared to most other Android phones.
