    I have that first Sony Phone. Nowadays price is 199€ here in Finland. Best phone I have ever owned and price is also very cheap.

  2. bosgotnojams on May 14, 2020 at 4:03 pm

    mini? lol

  3. Peanut on May 14, 2020 at 4:04 pm

    Only phone I consider compact on this list is the iPhone SE.

  4. weweko kowe on May 14, 2020 at 4:07 pm

    Real headache to find a phone for a kid with what’s up, all these useless large phones. Annoying
    4 inch max what we need

  5. Non Oui on May 14, 2020 at 4:08 pm

    IPHONE SE?!

  6. Alan on May 14, 2020 at 4:09 pm

    I’ve got no intention of parting company with my XZ1 Compact. I love it!

  7. Павел on May 14, 2020 at 4:09 pm

    *hi, whats the music on background?*

  8. money profit on May 14, 2020 at 4:09 pm

    se is the mvp

  9. Scott Hammer on May 14, 2020 at 4:10 pm

    I’m here because they canceled the SE2. I’m bitter and coming back to android with arms (ok fingers) wide open.

  10. Mono Moscow on May 14, 2020 at 4:10 pm

    Sony is better and more powerful phone than the others

  11. AMIT D on May 14, 2020 at 4:11 pm

    Sad is none of them are the latest top specs flagship device only iphone 8 is exception that also too expensive..

  12. Being Dengineer on May 14, 2020 at 4:12 pm

    Thanks for not reviewing any Chinese smartphone.

  13. MarQuiz 27 on May 14, 2020 at 4:12 pm

    I wish manufacturers offered a real compact phone (4,3′ – 4,5′) with an 18:9 display. This competition of releasing bigger phones is just stupid.

  14. Just Me on May 14, 2020 at 4:12 pm

    Take iPhone 4s. Make it all screen with Touch on display and camera in display. Put a12 chip inside. Perfect phone. I don’t like these huge phones today.

  15. mediacenter man on May 14, 2020 at 4:14 pm

    How are any of these phones even mini???

  16. amine bli on May 14, 2020 at 4:14 pm

    iphone se is the only mini smartphone

  17. شفیق الرحمان شفیق on May 14, 2020 at 4:14 pm

    Apple se

  18. alex43111 on May 14, 2020 at 4:14 pm

    A 5 inch phone is not a mini, has everyone lost their mind, the human hand has not lost its proportions in the last 5 or 6 years..

  19. TheMagnificentZoltar on May 14, 2020 at 4:15 pm

    01:44 better go read some of your mail.

  20. ultraali453 on May 14, 2020 at 4:15 pm

    I’m happy with my Huawei P10 Lite 5.2 inch screen
    Basemark OSII score: 1550 points

    I’m also sad that we don’t really have any good 4.5 inch android smartphones anymore.

  21. der Jack on May 14, 2020 at 4:16 pm

    You post a Video that is titled with a size comparison – BUT DOES NOT INCLUDE DIMENSIONS!
    Whaaat? The Display size has nothing to do with its over all dimensions!

  22. NUFF & LEKNO on May 14, 2020 at 4:20 pm

    is not mini wtf

  23. dtadeo2006 on May 14, 2020 at 4:21 pm

    ummm….. IPHONE SE ANYONE! HELLO!

  24. African Twin on May 14, 2020 at 4:26 pm

    I need a 4 inch with big battery, no flagship, no bloatware. . For now my BIG Xiaomi redmi 4 prime works fine with root acces, and no bloatware. Sony Samsung Apple are overpriced, and no root.

  25. Rich Smith on May 14, 2020 at 4:27 pm

    Females can’t even hold these phones anymore and they’re somehow called "mini"..

  26. Federico Ricotta on May 14, 2020 at 4:27 pm

    not mini…

  27. Eric Rudd on May 14, 2020 at 4:27 pm

    Why do you suggest the iPhone SE, but then state, if you can find them. All high street phone shops are still selling the SE.
    I’ve just taken a new contract on one for the simple fact it is THE most easily to handle phone. It was between the SE and the Sony XZ1 compact, but even the compact is still sizeable against the SE. Also it just doesn’t feel as quality in the build department. I was really split until I held both in the hand, then it was no contest.
    Glad I got the SE as well as it seems to be a great little phone.

  28. G Pat on May 14, 2020 at 4:28 pm

    Those are big phones! Nokia, blackberry, Android 2.2 and other button smartphones

  29. CoolKD2005 on May 14, 2020 at 4:32 pm

    Why must all the hi end phones be so big and "low cost" small? I personally want a 4,5inch hi end android phone.Something to replace my tired Galaxy S4 mini. Yes it’s old

  30. Electronaut76 on May 14, 2020 at 4:34 pm

    In a few years people will carry their mini phones around in a freakin laptop bag.
    Wtf is wrong with this world. Time to dig out my Nokia3210 i guess…

  31. DESI NICHOLLS on May 14, 2020 at 4:39 pm

    I WISH IPHONE AND SAMSUNG WOULD STOP MAKING BIG SCREEN PHONES! NOT EVERYONE LIKES THAT.
    I HAVE SUPER SMALL HANDS AND I WANT A QUALITY PHONE. ITS REALLY IRRITATING. PLEASE MAKE SMALLER PHONES!

  32. ramiro costa on May 14, 2020 at 4:40 pm

    talk slower mf.

  33. kumbaga on May 14, 2020 at 4:40 pm

    The iphone 8 plus jumps out of my pocket everytime i bend or squat to pick something up. I just want a phone that fits in my damn hand and pocket

  34. ahmed tetauni on May 14, 2020 at 4:43 pm

    Thanks bro

  35. Cédrick Jacques-Sylvain on May 14, 2020 at 4:43 pm

    Sony xperia XZ2 compact

  36. RR Yase on May 14, 2020 at 4:44 pm

    Remember when we thought phones would get tiny and spy-like?

  37. Arnav Kathuria on May 14, 2020 at 4:44 pm

    Currently using the iPhone se and it’s great

  38. Richard Hagan on May 14, 2020 at 4:46 pm

    Price is still not low enough

  39. Rennie Ash on May 14, 2020 at 4:46 pm

    I thought iphone se size was to be considered "mini" in this day. A lot of these are "regular" size imo 🙂

  40. JasnoGT on May 14, 2020 at 4:48 pm

    Watching this on Moto E4 didn’t expect my phone to be in this video:)

  41. Badal Choudhari on May 14, 2020 at 4:49 pm

    4. 7 inch mobile

  42. George Papageorgopoulos on May 14, 2020 at 4:51 pm

    WHEN PHABLETS BECAME NORMAL AND NORMAL PHONES BECAME SMALL?

    The only small phones I found was some crappy alcatel, the Samsung Galaxy J1 and the iPhone SE.

    I guess I’ll have to buy an iPhone SE…

  43. Asip on May 14, 2020 at 4:52 pm

    4.5 is small and compact.. back years.. 4.7 already consider BIG.. people nowadays.. LOL

  44. codywohlers on May 14, 2020 at 4:56 pm

    These are not "mini" phones. Maybe they are "small" phones but how you didn’t have any 4" phones?

  45. MissMiia on May 14, 2020 at 4:56 pm

    I hope a company out there makes use of this market for small smartphones with good performance. 4" phones with good performance would be amazing.

  46. Rennie Ash on May 14, 2020 at 4:59 pm

    There’s some ridiculously small Androids out there. Maybe they aren’t flagship specs, but they’d have to be more relevant than these regular sized phones here!

  47. ADC20032996 on May 14, 2020 at 5:00 pm

    How much is the latest A3?

  48. Rampage on May 14, 2020 at 5:00 pm

    Sony Xperia xz2

  49. G K on May 14, 2020 at 5:01 pm

    For me 5.2/5.3 inch screens are the optimum for one handed use. Don’t like 6 inch screens but don’t think that we have a chance to change the trend. Can barely get these into pockets.

  50. Overwatch 213 on May 14, 2020 at 5:01 pm

    Same I like small phones
