Not just a small phone, but an ergonomically shaped phone is missing from the market. It would be great to have devices again that you can cradle in your hand and slip into a small pocket. Thin slabs are nice on a display shelf, but they aren't human-centered. Give me a phone with a curved and grippy back and a 5.x inch display.

yes. flat screen, no curves. borderless is not very important. headphone jack. buttons and sliders sound the sides. no camera bump. notification light.

I actually feel like the current trend to a more flat trim, like the current iPhones, Galaxies and (rumored) the Pixel 8 have is more ergonomic, since you actually have a solid edge to hold on to instead of something rounded that slips from your fingers

I actually prefer rounded edges. Just doesn't feel nice to get pinched into your hand.
