Even if I were to ever use an iPhone (which I won’t), it bulks up phones even more. I already find modern phones far too large. I was thinking more of something like the Nokia E71 [0] or for a bigger screen, a slide out like the HTC Desire Z / T-Mobile G2 [1], both phones I had before, and loved at the time.

You might like the Unihertz Titan series. The Titan Pocket is very similar to the E71: https://www.unihertz.com/products/titan-pocket


Ohh, that looks awesome. A bit thick, but otherwise great! My current one is only 2 years old, but I’m saving this.


The Titan Slim is newer and thinner but has a > 4" screen on top of the keyboard, making it quite tall.


Yeah, I saw that. I’d like a combination of both :D But it will be at least another, maybe 2-3 years, so who knows what they’ll have out by then. I’d also have to check the support story.


I have had 2 Unihertz phones and I'd classify the support as "better than you'd expect for the price, but only so-so in absolute terms"
