The iPhone SE is dead, and with it, the compact smartphone as a mainstream product. What happened?

    I picked the Sony Xperia 1v because:

    • 71mm width (similar to pixel 8)
    • Flagship specs (*for 2023 - Snapdragon 8 gen2 / 12gb)
    • not Google Samsung or Apple
    • little to no bloatware
    • Decent cameras
    • SD card expandable
    • Headphone jack 3.5mm (though I haven’t used it yet)
    • No glass back (and solid build quality allround)
    • LineageOS support (for when vendor support runs out)
    • I got a good refurb deal in 2024

    I was considering a Zenphone 10 or Xperia 5 v - mainly for size and brand reasons as above - when i found this for £650
