Sony used to make compact variants of their flagship Xperia phones. Good specs. Good battery life. Good camera. Good sound. Good reception. Headphone jack. SD card slot. Unlockable bootloader, so they could be de-googled.
Sadly, the "compact" models grew slightly larger with each model year, and even a not-so-compact one hasn't been released in a while.
Yeah I have an xperia 5 iii. It's not compact, it's just narrow (seriously hate the ultra wide phone displays). Also heavy as a brick.
