Compact Phones

Phones are too big. We've come to accept that 6" phones are normal, and we're mis-sized. But just a few years ago, people hated big phones. We complained that they were uncomfortable to hold, didn't fit in our pockets, and that these phones were "clumsily oversized." Now big phones are all you can buy. Why? Did everyone's hands and pockets get magically bigger? Are phones big because manufacturers want us to drop them?
Whatever the reason, we know what we want: We want small phones!

Not an Apple fan but their SE gets updates for a good amount of time, about 1cm bigger length and width than their first SE but it might fit your criteria.
Samsung Flip is a compact clamshell that becomes a regular sized phone.
The ASUS Zenphone 10 is on the smaller size but barely qualifies as a small phone so up to you, expecting updates to 2027.
