I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S22 because it literally was/is the smallest flagship on the market. If there were a flagship option with a 4-5" screen I would probably snap that up immediately.

I love the full-face screen with small symmetrical bezels. Performance is good. Wireless charging. Decent fast charge. Good cameras.

Don't love that it could be smaller. The camera module makes it rock when flat. I wish the back were not glass. Not a huge fan of the One UI stuff, but it's not the worst either.

Man, I miss smaller phones. Still running my s10e. Got a fairphone 4 when I had to renew my contract but quickly got back to the s10e because of the camera and, more importantly, the size. With the s10e's battery starting to really degrade, I'm now looking for a phone and they're all too big! S22 is on my list, which is only slightly bigger than the s10e. Would have bought the Xperia 10 V, if it had a better camera and wireless charging, even though it's sony's low end device, just because it is kind of small. I'm even considering switching to an iPhone SE, just because I can't seem to find higher end small android phones. What kind of hands do people think I have?

Don't go iPhone SE, go iPhone Mini if you do switch. I will not switch, i already tried iOS again recently but there's too many irritating things that sent me running back to Android (please no one ask me to start listing them all). But if it can fit for you, go Mini.
