Re: smaller phones, we're not the only ones: https://smallandroidphone.com/

Am pleased to see the Pixel 6a drop and it appears to have a bigger screen but is roughly the same size as my current 3a. IP67 which apparently means..

"dust resistant" and can be "immersed in 1 meter of freshwater for up to 30 minutes".

3a - 5.6 inch screen
151.3 x 70.1 x 8.2 mm, weight 147g.

6a - 6.1-inch screen
152.2 x 71.8 x 8.9 mm, weight 178g.

The 6a is only 6mm taller than my XCover 4S and not as wide (and I usually have that in a case so the XCover is obvs bigger with a case). So the 6a is looking pretty tempting to replace my broken XCover 4S.

But that bloody Fairphone keeps popping up... "think of the workers, ethically sourced minerals, repairable, 5 years of updates..."
