      Would you pay $1000 for one? Economy of scales matters…

      Plus everyone who did look at them would say it is smaller it should cost less! Even though a smaller phone would be more technically challenging to build. Next you have compromises. No matter what you take out to make it work. People would bitch, I need that! I don’t need this other thing! Next battery life, people complain about current battery life, you think they want less?

      I could go on, but I can easily see why manufacturers don’t want to deal…

      obviously they did exist. why do you think phone manufacturers would stop making them if they were as profitable as the other sizes?
