My main issue with modern phones (aside from the lack of privacy obviously) is how big they are. I have an iPhone mini and I wish it was smaller. Are there any Linux (or privacy focused) phones that are small?

I'd also like something even smaller, but it does not exist.

At least not if you don't want to buy something with questionable software from China. One manufacturer even had malware on their phones.

So... Yeah, no way currently.
