Its a bit funny how I find that model to be too big. People like me have definitely been abandoned from the market.

But thanks for the recommendation. I ended up grabbing an older model that still works as a low end phone, but I wonder for how long I will be able to use older phones...

It's definitely larger than I'd like but damned if the manufacturers haven't heard our demands and realised that, once again, compactness is a premium feature. You can get an itty bitty iPhone or S23 but fuck all in the mid range. Thanks again, The Market!
