Well there are foldables, which are growing as category, but I don't know if it makes a net difference and anyway they're too small to make a difference currently.
"There are some of you who want phones that are easier to fit in a pocket, but we'll break the deal we made with Satan if we ever build 4 inch phones again, so here's a 6 inch phone that bends in half. The screen is so soft your stubble will ruin it and the Earth's atmosphere is too coarse for the severely complicated hinge to survive a month. That'll be $9900.
Except whenever a manufacturer, including Apple, tries to market a phone that's smaller than the average size, nobody buys them.
The only people who actually want smaller phones are some very loud people on the internet.
