Best Compact Smartphones

in #technology6 years ago (edited)

The definition of compact phones have been changing from past couple of years, because the average size of a smartphone is increasing. A couple years back the average size of a smartphone was 4.5 inches, last year it was 5 inches and now it has grown up to 5.5 inches. The average sized smartphone from 2015 is now considered a compact phone. As the smartphone sizes are increasing it is very hard to find a good compact smartphone without sacrificing any functionality. But there are still some companies that are making good compact phones.
These are the best compact phone you can buy in 2018.
