Where did all the small phones go? Compact mobile phones, which once dominated the market, are gradually being replaced by bigger handsets. Apart from the once-in-a-blue-moon small phone that are occasionally announced, the big players like Samsung, Apple, and Motorola release phones that are larger than life. These phones don’t cater to people with smaller hands or those who prefer a compact phone that is easy to pocket and carry around. However, smartphones with 5-inch screens are still available in India. And if you’re in the market for one, we’ve compiled a list of the best 5-inch smartphones that you can go for.
