Best Compact Cell Phone to Buy | TudoCelular Guide

Ideal for those with small hands or simply prefer a device that takes up less space in their pockets, compact smartphones are almost a rarity in today’s market, but it is still possible to find good options for the most varied audiences.

Knowing this (and your demand for a list that cited good compact options, we decided to bring you this guide that lists devices that may be worth buying when the focus is on being small, whether Android or iOS.

As in other guides that you can find here, below you can see the list of compact devices that we selected in our guide, as well as the direct link to it in the publication.

If your focus is on having a compact iPhone with the best possible performance, the focus is certainly on the iPhone 13 Mini, a device launched in 2021 that features the same hardware seen in the rest of the generation but with a reduction in size, something that obviously had an impact on its energy autonomy.

However, a good benefit when we talk about Apple’s compact models is that the iPhone 13 Mini brought evolution in battery life, delivering good autonomy for a compact device. In addition, it delivers the same main sensor as the iPhone 13, but maintains the ultrawide of the previous generation and the absence of autofocus on the selfie camera.

Do you think the iPhone 13 Mini is a good option but the price is still steep for you? So, it’s worth thinking about the iPhone 12 Mini, a device that will basically deliver the same compact body and advanced cameras, without sacrificing so much budget.

Obviously, the fact that we have a previous generation impacts on the delivery of a slightly older chipset but that does not disappoint in terms of performance even in current times and a battery that tends to last less than the iPhone 13 Mini, so I look to have a power adapter. socket or powerbank for possible emergencies.

If you enjoy Apple’s more traditional look (ie, with TouchID and more edges), an honest alternative is the iPhone SE 2022, which features the same platform as the iPhone 13 Mini (yes, it also features the Apple A15 Bionic), which means therefore to say that it will deliver connectivity that includes 5G and cool performance.

However, it is worth mentioning here that it will possibly require more than one charge during the day, thanks to its considerably small and thin body, which thus limited the ability to place a larger battery, being below the iPhone 13 Mini but delivering a better result than the iPhone 12 Mini.

If the focus is on an Android with good performance, certainly the good option when we talk about a compact device is the ASUS Zenfone 9, which officially reached the Brazilian market and stands out for maintaining a compact body and bringing a “gimbal” camera, thus helping to capture moving photos and videos.

Obviously, just like the previous generation, ASUS Zenfone 9 maintains the bet on advanced hardware, being seen here the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 chipset, 6 GB, 8 GB or 16 GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 128 GB UFS 3.1 internal storage or 256 GB. Not least, a 4,300mAh battery with 30W fast charging support is also available.

We talk about the ASUS Zenfone 9 as the main option when it comes to performance, but a good alternative with a friendlier price is the ASUS Zenfone 8, a device that did well in our review for offering a 120 Hz screen with strong brightness, quality stereo sound, great gaming performance, good recharge time and good cameras.

In hardware, this little one doesn’t do ugly and offers a Snapdragon 888 combo, 8 GB LPDDR5 RAM memory and UFS 3.1 internal storage of 128 GB or 256 GB, in addition to a 4000 mAh battery with 30W fast charging.

Looking for plenty of space and don’t mind betting on an Android with a mid-range set? So it’s worth thinking about the Motorola Edge 30 Neo, a device that was launched in 2022 as one of the most basic of the main line, by combining the Snapdragon 695 with 8 GB of RAM and a generous 256 GB of internal storage.

Overall, it can be said that the Motorola Edge 30 Neo still scores points for bringing a pOLED screen with strong brightness, quality stereo sound, good performance and good battery life, thus showing that the project was well completed.

What if the focus is to spend as little as possible? Well, the option among compacts with Android is the Philco Hit P8, a device that has already passed our test bench and pleased us for having a screen with a good level of brightness, removable battery, clean software and, not least, affordable price.

The embedded set is not the most advanced but it will meet basic tasks such as internet access, social networks, streaming consumption and more, in addition to being able to risk casual lighter games like Subway Surfers, but it can be disappointing if you try to play a game more elaborate like PUBG, even in the smooth option.
