Hello everyone! I’m coming to you guys for help finding an Android phone for my girlfriend. She currently uses an iPhone but she wants an Android now. I plan to buy her one for Christmas but she has a few specific features she wants

My budget: $700

Desired Features:

  • “relatively smaller” screen size
  • “decent” camera for everyday use
  • 3.5mm audio jack
  • MicroSD card reader
  • “If possible” extra security features/architecture

Thanks for the help guys!

That may be overstating it. Here are 8 recent Android phones with a headphone jack, card shot, and screen no bigger than 6.2".

I didn’t check current prices, OS update plans, or camera samples for these.

Ok, so add Sony Experia to the list. You win headphone jack and sd. Cool.

But the size confirms my point. 6.1 inch is not small for people who like small phones.

I like small phones and I agree with you.

OP asked for “relatively smaller”, which I took as acknowledgment of the current state of the market where nothing is much under 6".
