Will Samsung ever create smaller phones?

I love my s23 (not the ultra i have the small one) its perfect small size but i keep seeing Samsung come out w new phones and the smaller module tend to be bigger than last modules, it may get to the point to cause hand and wrist pain. Will they ever create smaller phones such as s23?

It is unlikely Samsung will return to "truly" small flagship phones (like the 6.1-inch S23) as the market has shifted toward larger screens, with the Galaxy S25 potentially being the last of its kind. The demand for compact, high-performance devices is low, making them difficult to engineer with modern battery and component requirements

People want larger batteries more than larger screens.

I want a phone that doesn't take up a lot of space and is hand happy.

I don't want it too small, but I font need or want a large one. My S10 lite is perfect in dimension, weight and hand comfort.

Z Flip is just about as compact as it gets!

They never stopped? The difference between the S23 and the S25 dimensions is basically non existent.

5.78 x 2.78 x 0.28 inches vs 5.76 x 2.79 x 0.3 inches. No one believes you if you claim thats a perceptible difference.

I went from the 10e to the s23. I miss my little 10e. I don't want to get anything bigger then my s23 that I have now. Idk why they think there isn't a demand for small phones.
