Smaller is better

I think you mean +2

True.

Breast enhancement has had to be postponed because of everything, but hopefully later this year.

I work in landscaping, and there are times where a few extra inches would be nice, even just for the leverage advantage (I'm below average height for women). But power tools definitely do a lot to even the playing field.

Phone - I still use an iPhone 7 - can't find another Apple phone with such perfect dimensions

I was on the search for the best small phone on the market and landed on the iPhone 12/13 mini. They are slightly smaller than the iPhone 6. The mini line is unlikely to return though because everyone wants big phones .

Agreed - a very short run, to my disappointment in the (i)phone market. I think Apple has limited incentive to offer a bunch of alternatives to the standard/pro/max ladder, and the 16e is the option for now. At least the minis can still be easily found secondhand!

On the other hand, going phone-only (I know @Dave has considered this) you might come out ahead financially and environmentally even with a larger model. I know I'd probably enjoy a 6-7" screen in that case. I guess it comes down to (1) IF it's a given that you have a car or laptop, then smaller is often better, but it might not actually be a given, and (2) your aesthetics/lifestyle.

Enjoyed this thread - for some reason I've always been intrigued by living smaller and simply.
