Prime Day is nearing an end, but there are still plenty of great Android phone deals hanging around if you know where to look. That said, there's one product category that hasn't received enough attention during the sale: small phones

As you probably noticed, Android phones have been getting bigger and bigger in recent years. That's cool if you're into that kind of thing, but there is a growing population of users who would prefer something compact and powerful over a giant display that you can barely use with one hand. Fortunately, there are plenty of options available if you prefer small phones, and many of them are on sale today. 

Since it's ending tonight at midnight PST, I'll start by showcasing Prime Day deals — but if you missed Amazon's sale, don't forget that Best Buy and Walmart are also running their own rival sale events. The picks below range from no-frills budget phones to clamshell devices, so without further ado, let's dive right in.

The Google Pixel 10a has a compact 6.3-inch pOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, plus you get an efficient Tensor chipset and loads of useful AI features under the hood. Grab the already-affordable phone before Prime Day ends and you'll get a straight $100 knocked off your purchase.

Although it's technically a last-gen device now that the 2026 Razr lineup has come along, the Motorola Razr Ultra (2025) is still one of the best flip phones around, with a super pocketable form factor, two vibrant displays, and lightning-fast performance from a Snapdragon chip. Grab the clamshell foldable from Amazon today and you'll score a smooth 14% off your purchase.

Samsung Galaxy S26 128GB:$899.99 $699.99 at Best Buy

Although it's not quite as compact as its predecessor, the Galaxy S26's 6.3-inch AMOLED display is still small by modern standards. You also get big specs under the hood, like a Snapdragon chipset, 4,300mAh battery, and 12GB of RAM as standard. Amazon is all sold out of the 256GB configuration (512GB is still available), but you can grab the phone during Best Buy's TechFest and save $200 through Sunday.

Motorola Razr (2025) FIFA World Cup Edition 256GB: $699.99$549.99 at Amazon

If you want to show the world how much you've enjoyed the World Cup this year, look no further than this limited edition of the Motorola Razr (2025). This flip phone has a bunch of hidden easter eggs for sports fans, plus its 3.6-inch form factor means it's incredibly easy to throw into a pocket or use with one hand.

What is considered a small phone?

Nowadays, small phones are considered any device with a screen that's less than 6.4 inches. Considering how many modern Android phones are 6.7-inch or larger, the category is smaller than you might think. 

What time does Prime Day end?

Prime Day 2026 is set to formally end at 11:59pm PST. That means you only have a few more hours to take advantage of the best Prime Day deals until they're gone for good (or until Amazon decides to launch another sale event later this year).
