Apple‘s move with the new iPhone SE of 2020 puzzles many and cheers many others. Critics speak of an outdated design, while those who applaud the launch highlight a better price, the brain power of the iPhone 11 and a compact size that does not abound in the high-end of the industry. But that does not mean that the new iPhone SE has no rivals or alternatives on Android.
The trend makes the screen of mobile phones bigger and bigger. You just have to see the new Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra and its 6.9-inch panel. Luckily, manufacturers have found the key to increasingly speed up the frames and offer much larger screen percentages in relation to the frames.

Apple’s move
Many Apple fans have been calling for a return to a compact screen size for years. Apple’s solution has been to dust off the iPhone 8 and update it to call it the new iPhone SE, a terminal that arrives with improvements typical of the times that run as the A13 Bionic processor , and with a size of 4.7 inches that is making those nostalgic drool . Let’s take a look at those alternatives available on Android, which boast of being compact and powerful terminals.
Sony Xperia XZ2
With the Sony terminal we go to 5.7 inches, which is to boast of compact in the Android universe. In addition, the terminal has the guaranteed power with the Snapdragon 845 from Qualcomm , which is accompanied by 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal memory. It includes a 19 megapixel MotionEye camera with 4K HDR recording and HDR converter, super slow motion videos of up to 960 fps in FullHD quality and a 5 megapixel front camera. Its price is currently around 399 euros.

Google Pixel 3a, Android purity
Although the trend pushes to buy the XL versions, Google continues to bet on more restrained screen sizes on its devices. The Google Pixel 3a is an example of this, a terminal with a 5.6-inch screen, which also has 4 GB of RAM, 64 GB of internal memory and a 3,000 mAh battery . It can be ours for about 380 euros

The smallest of the Galaxy S10
The Samsung Galaxy S10e was a fresh bet from Samsung last year. For the first time, three Galaxy S series terminals were launched, with the S10e being the smallest of all. However, as with the iPhone SE 2020, it has the same brain as its older brothers, that is, the powerful Exynos 9820. Its screen is 5.8 inches and it has two 16 and 2 megapixel rear cameras, in addition to 128 GB of internal memory.

Pixel 4, compact power
We are facing one of the most powerful compact mobiles of the moment. Recall that the Pixel 4 has a 5.7-inch screen and FullHD + resolution , and a Snapdragon 855 brain, the most powerful Android processor of 2019, with permission from the Snapdragon 855+. In addition, it has 6 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal memory. It can be ours for less than 600 euros.
