Many flagship smartphones being released today have a large design that's immersive but also not oriented for one-handed use, which is where this [Google](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/9a) Pixel 4 Mini concept seeks to offer a solution.

Designed by Jonas Daehnert, the smartphone imagines another model option in the new device lineup and features a 4.5 inch screen that is crisp yet easily accessible with one hand. The [triple-lens camera system](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oppo-find-x8-mini) that was shown off on the Google Pixel 4 is also found on the rear of this device to ensure that users choosing the [smaller version](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oneplus-13s) wouldn't lose must-have features.

The Google Pixel 4 Mini concept smartphone also features the designer's minimalistic Android user interface that could help to save battery life: something that would be welcome on a device with a smaller power source than full-size alternatives.
