Well it looks as though the tide may have turned. The days of holding larger and larger slabs to our ears may be over. OK, so there is little evidence for this so far, but here is one company doing its best. Unihertz, makers of the tiny Jelly Pro phone have launched their latest - Atom, a rugged Android smartphone that weighs on 60 grammes and measures 96x45x18 mm.

A Kickstarter campaign can be visited here, where you can also see all the other features of this mini marvel. Highlights are an octa-core processor, 4G, 802.11ac wifi, IP68 - meaning waterproof, dustproof, and shockproof and it runs the latest Android 8.1 Oreo
