My phone (Moto X 1st Gen) is showing its age and needs to be replaced. I'm looking to buy a small (preferably 4.5'' or 4.7'') android phone. There are many GSM options, but I can't find a single CDMA phone released in the past 2-3 years that will work with Verizon.

I use my phone for 4 things:

- Calls

- Texting

- GPS

- Music

I don't want to carry around a giant 5.5'' screen just for the above. I also don't want to pay for an iPhone, for obvious reasons.

Why is there not at least one modern phone below 5'' that will work for Verizon? Is anyone aware of any small phones that I may have missed, or any that will be released soon? If not I'll have to switch to a GSM carrier just to have a small phone, which is ridiculous.
