I love the small and carry it weekly (photo below), but I only have a card case, keys, and mobile (iPhone 12 pro). I will say that if you reach for your phone a lot, it may get annoying as you will need to stand it up and it will stick out of the bag. I can fit it horizontally, but it's more of a task to pull it out. Also, there was another thread--this size has a tendency to tip over...think it depends what you carry, but doesn't bother me at all!
Love both the Fard and Lotus...tough decision. I would probably favor the Fard just a bit more, but you really can't go wrong with either! Let us know what you decide!
