You could make it compact, yeah, but image quality will start to suffer as you start removing corrective elements in the lens to make it more compact. You might also start seeing aperture numbers get pretty high, which sort of defeats the object of a bigger sensor (more light and more foreground separation). That said, I would actually love a M4/3 smartphone, even if it is as chunky as that cursed Energizer phone from a few years ago.
