first the ipad mini now if they make the big iphone they will have every single size device possible. What kind of idiot would buy a big iphone and a little ipad. They will sell less by combining the two into this device.

Give me an iPhone with a 4.3" screen and an OS that's not full of 10 year old skeuomorphism

if i can at all help it, i will never have a phone with a screen smaller than (around) 4.3"...my wife's phone is 3.7" and my man-sized fingers don't like it one bit

IMO, 4.3" is the sweet spot...i don't like larger phones, either

^ you mean people are buying the galaxy note 8 (an 8" non-smartphone tablet) and the galaxy note 2 (a 5.5" smartphone) together? i wasn't aware the note 8 was actually available, just announced

it's laughable to think many people will buy both of those products...a large tablet and large smartphone, sure, but outside the apple ecosystem, very few people are that stupid

HTC is releasing their new giant phone with an available small BT mini-phone. Everyone, including myself, made fun of it at first.

However, the more I think about it I kind of think its a good idea. My ideal phone would be something the size of the Note 2 that has a stylus, its portable but has the functionality to actually use the device to review and markup drawings and documents. But its weird to use as a phone, and that's why I passed on it. BT headsets are great functionally, its just that they are really ugly. A small BT device that bridges the gap is actually pretty clever, I'm curious if anyone else will try a similar approach.

i personally really really do not want such a gigantic phone.
