"That's what she said."
Thank you and goodnight.
I have the Note II after having the 3G, 3GS, 4, 4S, 5 I thought I wanted that really big screen? I was wrong, the IP5 has a great screen, and the Note II is just too large to carry around in my pockets, I almost lose it sometimes when pulling it out of my pockets.
It is going back and I am going back to my IP5 until the IP6
No! I want it to be similar size to nexus 4!!!
They never should have changed the aspect ratio, only should have made the display bigger in every direction.

I doubt that Apple will ever make a bigger screen. Their advertising and philosophy behind the Iphone is a device that is easily usable with one hand. If you want a bigger screen then buy Android. Apple really needs to stay at 4 inches or less to be useable with one hand by the majority of its consumer base.
I prefer the 3.5 inch not because I can't handle the 4 inch but because I like a more compact portable phone. After all it is a phone. If you need to play games or read websites then buy the Ipad mini. Ipad mini was developed to fill in the gap left by having a bigger screen on the Iphone. I pray that the Iphone screen remains 4 inches or less. Anymore and I think they are pushing away a large portion of their target market since they only offer one style of the current phone.

I never was interested in the iPhone 5 used my AT&T upgrade earlier this month to get another 4S.
Two weeks ago, I bought a Nexus 4 on T-Mobile with a 4.7" display and now after using that, the 4S screen seems ant sized. I think 4.7" is the perfect size as it still fits in my pocket easily.If I want a bigger screen, I use my Nexus 7 tablet.

Trying to use my Nexus 4 with one hand was a pain. Do-able, but I always felt like I was about to drop it and it really slowed my typing/browsing/what-have-you down. I really don't want/need the screen to be any wider than it is on the iPhone, personally.
On the one hand (no pun intended) you want everyone to be able to have what they want, but on the other you don't want to see the ecosystem get fragmented into different kinds of iPhones...
I want what we had before all these new fangled phones came out. I want a nice, solid 2 inches of screen real estate with physical buttons for the alphabet and also the numbers!!
Oh, how I loved getting the satisfying click of actually hitting the keys! Better yet, just the number keys so I can spell out what I'm saying using the ABC/DEF/GHI format!!

I didn't buy the 5 for the screen size. Was more interested in LTE and faster everything else. Now that I have it, I like the screen ok. But when I use my son's 4S, I think I like its form factor better..
3.5 inch is the perfect size....and the if Apple released iPhone mini or bigger iPhone and they will...the 4 inch size will come down in history as the worst sizer ever.
just like what someone mentioned earlier...it's an awkward size.

Not only do I like the smaller size of the iPhone 4S, but the solid build quality was/is better than the iPhone 5. Still would not mind the iphone 5 but no wider. For those that keep harping on a wider phone by Apple, give it a break, its not going to happen anytime soon if one would just pay attention to Tim Cook and how he explained that Apple wants a phone that the user can swipe with one hand.
These threads pop up all the time by those that don't get it. If you want wider why not just leave and buy the other offering and stop posting these useless rants about something that is not going to happen.
Love my iPhone 5
Them Galaxy Notes are just crazy they keep making them bigger and bigger

Big phones suck. I tried a Note 2 for a week and hated it. Carrying it around felt like a responsibility. Kinda like toting a small child around with you everywhere you went.
You know what it reminded me of? One of those big ass wallets with a chain hanging off of it. I hate those things.
