Agreed with those who say personal preference. It's like debating favourite ice cream flavour.

I can't force my choice onto others, but i honestly preferred the 4S form factor over any other phone I've used. Sadly that ship has sailed. :(
 
Huh. Never thought this thread would be revived. Still interesting to see people's opinions though.
 
Perfect size would be the iPhone 6s Plus without the top and bottom bezels. Until then 4.7 inch for me.

Those bezels are ridiculous.
 
As acceptable/average phone and phablet size gets bigger and bigger, I wonder if folks still feel the same. The wife has an SE, and my of my students have + models, but my iPhone 6's size is still ideal for my needs.

Now, I would reduce bezels and make it less slippery, but the size is good.

From the existing line - the 4” SE,
but the ideal phone for my needs would be the SE body size and weight with edge to edge 4.3”- 4.5” screen size (bezel-less).
Looking back at my reply from last year, I stand by it - and it's the same answer as geta. SE body with as big a screen as possible.
