AnonD-72449, 08 Apr 2013I can't believe it has a 5.8 Qhd screen that's like a kick ... morePpi depends on the screen size and resolution.

So, saying that 'it must have 100ppi' is a no-no.

I will teach you how.

It has qhd screen- 540*960 and 5.8 inches size in diagonal.

540^2+960^2 then get the square root of it then divide it by the length of screen in diagonal. Its an application of Pythagorean theory by pythagoras which was first taught when we are in elementary.

Then if you cant understand. Try to download ppi calculator in play store. Thats it. :)))))

      AnonD-73765, 09 Apr 2013The only MEGA thing that Samsung n all the other companies ... moreWell, i guess that's because people want bigger screens... if you don't like it, don't buy it.

      We are getting closer to folding or roll up screens which may see devices getting smaller again.

Galaxy S3 was "designed 4 humans", I'm sure Galaxy S6 n other "phones" in it's generation will be "designed 4 monsters n giants"! Unless flexible phones go mainstream, this endless screen size race is gettn totally insane! The Galaxy S4 (some would say even the S3) already challenges the upper limits of anything which can be called a "phone", but that doesn't stop Samsung or others, they all stick 2 the same formula - the bigger, the better without any regard 4 comfort or convenience and hey shrinking bezel sizes r also nearing their limit! With each successive generation, the screen sizes of all Android phones go on increasing with beefed up processor n resolution n marginally bigger RAM n battery n thinner profile n the usual retinue of software gimmicks. We'r in fact coming full circle-the original Motorola car phones, the granddads of modern mobiles were large clunky, radio type devices n vr getting there with these New Age hi-tech smartphones which essentially look like the good old radios while holding 2 the ears! The smartphone industry has become soo boring n passe!

          AnonD-93045, 09 Apr 2013What's the point of this thing?Same as any other phone, I guess.

          Things like - Making and receiving phone calls and texts, browsing the internet, checking e-mail, checking social networking sites, using it as an organiser, using it to store music / videos, using it to take photos.

              The size is between iPad mini and iPhone5. That is why it is called phablet.

              Don't worry Apple will make an iPhonePad sooner.

                          Don't worry Karbonn A30 TA-FONE has 5.9" screen display and Huawei Ascend Mate has 6.1" screen display.

                            Asus Nexus 7 4G LTE is cheaper and would be way better than this phablet!

                                  Seriosly, this is crazy. 5.8 inch. I mean, what's the point of having super size smartphone in your pocket? Just get a full tablet already.
