        I cannot imagine myself carrying a blackboard everywhere I go. When will these companies learn that not everyone likes/required a flat screen tv as a phone?!

          I was just saying the other day that I miss my Galaxy Mega 6.3 and that I wish Samsung would make another 6-inch plus device. And now, if this happens to an S8 flagship, then I'm sold. :)

              Only 5.5"? Uh, At least 5.9" at it's smallest or not even worth looking at in the store.

                Such move if the rumor to be true will be suicidal for Sammy... perhaps they are trying to use Note 7 display for S 8 to compensate lose due to discontinue of Note 7.

                  zodiacfml, 09 Nov 2016I guess, HTC doesn't have an answer to that considering the... moreThey seem utterly incapable of making anything with a screen size of more than 5.5 inches and if all else fails they will just pad them out with silly bezels.

                    There's only one way to talk me into buying S8,offer an S-pen.

                      Yuri84, 09 Nov 2016I don't believe they can push a 5.7 inch display into a 5.1... morePulls out your ruler. Measure your 5.1" Galaxy S7 diagonally from its vertice to vertice. It should be more than 5.7". After all, S8 is bezel-less. No more Samsung logo, no more home button, no more capacitive button, no useless empty bezel top or bottom.

                        What we need is a longer battery life! Not stupid curve screen or bezel less!

And the iphone 7 is a ripoff of meizu pro 6 with curved antenna lines. ShaMe on apple tht they have to copy chinese manufacturers.

                              Bezel less is the most stupid design I've ever heard. It is totally a full of shit idea! We need bezel for comfortable handling.

                                No pen, no buy. There are plenty of big screen available. Note is about the pen. That is the only differentiating factor with Note. If no pen, then no buy. Screen size does not change that.

                                  And I thought they will ever realize that a lot of people, including me, want a small display.

                                    they will probably do 2 versions 5" and 5.7"

                                        Lure Galaxy Note customers... and giving the middle finger to others??? Why Samsung...

                                        Just make 3 models at the same time! One big(s8plus), one small(s8), and one big with pen (pro). Isn't that whats good about them? Making a lot of models.
