Jarret, 23 Jan 2014Apple copying Samsung's idea for bigger screen phoneQuick question, Before Samsung there were many other suppliers who made bigger screens. and samsung is not the first nor the only one.. so dont give credit to them to much where it doesn't deserve

        I don't think Apple is copying... Because Apple doesn't make like Samsung big big phone, and is too big to be useful...

                    persist on 3.5 inch
                    persist on 4 inch
                    probably persist on next screen size
                    and still apple assume is unique in all belifes
                    apple=radicalism in thought and act

                      AnonD-130551, 23 Jan 2014Yeah, HTC really had a lot more to do with this in the earl... moreafaik hd2 was a windows phone
                      but i do know it had so much development, pretty much every os has been on that monster
                      the galaxy line blew htc away even at the s1's time

                      while htc did do a lot at the beginning (g1 and nexus 1) it has gone down hill since the galaxy s line was introduced by samsung

                        AnonD-59886, 23 Jan 2014Whatever happened to Apple's "your finger goes from he... moreWell, if their user research says that now people are ok with using to hands, why not change? But then again, we haven't seen iphone 6 yet, so how about you hold your horses a bit?

                          AnonD-171436, 23 Jan 2014I remember a time when Apple used to state that 3.5 inch is... moreAnd how long ago was that? Things change. I remember when people wanted smaller phil ones that could fit into pockets...

                            Wow!

                            This thread has really attracted the ugly, the poor, the uncool and the rabidly envious....

                            Apple makes a good, well designed, well executed product.

                            If you don't like it, or can't afford it, or whatever, fine, buy something else.

                            But all this rabid hatred seems more like a projection of personal inadequacy and hatred of all the "beautiful" people, than reasonable choice of a phone.

                            It is only a phone, after all. Even if well designed. Even if YOU personally don't get it.

                            Get a life....

                              How about more than 1GB DRAM so it doesn't suffer from early obsolescence?

                                      4.8inch is a good size upgrade for iphone.
                                      5.7 is just stupid.

                                        That's a perfect screen size for a smartphone, I have iPhone 5S and Galaxy S3 (I used S4, but found it too big), and I like S3 screen size, but love iOS on iPhone
