But one hand operability is a MUST to me, and as this has been available with mediocre specs only for years, I have had to wait....

darkgamer, 30 Jul 2014Saw you here for the first time, surprising. Regarding ... moreyo darkgamer. i really experience with moderate / bigger size male hands that a 7 cm phone is way, way more clumsy to handle with 1 hand then something thats like 62 mm wide .. strong feeling is that beyond 65 mm for the majority of users, `1 handed use is going clumsy in a fast pace where at 70 mm ergo- hell rises.. And typing heaven is arrived,... mm sweetspot prbably @ 64-66 mm wide @ 4,5 -4,7 inches where you got a good balance between ergo 1 hand action n typing comfort. 4,3 inch is a little to small imho for typing

Regarding the phone, I believe we have a good contender of the iPhone 6 here( though I believe apple A8 will crush snapdragon 801). I'm also waiting for the galaxy alpha and want it to have FHD.
Anything upto 67-68 mm is easily manageable with 1 hand if it is slim enough(

And yes we can hope this will be the end of "Phablets only"-craze when we are talking high speced phones.
Don't misunderstand, Phablets are fine for many, but not for me, so let us have variety!!
I've been waiting for loooooong to find a decent successor to my ancient "Xperia Pro" (Xperia Neo with hardware QWERTY)

Side bezels hurt the pocketability and handling of a phone.Changes to the top/bottom are only aesthetic.
I would substitute thin bezels with large vertical ones on any day, if I am getting stereo speaker functionality to go with it.

Eske Rahn, 30 Jul 2014I got the same limit for one hand operation. :)
But a 4.... morehEe Eske,
calculations from big picture i get 2,053 ratio and indeed seems that from 4,6 inch diameter scale projection onto phone's width i see its ~63,2 mm wide. and about indeed 129 mm high ... THATS DECENT ! still dont like ratio but ok.
This is an 'attack' on iphone 6. Samsung doing the same with the Galaxy S5 Alpha? Aka Neo? wich has top chiipset sd800 and 4,7 inch screen (HD) .. so almost high end device
Conclusion: tHAnks to Ergonomical new iphone 6 @ 4,7 inches
a whole bunch of high(er)-endish phones is comming to us AS AN COUNTER ATTACK i guess, and finnaly we are free of 5 inch or bigger clumsy phones hehe
Still hanging on NOkia N8 here, > Camera, built as a Tank, Navigation, All else works fine n Fast enough to me, USB otg, HDMI etc etc
Yo !
btw, what device do y use right now?
