Does having a fancy smart phone with a 3-5" screen make you feel important?

Otherwise why do you pay for data to look at a screen that small?

You cant get around you are living your life on a small screen, paying hundreds a year and having to carry around a huge ugly device. With questionable security.
Wait.....

Is it Small or Huge? Make up your MIND!

Also...FYI to all in here...there is only 1 phone on the market with a 5 inch screen (someone answered 4-5 inches). Most new ones are 4 to 4.3....most of what we have in our pockets right now (unless you bought in the last 4 months) would be 3.5 (iPhone) to 4 (everything else)

The phone is huge to carry a small 3- 5" screen

Unless your name is Curtieson(or Boltman) and then you carry about an inch in your pocket!

You are telling me you like the overall size of your smart phone... they are freaking huge nowadays

I have a w580i great phone unlimited text. Small

Everytime I use a smart phone I'm underwhelmed.
Your phone's size: 3.89 x 1.85 x 0.55 inches. Weight: 3.3 ounces.

my phone's size: 4.47' x 2.32' x 0.52 inches. Weight: 4.6 ounces.


Yep... totally love my phone. OMG, an extra 1.3 ounces! Faint

Dude, I have a kid and I coupon... my purse does not notice an extra 1.3 ounces. LMAO

Your phone is a lot bigger seriously you wouldn't buy a phone that big without data access the new phones are too big and all look the same all fingerprinty or with peeling protector film.

it is actually thinner.

If you had a folder...would it be better to carry 1 sheet of paper or a stack of post it notes? The very thin piece of paper would make things much more simplistic and since H / W were not important since we had to carry the whole folder anyway...

"Huge" paper wins.
