Well, It cant be just me. pockets are only a certain size. smartphones seem to keep getting bigger and bigger! Iphone 6, too big. Samsung [as big as a]Galaxy to big! and now Microsoft? incase you don't know Microsoft has just officially announced the Lumia 950. and just look at the size of it! for gods sake, it is as big as he is. a phone which is bigger than my tv? no thanks.

I think it would be funny if a new trend popped up of having smaller tablets. I want a world where the iPhone has a 13" display and the iPad has a 6" display.

I guess they think bigger is better. Windows Phone sucks so badly, I guess they had no other option than to go massive.

So THIS is what they meant by "metric expansion of space".

This is why I bought a 735 instead of a 640 XL LTE..

Has anyone handled that massive Sony 'phone', Xperia Z Ultra I think it was. A little smaller than a tablet, and I have no idea how they expected anyone to carry it around with them on a daily basis.

I have the z3 compact. Not sure if its because my pants are too big, or the phone is too heavy. but when ever its in my pockets I have to keep my hands in my pockets otherwise my pants are around my ankles
