SGSIII considered a Phablet?

[mountainman]

Just ordered mine today (to keep the unlimited plan alive, like so many others...)

Just thinking - does a "phablet" have to come with a stylus/pen? This is almost as big as the Note - if VzW had the Note, I would be on it, like Oprah on a ham sandwich. But I think the SGSIII is a nice blend of pocketable phone and movie-viewing goodness. Do you really have to rock this and a tablet?

What do all you guys and gals O think?

No, is no way close to the note, I have Gnex and when I put it next to the note. The note to me was a big difference I couldn't believe how big the note screen was compared to my Gnex. Now the s3 is just a little larger than the GNex. So no the s3 is not consider a phablet

I don't think it counts as one, but I do think its enough to get by without needing a separate device.

However, if the Note 2 comes to Verizon there's a very good chance this S3 is going straight to ebay.

The note is a phablet. I played with a one x today( which has very similar dimensions to the sgs3) and it felt really good in hand. The note is a huge device and yeah it can be called a phablet but the sgs3 isn't in the same category.

It's still under 5". The Dell is a phablet.
