Anyone Else Feel 5.1" Is Too Limiting But 5.7+" Is Too Big?

That pretty well describes my feelings and it's been what's kept me away from the Note line. Well, it looks like to soon-to-be-released S7 may be to long awaited answer to my hopes...a 5.5" curved or flat screen option. I'm super psyched. There may be an S6 up for sale soon. ;)

I'm extremely happy with 5.1, in fact for me it's still peaking on the bigger side... I actually prefer my wife's 6S at 4.7

Agreed. I tried out a Nexus 6P for about a week and it's just to large for me to pocket, but my eyes loved it. A 5.5 may be a perfect compromise.

I have a note 3 but I use a belt holster. I may look dorky but it is comfortable. I hate any phone in my pocket.

The S6 is my sweet spot for screen size. I used an iPhone 6+ for 6 months and grew to like that size as well. Was wishing it ran Android after awhile tho. I still have that as my backup device and put my sim in it occasionally . So I guess the S6 is the minimum size, but perfect while the 6+ is the max size for me. Anything in between would be OK. A screen that is to small is harder to use for me. The notes are toooooo big tho.

I am fine with the phablet size. I have adjusted very well to the Note series / other big phones. I am currently rocking my 6P. I tried to go smaller (with an S6) in the past but regretted it when using apps and seeing how much little space I had versus on my bigger phones.

Exactly.. If I only used my Oh NE as a phone, texting and very occasional FB check, the S6 size would be good for me. Once u started using my phone more than my computer, the Note size was all I could use.
