Anybody else have zero interest in a 4.5" device

If the chassis had scaled up along with the screen, it would be too unwieldy for many to use.

The chassis of what? The GN? It did, and that's my primary complaint about the device. The bezel top and bottom is bigger than the NS, and the sides are comparable.

 

[STC09]

Anyone have a screen/total surface ratio for the GN and the X, for example?

Passed by a VZW/ATT kiosk recently:

Amazing how the X2 has shrunk in the months since getting a GNex. It's quite manageable now. Lol.

The RAZR, at 4.3", is still too wide and uncomfortable.

The Galaxy Note is a poster child for the "what were they thinking?" category.

I have the sgs2 with a 4.5 inch screen, and I can't stand using anything smaller (I have to squint to use the tiny iPhone)

Is this something new? Wikipedia lists it as 4.3".

It's actually 4.52"

Thanks for the correction. I hadn't realized how much many American models differ from the baseline.

I own the thunderbolt. Anything larger than that would not interest me. The bolt is perfect in size. Ridiculous.

A 4.5" display is a good size in my personal option anything below 4.3" is not useful especially for watching Netflix or YouTube. 4.5" to 5" is the optimal screen size

I agree

0 interest in a 4.5".. It needs to be 4.7" or 5"
My Epic Touch is good, but I would like a little more real estate to play with.

I like big phone such as 4.3 or 4.7 inch phone very much. It feel really awesome while using these phones.

I see having a large screen as a security feature. It deters small handed thieves from wanting to steal my phone. I have the One X and thus far I can truthfully say I have had no small handed thieves attempt to steal my phone.

This is the argument of the typical iPhone user. Bigger does not mean better is what they say.
I use my device as computer first and phone second. I NEED a larger screen. I do a lot of reading and browsing and the 4 inch Captivate and 3.5 inch iPod touch just doesnt cut it for me. Screen size of at least 4.5 inches is a MUST.

I am looking forward to get the Galaxy Note with 5.3"

Ive had the Galaxy Note for a month now. I messed around with it and did my research on it for a month and a half. At first it was a little too much as far as how big the form factor is, but now, I am used to it and I think my next phone may very well be a Note 2. The phone is huge and it's definitely not for everyone, but for me, I am able to use it with one hand and I just started using Google Maps Navigation which works suprisingly well with the large screen of the Note. And, the screen is pretty awesome. I had a iPhone 4 before and now, when I pick up the iphone 4, it seems incredibly small/tiny in my hands.

As it stand now, i won't be interested in another phone unless it has a screen of atleast 4.9".

Went in to the store put one in my hand and next to the ol VM OV it was impressive :-!.. I would go there but no bigger unless you got a bag or purse, backpack etc to keep it in or you could put straps on it and carry it on your back!!
I'M NOT A GIRL SO I'M STILL IMPRESSED BY A INCH AND A HALF..
!!! Stand by to get the Big Gun compensation treatment from your buddies if you get one :-\ lol.!

We need more high end phones in the 4 inch screen size area. I love my atrix. All these new devices keep getting bigger and bigger, and yeah, they are awesome devices, but I have my tablet for that. I want to see the latest specs shoved in a 4 inch phone. So perfect. :thumbup:

With this i absolutely agree. I mean i do so much with my phone so i love having a larger screen. As for usability i think 4.5 even the notes 5.3 or whatever is decently fine. I mean i dont have large hands or anything but i can easily use a Galaxy note with one hand no problem. But i would suppose for others it may be uncomfortable.

I've had a 4in screen galaxy s for along time and well.. Its fine but not amazing. 4in is the perfect size for minimal use and more phone related tasks but when i find my self trapped somewhere and "not going anywhere for awhile" I instantly wish i had a larger screen to read my manga on.. or watch movies on netflix..

I actually think around 4.3-4.5 is perfect. Used galaxy nexus and is great. It only matters how big the phone is, if the bezel is small, good. Anyway 4.0" is a little too small for me.
