I switched from iPhone 4 to the Samsung Focus WP7 phone. Great decision, I like it much better. Especially the 4" super AMOLED screen.Posted on Sep 4, 15:13
All smartphones do the basic stuff very well; the rest is just toy value and our curiosity for the technology frontier. We are the most intelligent animal we know, and we test our limits, even if we have to consider fractions on the high bar.Posted on Sep 2, 22:12
If Apple insists on small screen sizes I for one will change my 3 iPhone 3GS's to something in an Android design.Posted on Sep 1, 11:10
With Apple the customer is not always right. Pre-ordered my Sprint Samsung Galaxy SII "Epic 4G Touch" with 4.52" screen. I have big hands, so I need a big screen. We have an iPad 2 it's a good product but limitingPosted on Sep 1, 00:34
4-inch is the magic number for screen size. iPhone is too small, some of these Android phones are too big. Of the phones I've personally used, the 4in. Samsung Focus SuperAMOLED is screen size/quality I like the most - though it has room to improve.Posted on Aug 30, 22:30
I will be very dissapointed for a 3.7" next generation iPhone. I would just keep my old iPhone 4 and not upgrade.Posted on Aug 30, 21:02
There is no notable difference between 3.5 and 3.7-inch. Apple has to at least include a 4-inch screen to stay relevant with the competition and be able to differentiate itself from the iPhone 4. Otherwise people will be hesitant to upgrade.Posted on Aug 30, 16:47
Well actually most consumers don't want a massive phone! 3.5-3.7-inch is more than enough for the majority of consumers and most of those consumers want a top spec phone, in a reasonable size package. These massive 4-inch plus phones are too big.Posted on Aug 29, 23:26
If the screen is a 3.5 or a 3.7, nothing you do will make the screen appear larger. It is what it is. Apple needs to listen to its customers and give us a 4.5 inch display.
