Nah, I don't like those big phones. The Z10 or whatever incarnation of it at the same size will probably be as big as I go. I don't use my phone as a mobile computer so I don't need a huge screen to read and type.

You get older, your eyes get worse...you will be asking for that bigger screen.

Ha! I'm only a couple years younger than you. That's why they made the Zoom feature.

Seriously, I think people look ridiculous with those ridiculous size phones. How do you talk on them?

lightweight metal has pro's and con's. Can't imagine how sick you would feel pulling a brand new phone out of pocket and seeing it warped.

Their is a difference between someone trying hard to bend a phone...and someone getting his phone bent just from having it in his pocket all day.

I could take most phones and bend them or break them if I tried. I have never known a phone to bend just from having it in my pocket all day.

Difference. That is why I am not sure if it is real or not at this point.

There is no way that someone should be putting as much pressure on a phone in their pocket as that guy did just now to get it to bend.

Unless someone is carrying something heavy and having it rest against the legs/phone.

Yes...if it is real It would make you pretty angry.

Did you see the apple fan that got the first phone and dropped it live on air when he opened the box? It did not break it but that would have sucked lol.

Also seen some people already turning their Iphone 6 plus in as the just can't get used to the size of it already. Only a day or so and they can't get used to the size of it even though they knew it was that size already. Crazy.

Ridiculous...How do you mean?

Samsung will be suing shortly for stealing their curved screen patent.

Some people like it.

But proof is in the pudding and frankly I am surprised they are still in the mobile phone business because they have taken a beating.

I like that commercial.

I wonder if they tried to get a video of Steve Jobs calling the big phone...hummers.

Because while their margins in the U.S. have fallen way off, they're doing brisk business in other parts of the world.

As for the physical keyboard, I got a friend who has a BB w/the keyboard and he just likes it. I let him try my Z-10 and he was cool with it, he just felt more comfortable with the keyboard. I had a Torch for two years so that eased me into the touch screen use. I still have problems, but I work it out.

In the end it is whatever is best for the individual.

For some reason I thought my upgrade was not due till next year. The wife says it is later THIS year. (still don't think that is right lol).

But was looking at the phones and unless I go for a bigger screen phone...I am just not that blown away by the newer phones compared to my S3.

I might even just get a larger Micro SD Card and an extra battery for my current phone and stay with it and upgrade later when a phone I really like comes out...again that is if I don't go for a bigger screen.
