Nailed it.

It's got to have some killer features for me to leave Android and my Nexus 5.

I love apple products and currently use the iPhone 5...but this whole new big ass screen thing is stupid. I don't need a 4.7 inch screen. The 4 inch screen currently used is perfect. You can barely fit the phone into your hand and still text comfortably nowadays cause the screen's so big

+1 im not loving it as an apple fan. I dont get the bigger phone crap that those others are pushin and why the Mac is following instead of leading. The 4inch is already big for the pockets, i do not need anything bigger, and uggh on that phablet BS. The iPad mini is for that purpose, I dont need to talk into a loaf of bread size device, its imo. I just hope the 4.7 still fits proper it the hand to use singularly.

Also, why do Android fanboys always take every opportunity to jump on bashing iPhones? To each his own (phone) I guess ...

I have a feeling that Andriod users are better at it... I swear by iPhones for now, but imo Android is just as good, maybe even a bit more advanced... I just went for the looks ...

I agree. I've seen some of the phones that come through the door for review and they started to get comically huge. I think a .7 increase should strike a good balance between slightly more real estate and not getting overly bulky.

Here's an iPhone 5 next to a 5" screen for reference
