I was very disappointed when they announced the bigger size. But it seems everyone wants bigger. Even apple caved.
I have the 5s, and I'm holding out as long as possible.
IMHO, all the companies are focusing big sized phones to try to stay current in the spec war.
When you have a phone that 25%-30 smaller, you can't cram in a big battery along with all other features/gimmicks.
It sucks. Yeah, many or most consumers like big phones, but some of us like human-sized phones too.
