Nexus and an Ipad for the rest of the stuff I do with tablets...

I think it's hilarious we went to getting phones so they literally fit in the palm of your hand... and the trend is now to make them huge again...

The 5S is going to be an incremental upgrade

They've made "incremental" upgrades for a couple years now. That's the problem.

dryflyelk

Depends on how you define incremental

Is be happy with better innovation.

It seems very strange at first

dryflyelk

I agree, it took me about a day to get use to the bigger phone...

The best reasoning I've heard about phablets

That was exactly my thought.

The problem is, if you just need a phone, you don't need the iPhone either

mogelijk

5/8/13 5:51pm

That isn't the thing. What I said was...mainly for a phone, not only.

JamesDean

You mean another inch and a half

5/8/13 6:57pm

Like I said. It's already the right size for its main purpose.

The Note 2 is awesome. Best mobile device available right now.

Yep. I also have owned an iphone and now have Note 2. Ive never been so

Just take a look at Mac OS...

Well, Windows tried making a radical change and it flopped.

SandYFan

Win8 is a great phone/tablet OS. The Surface Pro is cool.

tyscat

5/8/13 5:11pm

You learn a lot by innovating but you also piss a lot of people off.

vacougfan

5/8/13 5:14pm

Win8 may be the worst OS I have used in a long time...

Bobby Dooley

Uhm... ok.

vacougfan

5/8/13 5:19pm

That was just my experience...just my opinion.

Bobby Dooley

5/8/13 5:25pm

And I respect that.

vacougfan

I don't think that's the case.

Apple has a lot of money in the bank....

I think Microsoft's problem was trying to force it on desktop users

i've never wanted to get locked into the apple paradigm...they don't really

I coverted from the iPhone 4 back in the fall when the 5 came out...

It's a question of what you want your phone to do

Nikomedes

I don't think much innovation has happened in smart phones since the iPhone...

NFC/wifi-direct

bushy7

5/8/13 5:14pm

NFC is underutilized and under-developed as a tech...

Tokolosh

5/8/13 5:19pm

I use NFC all the time. send photos (easier and faster than texting)

bushy7

5/8/13 5:25pm

Sadly, likely much of the reason it is underutilized

Note 2 is the best phone there is

That is part of the difference between Android and iPhone

That is not typical. Get a galaxy s4 or wait for the note 3

I stopped reading after you said Droid. Get a Samsung product for heaven's sake

Crush4

Actually, I'm worried about where Samsung is going

It is a Samsung Droid Charge

HTC One. You'll love it.

Nokia Lumia 920 is blowing me away. Love this thing

I wonder how much longer they will survive

Win8 phones remind me of Palm WebOS phones.

Bobby Dooley

I fear that Apple's innovation may have died with its founder.

Y-er

5/8/13 5:26pm

So far it's proving that...

ToonArmyCoug

Their new commercials are all about how awesome the camera is.

Crush4

I saw that...

I was about to buy an S4 but should I wait for the Note 3 instead?

The note 3 will be awesome, but prob a little bigger

I had to get rid of several pairs of jeans. It was a good thing, really.
