Its funny that prior to the iPhone and then the Galaxy Note, phones seemed destined to become smaller and smaller, until they disappeared into another peripheral like smart glasses or a watch. What's happened instead is that they've become bigger and bigger. My smartphone prior to the iPhone had a 2.2" screen. After that, it quickly went from 3.2" to 3.5" to 4.3" and onwards, and my current one is 5.8". I had a Motorola Q once and felt like I was holding up a big scientific calculator to my ear.
