      I'm sad they increased the screen size. 4 inches is just right for me - I want a phone that I can reach all around the screen with one hand.

      This is the only reason I might end up going with a 5s after all. I don't want a huge phone.

        That's my other gripe with iPhones, personally. I like a bigger phone. The iPhone feels tiny to me.

          Again though, to each their own.

            I'm a girl and girl's pants have small back pockets. I refuse to wear a holster, so the phone either has to fit in my back pocket, or get in cozy with the "girls" if I don't have pockets.

              I'm kinda interested in the iWatch, but that price seems a bit high, compared to all the others. I'd probably have to see it and play with it in person to know for sure. Plus it sucks for lefties who wear their watch on the right wrist, as the knob is on the wrong side, unless they have an "invert" function.

                Ah. Well guys don't have that luxury...at least I hope they don't...cringes Sorry, bad mental images just popped up...

                Anyways, why not in the front pockets?Those would probably be easier.

                  Womens pants really don't have front pockets. You are lucky if a tick tack can fit in some of them. Bra or back pockets are where it has to go!

                    Most of us just get used to it.

                        Obvious reasons are obvious.

                            I'm going to get the iPhone 6 soon. The extra big screen and thinner package are the big deals for me. The faster proc is a minor bonus.

                              I'm going to consider the watch too.

                                  How big do you want? The new iPhone 6+ is enormous. That's a small tablet, not a phone.

                                    I could see me using it. So often I only look at my phone to see if something has happened. If the watch keeps me updated without needing to go to the phone itself, that could be a major win.

                                      I don't think I would use the apple watch. personally I like to say as "technology free" as possible when out of the house/not at work. I don't like being tied to technology, I guess I'm one of the few IT folks like that.

                                        I'm thinking that the watch actually would help to keep me "technology free." I can't be disconnected but it lets me less "involved."

                                          The A8 is faster but what is cool is that it uses only a fraction of the power of the A7.

                                            Is it bigger than the Note 3 or a couple other Android phones? If yes, fine. If not, still doesn't stand. 😛
