The LTE ones would still need the same/similar certification as handsets. WiFi only is not as stringent these days.

Hmmm, tempted. I had my Nexus 4 replaced two weeks ago and it still as all the protective covers off. They still sell well on eBay.....

The Note 3 is almost the right size for me.
To be honest, I'd be happy with a cheap MP3 player stick and my 11" tablet being my mobile 'phone'. I find my current Galaxy S3 a pain in the neck, I talk for maybe 2 minutes a month on the phone, but the display is too small to be very useful for email or web browsing. I basically use it as an MP3 player in the car and when walking the dog.

I have an iPhone and I would agree that is also too small for extended web browsing or email, but is a great size for use as a phone. I keep a lot of my mobile apps on it for when I go anywhere. The larger screens of some of the Phablets are great to browse on but make it a tough use as a phone. I am happy enough to have separate devices for these tasks.

I bought that for drawing on, for which it is absolutely brilliant. I know other people who have them but never even take out the pen. This thing's huge and ungainly and I can't understand their thinking at all.

There's rumours of a larger iPhone, see the Cool Toys thread's last page IIRC.

There are always rumours of a larger iPhone. Same way there are always rumours of a cheaper one.

If Apple do make a larger iPhone the sound of some people (not on this particular forum) going into reverse about phone size will be deafening. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4
