Daniel Jalkut, jogger and developer of MarsEdit that I am actually using now to post this quote about the iPhone’s 6 size:
Many of us have reacted with flip disdain for larger phone sizes, but as I said earlier most of the perceived problems have not turned out to be a problem for me thus far. The actual problems however are worth noticing, and will hopefully justify to Apple that a 4? form factor is worth keeping for the long haul. I still haven’t decided whether to keep the iPhone 5 around “just” for the purposes of running and other sporting activities, but a theoretical 4? iPhone 7 would certainly get my attention for all the benefits of a smaller size that I’ve described.
This morning I ordered my iPhone 6, not 6 Plus because I thought it’d be too big to fit it in a suit jacket. As excited I am to play with the new iPhone, I am also worried about its size.
The size of the original iPhone and the one of the iPhone 5 later on, seemed perfect for my hand, and for my usage. Maybe I’ll be able to do more things with a bigger screen but I wonder how that larger device is going to impact my day-to-day life. We’ll see it in a couple of weeks.
