Same here. I like my Galaxy Nexus and it's a great phone, but my next phone will definitely be smaller, more like the size of Nexus S.

Agreed. 4 inch screens seem to be the sweet spot for me. I had the Droid X and at 4.3 it was easy to use as well. The Galaxy Nexus is all screen and I like that. The 3.5 screen on the iPhone is doable, but a little too small at this point. I think the new iPhone will definitely have a bigger screen as well.

I played with it at CES, didn't care for it too much personally. I'd rather just use a 4.2/4.3" phone

Yeah it is huge when its up to your head. I find it humorous as well sometimes, but could case less if someone else thinks is akward lol.

The things that device is capable of is unparalleled.

Then I would use a tablet. It lacks the benefits of a 7" or 10" tablet, but doesn't have the portability of a 4" either...

Afer having a 4.3 inch screenon my Thunderbolt I change my mind on this device. It's just too big. I loved the big screen but the device itself was just too big to carry around with me. I ended up leaving my Bolt at home or in the car because of the size.

One of the only reasons I like BlackBerry is the device size.

When the idea of a 4.3" screen first came about with the Evo, I originally thought that the phone was way too big. Fast forward to almost two years, I now think differently, and 4.3" screens are now becoming the 'smaller' of the large screen phones.

Anyway, this phone is way too big for me. I shouldn't *need* to use two hands to type. The largest I would probably go is the 4.6 screen on the Galaxy Nexus.

Too big for one handed use; but, I can see its place for those with a headset.

Yeah the Galaxy Nexus is stretching it (and the pants pocket lol). This may be too much cowbell for this cowboy. They pimped it up big at the Superbowl though.

It's not too often you'll hear a woman complain about 4.3" being too big
