    Seeing the sales of iPhone 6 vs 6+ I think the next BlackBerry full touch should be between 4.7 to 5 inches in size only and overall smaller than the Z30 and better balanced. A true one handed Z10 replacement.

    IMO the IP6, note 4 and the nexus 6 are too large for most of the market.

    What do you guys think?

    Agreed. The z10 is the perfect size for me.

    Good point. But I got so used to the 5" screen on my Z30 that don't think I could go any smaller. Maybe it's just me.

    I think 4.7 - 5 is a great size. 5 inches is fine, I have a Galaxy S5, but something more manageable with one hand.

    So even if they could still minimize the dimensions with a 5 inch screen phone. I can do that.

    Z30 size screen would suit me, with as little wasted space around it as possible. 16:9 photos should fill it please. Maybe with a little spare space for touch command inputs (I mean buttons virtual or otherways).

    Z30's screen is perfect. Just reduce the size of the bezel and make display bigger keeping overall size of the phone same.

    They should do both a 6 inch phone and a basic 5 inch phone. The venture in the phablet market should be taken with caution like they did with the passport. The extra space on the 6 inch phone will give BlackBerry more room for active frames to look kinda like they do on the passport. I don't even scroll to the next set of active frames so everything on one page would be awesome. I think they can fit a lot more of the overflow menu on to the bottom like the passport.

    Or keep it to 5 inches and make the bezel's and overall phone as small as possible.

    I think the iphone 6 with its 4.7 inch screen and super slim profile is ideal for 1 handed use. Its the only thing I like about the iphone 6.

    Before BB decides to do another touch ... it should heavily consider:
    Thinner bevel, license new touch screen technologies over the long haul -
    Enable when cracked the SCREEN and touch gestures/tap actions WORK!

    What would the maximum allowable screen size considering the Z10 dia mentions? Probably a 4.5inch phone.

    I agree that the Z10 is a very comfortable size but it could be thinner as well.

    I personally think that if it were possible to make the z10 thinner, keep the thickness and put in a higher capacity battery.

    Agreed. It's either 16:9 or 1:1. Too much variation creates fragmentation.

    4.5-5inch 16:9 screen but with the smallest, lightest, thinnest bezel and body possible (without forsaking battery capacity) seems to be the summary of this thread.

    But in all honesty I think BlackBerry will be going for 5.5inch and above as it seems like the trend right now. It's gonna be 2 handed phones will the way now.

    I'm telling you a 6 inch phone would be best! They just have to make small bezels and make it slight thin but keep a big battery!! Then make a 5 inch phone with small bezels kinda like the nexus 5. Just needs a better battery.
