With unlimited options, what your perfect phone size?
Since there are so many Smartphone choices nowadays, which size fits you best? From smaller phones like the wonderfully small HTC Aria to huge superphones I'm curious what people actually prefer. Here's a pic of my Aria next to my Dell Streak.....quite a difference! Lol

I like larger phones preferably with a QWERTY

Re: With unlimited options, what your perfect phone size?
I currently use the HTC Evo 4G and its a big phone. I started my Smartphone days with a slide out qwerty windows phone on Verizon that has a stylus and all that, it was a brick. Then I went back to a few feature phones until the first iPhone came out. I then had everyone of them with the last being the 3GS. I have to that I love Android and thats where I will most likely stay.

The Evo might actually be the perfect sized device for me overall. I use my Streak as my regular phone, but I actually wouldnt mind it being slightly smaller. I web browse on my phone quite a bit so I love the screen size. I dont think I could ever go back to a small phone ever again.

I have the Samsung Moment and it's perfect for me. Perfect screen and full keyboard, i'm a happy camper!

Re: With unlimited options, what your perfect phone size?
I had the xperia x10 with a nice big screen and I really liked the 4 inch screen, when I looked at my iphone, it looked so small in comparison.
I now have the iphone 4 and I'm waiting for my Samsung Galaxy S Captivate which should be arriving today sometime which has a larger screen than the iphone 4. I'd have to say I enjoy the 4 inch screens.

As long as I can comfortably hold the thing and that it fits in my super tiny Louis Vuitton bag (the only one I can afford) and still have room for the pocket-sized sunscreen and hand sanitizer and lip gloss, I'm good.
I got the iPhone 4 and I think it's just the right size, but man, I have a hard time holding that darn thing, it's so slick. I'm always afraid of dropping it. So, my husband got this big Otter Box (the one that's about half an inch thick with the hard casing with rubber wrapping) and it makes my iPhone almost twice as thick but now I'm much more comfortable with it.
Sometimes a small phone can be too small...

I have a Moto Droid, screen is 3.7" which is a nice size but I wouldn't mind a bigger one! :O
My dream phone is the Moto X with a keyboard, a giganormous (dual core maybe) processor, vanilla Android and a lot of RAM.
I like Moto's so will wait (im)patiently until they make me one. I could upgrade now but, so far, there is nothing on VRZ that I'm dying to get my hands on.

I like the t-mobile samsung pre-pay phone that costs 19.99
It uses the same sim card technology so I can use it with the regular plan, but even if I break TEN of them a year, I'm still saving money over having a smartphone.
And it's the right size to fit in my front pocket.

Samsung t139, costs 19.99 at wal-mart.

My droid2 is gigantic and i love it. If it were any smaller it would be hard to read the screen and the QWERTY keyboard is <3.

I have an X10 and the Captivate as well. I'm a big fan of the X10, but I'm waiting for their Android update before I mess around with it much again. The Galaxy S devices are nice. The new Samsung Focus Windows phone 7 device uses the same display. After using it I'm deciding between that and the HTC Surround for WP7.
The folks on this site have pretty solid taste in phones :)

I want the Aria size with the Evo speed and options!! The Aria is probably my favorite Android phone in terms of styling, I've always been a fan of smaller, candybar type, phones. I loved the size and shape of my BB Pearl and don't really felt like I gained much with the larger screen on the MyTouch I have now. Though I do miss my physical keyboard, slide phones always seem too think for me, and the less moving parts and hinges the better in my mind.

I actually just left verizon and went to T-Mobile, I've had many smart phones and PDA's. Droid may be a cool platform and all that but I recently went back to BlackBerry ( could not be happier) from an HTC Ozone and went with the Bold 9700, IMO the 8500 series to the 9700 are the perfect size phone for myself especially when you add an otterbox defender case. I am obsessed with the fact of having an open keyboard on the face of the phone, this is a must have for me.

OtterBox is the only case I will ever buy for my phones. They are expensive but money well spent. I also like the added bulkiness they add to the phone, heres a video of a drop test for iphone with an otterbox defender case from a rooftop, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tV2NwC7_9MM

Otter Box cases are extremely well made for sure. The phones I use are generally pretty large and the Otter Box adds too much size for my tastes, but for smaller phones like Blackberry and iPhone it's manageable. They make one for the Dell Streak, but it makes it just too large for me to deal with. Anyone who's job keeps them out in the elements or working in a shop for example should definitely look into them.

Re: With unlimited options, what your perfect phone size?
My HTC Incredible is perfect for me - for now. I love the HTC interface. I've picked up friends' Motorola Androids and been completely lost! I'm sure if given enough time playing with them, I'd like them - but this phone was my first Smartphone, and it was intuitive for me right out of the box.
I am, however, eyeing the next generation for my next upgrade! Karl's like actually has an upgrade available now and he's quite pleased with his phone that's just a phone, and won't be using it. Or I can wait until April and just upgrade my own line.
This is what I have my eye on currently - although it will probably be re-named and the launch date is more likely to be in Q1-2011 rather than Q4-2010.
