Man if the new way of phones is 4.7 or bigger :{

I loved the 3.5. The 4" was cool, because it was not such a huge leap in size difference.
 
Honestly some of you bus are probably right that we just aren't used to bigger phones. Il reserve judgment to see how sexy the phone looks :lol

But 5.5 is OD for a phone.
 
man..honestly, you guys are going to adjust..

I used my 4s for 2 years, switched to the s4, and now whenever I hold my 4s it feels so damn small, same goes with my girls iphone 5

I love the size of the s4....can't wait to get rid of it though and cop the 6 :lol
 
It's a phone. Who cares if they hold it up to their ear to answer? People are getting too stupid with the judgments of what phones people have and how they use them.
 
Exactly. Some people really benefit from the extra screen size as well . What we see from android right now is a phone suited for everyone. If you want a large phone , get a note. If you want the latest hardware, get an s or one series(note also applies). If you want ease of use and practical features, get a moto x or Nexus 5. Android users jave had those luxuries for a while, and it is nice to know that ( most likely ) Apple will begin offering the same kind of user experience. If they do release two sizes of phones, it should allow everyone to pick what works for them, and not just go off of hardware or features; if you like iOS get iOS, if you like android get android. With as mamy cross compatible services that are being created on both systems, I dont really see what all of the arguing is about best os anymore.
 
Wish i could keep my JBed iphone 4S for all eternity....but planned obsolesce is a mother.  Guess i will have no choice but to upgrade.

My primary phone function is music.  I have loved my 4S's size for gym convenience and running.  I want nothing to do with a bigger phone.  And everyone is always "just get an ipod" but i don't want to carry around 2 devices im always on the go and its super easy to have a phone that does everything 
 
I thought I read that the 5C wasn't selling that well. Apple should just keep 1 phone on the market but give it an array of colors for buyers to choose from. Look at the response to the gold iPhone 5s? Imagine if apple's premium version of their phone had purple as an option? Every woman would go nuts

exactly im the same way...especially with cloud storage etc.... i just keep a phone. End of the day its basically buying to exact same devices except one has built in phone features. its just consumerism and wasting money.

As far as having more then one type of phone i feel its justified this go around seeing the difference in size and the comfort level of the individual. But to make basically two or more different type of phones and its main diff is pastel/vibrant colors is just a cash grab and apple way to cash in and take some of the market from the ppl who were offering case/housing mods as a business.

Apple believe it or not for as much as ppl say they are innovative and ahead of the curve, are pretty much taking cues and copying the few consumers who mod/alter be it j/b etc... their products and improve/tweak them. 

Pretty much every improvement and change apple has made over the last several yrs have been inspired, stolen, or outright paid for and copyrighted from the jailbreak/mod scene

QFT
 
i got ios 8 beta....

a few things..

1. the new message is basically a rip of bitesms and snapchat...to which snapchat is a rip off of an older tweak.

2. the new activator is basically activator cydia app

3. the new control center operates pretty much like cc controls.

4. the new widget mode etc... is like a cheap knockoff of lockscreen and intelliscreen

5. they basically stole folder enchancer

6. the new blacklist option is basically iblacklist

7. they have a new setting to control ad blocking ie... the cydia app adblocker

8. the new camera features were stolen from camera+ cydia tweak...including tagging pics..and adding a description to the pic and organized albums.... timer...steady shot

9. their is suppose to be an added feature to alter status bar aka add date, weather, changer carrier name.... I think we all know that was stolen from jailbreak

10. alternate keyboards including a swype option..... 

Not to mention being able to record your display and a few other additions...

Ppl may say oh the jb/mod scene is small etc... and not a large pie in the community. But if that werent true...apple wouldnt be stealing ideas, and paying off/buying/hiring tweakers/hackers from the jb community.

and most of those sound like things we've BEEN seen in android, minus a few things
 
IMO iPhones are the perfect size....

at dudes wanting ipad sz phones. Can't eem fit in their pocket, need a backpack to carry their phone.

I'm good on all that.
I would like a bigger screen, but definitely not a phablet.  Has to small enough to fit in my pocket still.

true both are guilty of doing it...its just apple is more polarized. Dont get me wrong ios 8 is cool minus a few bugs... But apple/android are in a standstill kinda position... we wanna stop modding/hacking etc... but in doing so that will stop the ideas they are stealing... and if they just come out with every mod/tweak/hack feature all in one phone... it would stifle sales and ppl wouldnt go out and buy the "NEXT BIG THING" if every possibility etc was all in a phone they already have.
 
If a bigger screen is all there is to look forward to, I'm good with my jailbroken 5. Definitely getting that new iPad for the living room though.

This is my EXACT scenario. I love my 4s, pandora downloader and the skip function is the truth. There is not much difference between a 4s and 5.

yea and no... a jb one then nah outside of speed...a better camera speakers etc.... but its not like some game changing HUGE difference... to me the 3gs and 4s were probably apples best overall phones in terms of quality etc... for the time of their release.

you would be surprised with how nice the Note 3 fits in my pocket. I sometimes have to feel for it to make sure it's even in there :lol

LTE was the game changing difference between the 4s and 5. 3G is a joke and I'm unlimited on Verizon so it was definitely worth the jump.
 
Man I remember iOS 2 and 3. Cydia had me so cool. Recording videos on my iPhone 3G. The iPhone has come a long way.
