> Why are phones getting bigger again?
Bookmark topic
I'm looking at upgrading and I've looked a few phones but they are all massive!
- TG01
- iPhone
- Satio
- BL40
They are all silly big... why oh why can't they make an all singing all dancing phone in a small box?

what these have in common is good size screens and I guess that is the trend these days.
as long as they remain thin, I'm happy to give up a little height and width to have that bigger screen for browsing, playing and video

Like Masseur said, multimedia is king, so screens are getting bigger, but i can forgo a little screen size for something that does not make me look like i'm suffering from a priapism

It's all about screens and cams. But you're right 5 years ago you didn't want to be seen with todays sized phones. Another answer : retro. (Think back 10 years)

Screens baby, screens. I rather have an almost all screen phone than one with buttons and I want to have as much screen as possible. I believe that that is the main reason as with so many others.
It is the screen.

Until we find a way to get a 4 inch screen to fold in half big but thin phones are going to be a trend. Think of it as the reinvention of the phone.
