Just a random anecdote, but I was in a T-Mobile store a couple of weeks ago, and I overheard some random woman looking at phones. When she saw the iPhone, her immediate reaction was: "Ew, oh my god, the screen is so tiny! That's awful!"

I've gotten a similar reaction: I was asked why my iPhone was so small by my gf's mom, who is (apparently) not very familiar with smartphones.

I don't think I want a larger phone, but I can understand why Apple might make them.
