4.7 is slightly smaller than my Nexus 5 which is HUGE. I think iPhone users are going to be in for quite a shock. A big phone usually means two handed use, compromises on battery life, etc. Interesting, that not too long ago, I kept hearing how my phone was too big, the 4" is the natural size by some Jobsian logic, wont fit the pockets of teens/women, etc, etc. Glad to see Apple contemporizing though.

I'm starting to think this was a move for Apple to not lose Asia as small phones are really out of style there. Apple lives in fear of only becoming an "American" company.
