Coming from the G3, I don't expect it to feel much different. FWIW, when I transitioned from the G2 to the G3, I expected to really notice the size difference, but it really wasn't a big deal. As always, YMMV.

thats good to hear. i made a paper cutout of the phone size, . and thought that size might be to big for me. afew minutes ago i borrowed a friends phone who has an alcatel and its about the same size, but to my suprise the phone didnt feel very big. :fingers-crossed:
I told myself that the G3 I have no will be the biggest phone I will get, and would likely get a smaller phone next time around. I'm disappointed that the G4 is actually a bit larger, but I'm going to get it anyways!
This is a concern to me. BUT I felt out and felt up the G3 and found, in the hand, it was not as odd as I was worried it would be. And, the G4 is only a scant bit bigger. So, I decided to go for it. If I freak out the day I pick it up, and seriously think I will not be able to deal, I will just return it.
For me, coming from a 4.3" screen, losing the ability to do everything on the phone with one hand is easily offset by having a screen that isn't so cramped that I feel like I'm fat-fingering everything. My biggest gripe with my current phone is how difficult it is to precisely highlight and select text, followed by how many typos I make from having too small of an on-screen keyboard.
For the G4, I already have a case for it and it still feels manageable in my hand. The leap in screen size is massive and my thumb can now only sweep about half the screen instead of 90%, but the body size seems right to me. For reference, I have tried out the Nexus 6 and iPhone 6 Plus and both of those definitely felt too large.
I went into a VZW corporate store this afternoon on the off-chance they would be able to show me their G4 demo. As I was wandering around I saw an big LG phone I didn't recognize and at first glance assumed it was the G4 already on display. The phone was massive and WAY to big for my tastes. About then I realized I was holding the LG Vista...... whew! Scared me for a sec.
A salesperson came over, but unfortunately they hadn't received anything yet on the G4.
I came from a Moto X (2014) and after a few days with this the Moto X seems really small. And its a 5in screen.
If you guys want small phones buy yourself an iPhone
Coming from a N4 & N6 I'll be just fine. Let me know if u want size comparisons, I should have it in hand in the next 13 hrs.

Honestly it feels tiny in my hand compared to my note 4. Going to take some getting used to
This tool is AMAZING for comparing phones side by side: http://www.phonearena.com/phones/size
I am thinking about getting one and pairing it with my note 4 and i am worried it will be small LOL
I am just flying blind and saying F it.... I bought it without seeing it, touching it, owning a G3 or anything.

to a smaller screen now. This phone rocks! Sure, i have a few (non-dealbreaker) gripes similar to others' but ignoring those, the Note is PERFECT. The screen is the most important aspect of a smartphone and the Note's is gorgeous. I hope Samsung continues to make devices this big and badass because like i said, i won't ever be able to use a crummy less-than-5inch screen again.

Agree, the "old" phones with small screens seem like a joke to me now!
same here .. I can even do with a slightly bigger one .. may be 5.7 .. or may be even 6 inch And the phone is WOW

I couldn't agree more.
At first I thought it was a giganta-phone. But having been a phone owner since 1991 (when they used to cost real money), I must say the Note cleverly nudges the envelope.
My other smartphones look like wee toys.
My tablets look like laptops with their balls cut off.
Out and about: GNote
Between home and office: 17" MBP
But only as long as my eyes can take the searing resolution! My 41-year-old wife fell vocally beyond that 2 months ago...........

ahahahhaha! Nice one! Never heard it before. Or at least be putted like that.
And on the subject, a 5.5" or 5.7" is NOT at all in my opinion a big upgrade from the Note. Or atleast for those who already bought or planning to buy the Note since I haven't heard/read any rumors or anything about any phones in the 5.5-6.5" category.
Now a 6" android phone? With a Dual/Quad SoC with oled/amoled screen? YES SIR!
I was using 7" galaxy tab but its too big .i think if they keep the size og GN but make the screen lil bigger that would be enough for a phone..

I don't think so. It would kill pocketability. You can squeeze in a little more by killing all the hardware buttons, but this is close to the limit.
The pocketability is great now, but we haven't had people putting cases on yet. Bigger+CASE? Ugh.

Well I respect your opinion but for me it's different.
I measured my usual pockets(costumes/jeans) and they are 19cm deep(Jeans) and 17cm(costumes pants) when sitting. So I can staff in there any phone below the above sizes before it's top/bottom emerges.
Oh and both pocket's are abount 12cm wide.
Yeah, we all have many different clothes that it will not fit(maybe same goes for GNote) but making a statement here.
So a 6" GNote look alike phone based on my measurements consisting of H:160mm x W: 92-94mm is really the actual maximum size of pocketability for me.
BUT: Practical? Manageable? Easy to use? Good for a bit of longer than usual calling etc, etc? Nuh, I don't think so.
But then again.. I don't call/speak on the phone much!
Edit: It's not THAT bigger!

Same here...been rockin' a dell streak for over a year. I've looked at the SGS2, but it seems TINY compared to a 5" screen. If the note ever gets to the states, Amazon (US), I'm getting one. A 4.7" would be about as small as I could go now.

I was looking for PDA with a big screen since 2007 after I bought HTC Advantage X7510 with 5". I can say that the ideal for me from 5" to 6" and no more. Now with Samsung Galaxy Note I would never trade it for anything less than 5" and more than 6".

Oh I had done many customizations for a friends X7500(Athena) and I was a real joy. NOT comfortable at all in your pocket. Why I'm saying this?
Just to think from where we came from and we end up with the Note. HTC Advantage, HTC Shift(can't remember if it was released) and so on.
I just got my Note yesterday and spent a great deal of time with the device. I figure this might be a good place to share the experience
1. Pentile display complaints on Note is a moot point. Specially around the curved text edges, it looks like Note is noticeably sharper than the S2
2. Feel is very similar. Note is pretty much a bigger slightly quicker S2 with a larger screen/battery
3. SAMOLED HD is gorgeous
4. Sad to say this but i'm already used to the device size and S2 feels tiny every time i go back to it
5. Onscreen keyboard is easier to use due to size and spacing (it's probably the best onscreen keyboard that i've used and this includes the 10.1 and ipad)
6. S-Pen is awesome and it works much better than any other stylus that i've used including the capacitive ones

I use my SGS2 when out running with RunKeeper, great for voice feedback , music and the odd photo when needed...
This is probably the only reason to stop me going for a Note.
Can you use the Notes stylus on the SGS2 screen ?
Excellent phone but no chance would i buy it, for me it's far too big.

^^ lol. Its so he can see the size difference. i would like to see that too actually as im considering getting a Note next month too.
How about fluid and smoothness? as good as S2?
Is it a pain to use in one hand i.e reaching the far side of the screen? or do you need to use 2 hands?
I read somewhere on here that bigger screens dont actually mean more text on the page, its just larger text. If you load the same page in both browsers do you actually see a lot more on the page of the Note?

If the screen is bigger, but the resolution is the same (e.g. Galaxy S1 and Galaxy S2, the latter has bigger screen but same 800x480 resolutio, so the view will be the same on both, with S2 text being larger). However, the Note has higher 720p resolution, so it should fit more.
Sounds good.
I prefer big screens (100inch screen via projector in my living room lol) so i would love the Note. Im gunna pop down to city centre on the weekend and try get a bit of play time with one in the stores.
The modding scene doesnt look very big on XDA at the moment, i guess thats cos its still new though.
I needed a second phone and was about to get a Note. Then I found out it doesn't have Gorilla glass and some users have already reported it easily gets scratched. I hate screen protectors. I agree with the rest of its wonders, but no Gorilla means no phone to me.

Gorilla glass is just a brand name and samsung might be building their own fortified glass similar to nexus
Btw, gorilla glass does scratch and it all depends on what your device gets exposed to

That may be the reason it feels so big as the iPhone is so small. The value of the gs3 won't depreciate rapidly, so I would hang on to it and try it for another week or 2 before you try to sell it. :good:
Good luck. And P.S. You can get a thin case like the speck pixel hd or even a cruzerlite case from amazon.

that is right oh well i tried.
I actually think it is not big enough. I have the Note but it was too wide for one-handed use, so when I saw the specs for the S3, I said 4.8 should be just right compared to the Note's 5.3 inch screen. But I have to admit I was a bit disappointed, I was expecting the S3 to be a slightly bigger. I see now that the phone is taller but still rather narrow. Don't get me wrong, though, I am loving the phone compared to my iPhone 4, so I am still happy overall! Now if the rumors turn out to be true about the Note 2, bigger screen but narrower and similar to the S3 in terms of curves, then it will definitely be my next phone.
I suggest getting the flygrip. It's a finger grip and a kickstand. You stick it on the back of the phone and the adhesive will keep it in place. You'll never worry about dropping it and with your fingers in the position they are, you'll be able to reach all corners of the screen with ease. You can check it out at
Flygrip.com

But the screen sizes are a huge difference. He can probably reach the whole iPhone screen with half his thumb extended. While the gs3 takes a while thumb and a slide of the hand.
Deebo took your bike too?!
Get apex launcher or Nova. They have a setting where you can swipe down anywhere on your home screens and the notification toggle slides down. That way you dont have to reach to the top so much.
I've been Moto x user for almost a year and I have no desire to upgrade. My work issued me another phone which is G3. Guess what? Moto X has some significant advantages over over that phone, even though it's considered high end device. G3 colors look dull and washed out, not to mention auto brightness feature doesn't work that well. Black color is much deeper and white color looks much better on Moto X. It dims the screen way too much indoors. Here are some interesting images. One is at 100%(bottom) another is on 0% (top) brightness. Images are taken using Panasonic mirrorless camera.
If you are thinking about upgrade, make sure you check out your next device in person.

I just got my moto x first gen four days ago and I'm in love.
I never quite found the phone that I could love until I used this phone.
I have owned M7,M8,S4,G2,Nexus 4&5, Moto G, Optimus G, and then from the Lumia line the 520/635/935.
I might have a problem....

I also love my moto x, but I've found some lacks:
-the device is slightly heavy considering his dimensions;
-the camera could be better;
-the device overheats easily;
so if the new moto x 2014 was not so big maybe I would have bought it
Only concern I have with my Moto X is the Whites are soo yellowish beyond acceptable... I completely hate that... Except for that it's awesome... The ways it sits at hand while calling is just so damn nice :thumbup:

I took it apart once and it's very well built device, I would compromise grams for durability.
Camera is Ok I've taken some decent pictures with it. Most people don't realize that camera is just a tool and adjustments and conditions of picture taking is very important.
That;s the issue of all modern cellphones.
So Moto X users everywhere should be thrilled that you like the phone more than something else? Why should I care who likes what phone and how old said phone is? All that matters is what I like and can make work for me, not random people in the internet with unknown preferences and tastes.

I bought my XT1060 Dev edition off someone for 200 bucks to replace my Nokia 520. I'm on the AT&T network right now but I may switch to Verizon in the near future. It's good to have a phone that can run on both networks.
Moto X is the one
I've been using moto handsets for more than 18 years, I'm crazy about flashing ROMs, Moto X is the first handset which made me stop flashing ROMs, only the new CM12 I flashed it then back again to stock so quick.
I cannot live without the smartness of this phone, it's the smartest, dealing with me smartly and differently at home, car and when even touched or talked to.
My next will be definitely the new Moto X 2014.
This Moto series is incomparable.

I really really loved my Defy and Defy+s. Those were the only cellphones that resisted MY wear without breaking or scratching. It's a pity that Motorola discontinued the line (and their hardware is so outdated).
But the Moto X 1 is the best of its time, no questions asked.

The bezels are ridiculously big!
Why is there a space at the bottom. There are no buttons or speaker. And what's up with the all white front with a color back. This must be Google's attempt to copy the Iphone design. These Pixel phones are ugly.
really daft to copy iphone in every aspect including pricing!!!!
What does this phone offer over iphone 7 plus!
should be priced around £650 for 128gb version at most.

Because it's using a (very slightly tweaked) HTC A9 body...minus the button.

I just think it's funny because the A9 was a huge flop.

Lmao. Me and my friends call the company Hawaii ^^
It's pretty ridiculous that the bezels are this huge with a mono down facing speaker. Even the headphone jack is on the top, there's nothing that can explain the size of the bottom bezel...
The space at the bottom is annoying put something there or shorten the phone.
It is a minor annoyance
It's smaller than an iPhone 6/S/7 Plus, at least. It's shorter and less wide than the Plus, but it's taller and wider than the Note 7. Much closer to the Note 7 than the Plus, though. Thicker than both, but it's honestly such a non-issue with phones these days being absurdly thin already.
The huge chin just looks so out of place. They could have used capacitive buttons or something. Atleast THEN there would be a reason for such a huge chin, and also save us some screen real estate.
for that price, id rather get the iphone 7 plus
the design, the splintering of software features between pixel devices and non-pixel devices, the price ....it's enough to make me consider switching to iPhone if they stay in this direction

Yea, they're very similar.
They are big bezels but they're not exactly hollow. It does allow a bit more space for the battery by moving components forwards and if you don't like that, it's a place to rest your thumb whilst you're reading
According to multiple sources its everything we wanted in a google phone so of course people don't like it.
IMO its awesome IMO who really cares about bezels probably how they got a bigger battery in a nexus / google phone if oyu got the XL at least. With google its all about the software in the phones and the internals. Plus IMO people just mad b/c it looks like a dump iphone who gives a ****. IMO specs beat the iPhone 7 plus so does the price.
People just like complaining because its what they want finally just probably can't get it b/c of price. Well you need a job to get things you want. =)
Also HTC makes awesome phones like the htc m8 and we know how awesome their aluminum is on phones. So we should be glad its not a plastic POS like some other phones. And IMO glass makes it more durable but it is for the antennas thats why upper half on back is glass.
Sorry for vulgarness, just had to put this put there. Btw who cares if it looks like an iphone most people like iphones look.
