I like my gs3 and it is in an Armor case so it is sizeable. Fits in my pocket still. My next will likely be the note 4. It is as big at the edges as my present phone in ot's case. Personally I am glad they are getting to have some heft to them. The smaller ones don't feel right, no balance to them. And the note 4 will be a bigger screen which will help my old eyes as I mount my phine o the dash when off road for viewi maps and mapping as well. I would like a tablet, but need the phone function on occasion.
I am happy with android. As to the name, well, iPhone and android imply the same thing to me in scifi. But I do love my countless free and awesome apps.
