Bit OT: I have just read an article about Blackberry's latest offering, the Passport, because it is the size, shape, and about the thickness, of,... well, a passport. It is real button and touch screen, the screen is... square! orientation is just blown away, it is square!
So, this is for the suits, they have an inside pocket to their jackets where their wallet used to live, ideal for a big booklet type tablet like this; or they tuck it in a pocket in the lid of their brief case. "Booklet" would be a good defining term for this size in its own right, and would have to be treated with appropriate respect for that shape. There are things I like doing on the more spread out layout of the iMini, I'd guess you have that on these bigger phone screens, so that is where I see a working advantage. It would fit in my hand a heck of a lot better than the Mini, though that was so much better than a full blown iPad for armchair use.

I bought the 6 and it is a bit bigger than the 5S. The 6 Plus is just simply far too big for my liking. I don't understand exactly why the grand is now moving towards bigger phones. How do you carry the things? Even if they are lighter, they still are bricks. Take Care John D.
