    When picking your new phone do you consider it's size?
    I find that over the past year or two most phones have got bigger due to the features demanded by the consumer. 2 megapixel camera, bluetooth and removable memory is standard in most phones now.

    I was looking on TheRegister today and noticed Samsung's new phone. Looking sweet :D

    I went from a Nokia 6100 to a 6680 and I have to say it feels alot better feeling as if I actually have something in my hand,

    I went from a V525 to a 6680 to a K750. Size doesnt really matter but I kinda got annoyed with the 6680 cos it always looked so massive in my pocket. Great phone though!

    I went from an 8210 (remember them?!) to a 6600 and now im moving to a n80, which is slightly smaller again. I dont want a small phone again if the only reason its small is cos they've removed all the features!

    Same here. I used to conform to the cliché of 'girl always rummaging in handbag for phone' but not since I got the 6680. At first I found it very chunky but I much prefer it for the larger screen now.

    Size does matter, I used to have an n-gage which was a big brick of a thing and kind of awkward when making calls. I have a k750 now which is great.

    I wouldn't buy that samsung though, It's either Nokia or SE phones for me!

    Next on the agenda is the N73. Looks great!
