This! I recently bought a new smartphone and I don't get why screen size has constantly inched up, and pretty much across all price ranges! I'd understand if it was just gaming or photo-oriented ones..
If this goes on we'll all end up with comically large clown phones.
In many markets your smartphone is your primary, or only, computing device. Many people use their phones as media consumption devices. Those are the two primary drivers of our ever growing handsets.
Don't forget the "bigger number means better" marketing.
