4" is marginally bigger in terms of screen size, but it's quite a lot more awkward to use with one hand only.
I also don't like the 16:9 aspect ratio of iPhone 5, it's too narrow in portrait and too short in landscape. 3:2 was so much nicer. I love iPad's 4:3.
Finally, it feels like there's too much bezel on the iPhone 5 (compared to say Galaxy S3 and Note 2).
Samsung innovates and Apple copies, once again.
I'm not spending a dime on Apple products anymore. After the shitty lawsuit war they started, I'm not paying to support that behavior. Fuck Apple.

If this comes out, the sound of all those years of just I cations and excuses (perfect screen size, perfect jeans pocket size, etc.) Will only be drowned out by the new justifications and excuses (perfect purse size, etc.) Sigh.

All companies litigate, what does that have to do with speculation on future product details? It's also a pretty weak reason alone to change buying behaviors if you previous were a consumer of Apple products (their corporate tactics are not new).

Personally - I've used 'large' phones, and I much prefer the size of the iPhone 5. Its big enough but not so big that I can't used it with 1 hand.
I do not understand phablets. I really don't. My Galaxy Nexus is already pushing the limits of what is comfortable to use with one hand, and there is something else that never seems mentioned: Phablets start to get too big for your winter coat pocket, your jean pockets, etc. They simply become uncomfortable to carry, even if you do use them with both hands.
