Which Cell Phone do you own?
-
One plus one. Amazing phone, besides some touch screen problems here and there.

I need a new phone because I can only use mine to make voice calls on external speaker. I want to stick with Android because people pay me to develop for the platform.
I'd been thinking of getting a Nexus 6P, but the Blackberry Priv has just been released, and I'm interested.
There's a positive review at The Register. The pros are you can add SD cards for additional memory, and the US version has wireless charging. The main downside is a lack of a fingerprint scanner, which is the new hotness in Android land, and it's not got a USB-C socket, but that's not really a big issue. Oh, and it's running version 5.1, rather than 6.0, of the OS, but an upgrade should come soon.

The other wrinkle is that if I get another BMW bike then I could fit it with their smartphone cradle, which is due in the second quarter of next year.
This holds up to a 5 inch phone, which is good for the Nexus 5X or Blackberry Priv, but too small for the Nexus 6P. It also offers wireless charging via QI as well as using a micro USB socket.

iPhone 6S or iPhone 6S plus? Does size matter on mobile screens?
-
depends what you really do with it. initially i thought the plus was massive, but after using it, the size grew on me and it's really helpful watching videos if you're just waiting around for people to turn up and what not…
the only downside being that it will not fit in whichever pocket you put it in perfectly anymore.. or in certain places in the car and such..

I mainly use my phone for web browsing etc, so the bigger screen appeals. The jeans pocket thing is what's holding me back so just wondering how much of an issue it is?

I still have my old Galaxy Note 2, which is only slightly smaller than the 6S Plus. You get used to the size, and you get used to putting it in a back pocket, where it fits just fine. Big screens are the way to go, especially for someone called _Mega_tron.
-
depends on where you put it, i never put my phones in the front cause it never sits well, as for the back pockets, the stick out a little but when i say little it's probably less than 1cm…

I was lucky to replace my very old crappy phone with a Galaxy S6 from a fellow member, but as I don't care much for stuff like that wasn't aware how huge it is. No chance to fit it in chestpockets of shirts or denim jackets. It's a bit of a bummer, as a significant purpose of a mobile phone should be to be easily carried. :-\
Not sure wether I'll roll with carrying it with the pocketflaps open, I might be too OCD for that.
