    The 7 a is 6.3" while I came from a 6.7" device which I found still too small. 7" sounds about right for a pocket device, 13" good for a tablet. Haven’t tried a 15", that one will be probably a bit on the heavy side.

      How big are your pockets!? Seriously, 7 inches was the size of the Nexus 7, the first tablet I bought. Not the kind of device you could use with one hand!

        I carry them in the side pockets of military-style fatigues. The problem with small screens is legibility and being able to precisely hit a glass tty key with my thumb. I can comfortably use a 6.7" device in one hand. The Nexus 7 had considerable bezels if I recall correctly and was relatvely bulky. A thin bezelless 7" phablet should be manageable, I think.

          Well congrats on the big hand, I guess! This is the first time I’ve seen someone asking for phones to be larger rather than smaller; I wonder why they stopped making the Pixel XL devices.
