How big is really big?

This question is quite relevant particularly in the Indian Mobile market where every month we welcome a new model with additional features and extra large screen size. I am yet to understand the way things are going how to differentiate mobile, tablet & phablet. Few years back it all felt like the size of these things will reduce and will come down to just as a bluetooth headset. But the fact is something different, now the 5" is the size where most of the competition is happening. Major brands such as Samsung, Micromax & Sony already introduced one each in the segment during August '13. The difference between the tablet and phones now reduced to 1.5" as Samsung Mega came with 5.8" screen.

More than calling the additional usage and experience offered by these phones are the vital reasons for the selection. Graphic games, easy to carry movies on the move, online magazines etc add the flavours. We need to wait and watch how soon will the difference of 1.5" will be eliminated and will both these categories merge in to one by wiping one of the category.
