Phablets are FTW and WAY better than pathetic small phones. Once you got phablet, everything else is just freakin junk in comparison

i'm sorry you have little tiny hands like futur epresident donald turmp. maybe you too can turn your anger about your tiny child hands into something important. if anything it makes your tiny child like dick look bigger when you touch it alone at home becuase no one likes you

as aforementioned, actually manipulating them is only one concern about big phones and they can be unwieldy for even folks with large hands

i suppose putting them into your cargo pants pocket would result in less bending but falls outside of the definition of "normal" use

I've tried to get the plus the last 2 times but they were out of stock and I'm all about some immediate gratification when I go to the Verizon store. Maybe this year I'll replace my 6S with a 7+. Either way, my needs with be suited and I'm sure the phone will feel great in my large masculine hands.

i know this is a common sentiment but you dont need to be a giant to use a phablet. phabletrs are designed by brilliant engineers and programmers to be used and enjoyed by everyone, from the tiniest korean woman to the hugest chinese man. and everyone in between. from stout and powerful tori, to medium size me, all the way to 3-5 and autistic bloody way up there in the stratosphere - we can all phablet in harmony.

when i wear my sisters jeans so my rear end looks cute for my boyfriend bruce to pinch before he fucks me hard and calls me fag, sometimes the corner of my phablet comes out of the pocket. and you know what? thats alright by me. that way people can see that ive got a big hunk of gold in there and they know im packing processor power.

I got a notification from t-mob that, after a year, my account standing is now in good stead and I can upgrade (various credit fuckery has got me to a 714 FICO in 11 months in the US) so i went down to the store to check out hugephone+ since i lost my iPad mini on a flight back from DC and was thinking that one device could pretty much be both. picked it all out and went to sign up and the dude in the store said I can't have it until april 7th, precisely a year after they hosed me for a $400 deposit just to get a sim. major loving fail t-mob

anyway decent sized iPhone will be out by then so I'll probably just get that and a mini 4 running the best os, iOS 9.3

i knew this post wouldn't be interesting but it was even less so than i imagined

I hated my phablet because I refuse to use anything but one thumb on a phone, and it was hard to do that. It had a resistive touch screen though which was sweet because I could use it while wearing gloves or whatever.

Raskin had one problem: Jobs regarded him as an insufferable theorist or, to use Jobs's own more precise terminology, "a shithead who sucks".

one camera is a good idea... but two cams is even better. i am personally holding out for three cams on the iphone 8. fingers crossed friends 😤

tim cook interview with time magazine

quote:

Cook actually thought that might be the end of it. It wasn’t: on Feb. 16 the FBI both escalated and went public, obtaining a court order from a federal judge that required Apple to create GovtOS under something called the All Writs Act. Cook took deep, Alabaman umbrage at the manner in which he learned about the court order, which was in the press: “If I’m working with you for several months on things, if I have a relationship with you, and I decide one day I’m going to sue you, I’m a country boy at the end of the day: I’m going to pick up the phone and tell you I’m going to sue you.”
