If you own a big phone, then you can relate to this funny, short video I made
Link to the video: https://www.facebook.com/video.php?...834654164&type=3&video_source=pages_video_set
I understand that some people get made fun of for getting big phones but most of the time there is a very good reason. Like me I have huge hands and if I had something with a 5 inch or smaller screen it just wouldn't fit right. IPhone for example feels like its microscopic when I hold one.
The title should be - Video About Big Phones.....Cause it sure ain't funny.

That's gonna leave a mark, but your right, it didn't register on my humor scale either.
Even my colonoscopy was funnier
These comments are way funnier than the video
Now this is a big ass 7 inch phone http://wmpoweruser.com/new-7-inch-windows-phone-shows-up-at-the-hong-kong-electronics-fair/. To be carried with a suit case instead of a case
This thread is about as funny as a screen door in a submarine!
Yeah, no one involved in that video has a future in comedy.

Awful.. You seem like a lonely guy. POF is probably what you need in your life. These videos aren't gonna work out for you and anyone who says your good at comedy is just being nice or is the type of person who laughs at dogs humping

Here's a new video of the Evo with a glimpse of the Qik app and facebook on the Evo. mashable.com/2010/05/19/htc-evo-hands-on/
Man the evo looks enormous in that guys hand, i know it is big but it actually isn't THAT much bigger than a N1 or iphone which is a really good thing, don't want it not fitting in my pocket now .
Other than that, pretty much the same exact thing as all the other videos i've seen so far, hopefully there will be some early dedicated reviews before the 4th(still getting one anyways, always good to see the faults so you are aware of them and if they get fixed or not).
Nice view into Qik, looks pretty awesome.

Does anyone else kinda lean back from the screen when the dust comes up?
I have that odd habit.
Blame it on the a.a.a.Alcohol...
thank god for insurance...
Damn! That sucks!
Bummer! I've actually dropped mine once so far as well, which is unusual since I have an iron grip. Of all the phones I've had in the last 10 years this is probably my 4th drp. I blame the slippery plastic.

yeah it is very slippery and i order the case too it was commin in on monday
At least we know now, that Gorilla Glass shatters as well
Oh! How horrible! I can't believe you would show something like that on a public site! There could be children watching!
My sympathies. I can't own a smartphone without insurance either, and for those of us who torture their smartphones like myself, it's worth every penny.
What's the deductible?
wouldn't it be easier to just replace the glass? I imagine it's cheaper than the deductible. ifixit did a tear down of the atrix and the glass is not affixed to the screen like the iphones, so all you'd need to do is get a new glass and slap that on, then put the phone back together.

well.... at least this proves that the face actually IS glass. Far too many times i've found myself flicking the front of the phone and thought "...... this don't feel like glass".
And no offense.... but total Fail for quoting that rapper. Can't think of his name.... all i know is that he sucks.

eeeeh..... i think even that's debatable. I kinda think he lost all credibility with his last performance at the Grammy's last year.... when he performed that song which you quoted. HORRIBLE! If you have to rely solely on autotune, you shouldn't be a musician. That also kinda goes for the Black Eyed Peas.....

Following that logic, most rock, alternative, and hardcore music denies their artists as being musicians because they turn distortion on on their amps.
Hmm ......

Insurance is the best $5 a month you can spend. Very smart move on your part. My wife dropped her 3 month old Evo in a puddle. After soaking it in rice for a few days it still works, but the screen has a purple tint sometimes.

If you ask me... for the most part they're quite similar. Now... i'm not saying it's like GANSTER rap or any of that crap..... but still.
Flac Vest: There's a big difference between some artists using a bit of distortion..... and something like this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kAkSp11c7m4
There are plenty of other artists i'd rather listen to day in and day out.... namely Kerli. Absoutely fantastic voice whether it's live or album track. Kinda like this one for a live example:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDpOfeZXw1o&feature=related
Can also find a video on Youtube of her singing that very song on a webcam to a sick fan.... and she still sounds quite good even though she's not really pushing her voice much.
As for the OP.... any word on replacement/repair?
@Elemental: I stand corrected. Good God.
I love that this conversation is even possible here.
This is why I got a otterbox case. No matter how careful I am with my phone I know accidents happen.

It's danish, but everyone can see the unboxing.

Must admit, I had the same feeling after watching that and sticking to my HOX. I'm not gonna cancel my pre-order though, I'm sure I'll love it when it comes.
I'm of the opposite opinion. It's looking better as I see it being handled more and more by reviewers. A big issue with phones this size is usability with one hand. Contrary to the specs it seems the Samsung may actually be narrower than the One X, and the rounded profile will give better reach. I like my One X very much. It's built stunningly well and feels very good in the hand, but even with my good sized guy hands I can just barely reach the ends of the screen as well as the hard buttons at the bottom without repositioning my hand.
The strengths and weaknesses of these two phones complement each other so well that there's nothing between them overall net. (The One XL has none of the problems the One X does since they have different chipsets and screens). Thankfully that glossy battery cover of the SIII can be changed. It's my biggest issue with this phone. If physical usability in the hand of one is much better than the other it will be the trump imo. I think I will return my One X and wait till the SIII releases. Maybe I'll end up getting another One X, but considering how different these two phones are and considering I'm in this for two years (contract) I want to be sure I'm getting the right one.
How funny they've made a magnetic cover for it like what the iPad 2 has.
That blue colour just looks better and better the more I see it. So glad my pre order of the white version cancelled itself lol

Thanks OP for the video....I suggest you mention users to mute the video while watching...
Is it me or does that back cover look so much better than any other photo taken from the unpacked event? I mean the back cover and the finish actually looks really nice in the video when he took the phone out of the box
Oddly enough few "hands-on" posts suggests that the phone actually feels nice in hand
This is better than porn! I can't wait to get this phone
I think this video answers most of the discussions here.

If you can't tell by his long rant on the location of the keys, he is a well known samsung hate/iphone fanboy. You can literally tell whether the article was written by him based on the first paragraph.
However, i'm quite surprised that he actually liked the device

Yep, he sound super annoying though and I'm not referring to his accent but the tone of his voice, I can't watch 26 min of him so I usually skip to the parts that I'm interested about like browser, screen, battery life. But I think overall he always gives an honest opinion.
the device dosent shows any sign of pebble blue in the whole video and no symptoms of brushed finish too!! nice...

Can't say I'm disappointed that it is plastic and not metal. He seemed to drone on about the plastic design. Sure plastic shells can scratch easily, but they stand up better over time than metal ones. I've had several devices metal and plastic, and metal always interferes with signal quality and when it bends, it doesn't bend back into place like plastic does. My TF201 looks terrible with all of its dents and scratches but my Evo 3D with its plastic back and only a little bit of metal around the edge is looking decent (except for the metal which is scratched and nicked.)
What is everyone's deal about plastic? A ceramic coating would have been interesting, but we have already seen the coating chipping off on one model of the HTC One series phones.
EDIT: Ok, so I see I wasn't the only person that found the way he complained about the keys and other nitpicking to be a bit biased and annoying.
It's good to be ambidex ^_^

If you want to be really annoyed, watch their HOX vs iphone test.

I agree,
He sounds very condescending at times, lots of "obviously" and "of course". And his tone is terrible. Surely they can find someone with more ability than this dude?

stay away from ceramic coating!!! good thing Samsung didnt go there.
I sent my 3d htc one s back for a refund and preordered the SGS3 for that reason alone!!
By the way, flimsy plastic? So what? You scratch it and buy a new one, the phone looks like new.
try to do that with an alloy-ceramic phone.... No chance!
Well,PhoneArena's reviews are really good,as long as you don't watch the videos.
Although...iPhone smooth?Nowadays the iPhone is Android smooth.With ICS my Desire HD is smoother than the iPhone 4 of a friend and rivals the 4S.My S2 rapes them both.

I'd have loved it to be HTC Sensation-style,where you can replace the whole housing apart from the screen in the form of a battery cover.That way you just don't give a rat's ass about scratches etc.
Very annoying. Love the phone. Plastic back is better for radio signal. Drop a plastic backed phone and you will get back a scratched but still very much working phone not like a glass backed device. Very easy to tell an I-Phone fan boy. Could not watch or listen to entire video due to the annoying Fan Boy.

Well,they are a really good site in fact.They may not have all the stuff Anandtech does,nor do they publish everything new instantly like SlashGear,Engagdet etc,but they do it all and do it well(Does that sound somehow...? ).I prefer them for my everyday mobile tech news reading.
