That he thinks slightly larger is potentially a good thing doesn't make it an inconsistent belief that hugely larger is not a good thing.


It's pretty inconsistent when 4 inches is "slightly larger" for Apple but 4 inches is "hugely larger" for anyone else.


Except the the difference is 0.5 inches between 4S and 5, vs 1.3" difference between 4S and S3.


Curtis didn't say that manufacturers with 4.8+ inch screens were wrong. He said manufacturers with 4+ inch screens were wrong. i.e. Apple today

Also the phone screen he was comparing against (S II) was only 0.8 inches larger, at 4.3 inches.
