hey guys this is adam lane with polka dot com or take a look at some of the pros and cons with big screens on your smartphone's vs. really small screens and somewhere in between so let's check them out first off let's look at some of the history back in 2003 we had some pretty big smartphones I mean this is this is huge it's just thick this is a big big big and people hated that so eventually we started going towards really small screens and dinner devices and so that's that's where we started big and then here we have a really small device this is touch diamond and you can see how small it is in my hand and compared to other devices the advantage of this is it's so small it really fits nicely in your pocket so this you can barely feel it is there and having a small screen means i can touch every part of the screen really easily with my thumb so there's not a whole lot of movement i only have to move it like a little bit to to reach these different parts so that's one advantage for one-handed use it's a lot easier similar thing with the zune HD here another very small device has slightly larger screen and it's very thin very pocketable now this keyboard it's pretty small but I can reach each letter pretty easily not a whole lot of thumb travel but if you're bouncing around it's going to be a little bit hard to find the key that you want so that's a disadvantage to the small screen now let's look at this humongous one here's the infuse 4g with a four-and-a-half inch screen here's your size comparison now good things about this way okay as I was saying great thing about this large screen device is we can play movies on this and share with people and people can really see what's going on so everybody can see this you could share it really nicely same with pictures lots of area to view now a couple problems with this huge screen is it can be difficult to reach things now you think a larger screen makes the buttons bigger and that's true so these buttons are really easy to press but there's so much distance between these buns so if I want to reach buttons down here I'm going to scoot down I can reach those prints those but if I want to reach something in the notification trick I got to kind of scoot up like this see if I'm down here I can't really reach up there you gotta scoot scoot scoot now I can reach those and even if I want to close it I'm going to scoop back down so that's knowing if you're trying to use the device one-handed obviously other people can you know if you have both hands-free you can do whatever you want here with your other finger so that's option a lot of people probably will do that and nothing is a pixel density this one's coming down to 207 well this one's a 217 is a slight difference but you can with this size screen if you look close you can you can see some graininess in the pixels of course all that depends on the resolution as well so let's look at a couple others there's a smaller screen and this I can really easily reach every part no problems there that's pretty good size and with the diamond to now this has a 800 x 600 screen but it's smaller so we get a better pixel density less less noticeable pixels there and I can still reach everything pretty easily without having to scoop this one's pretty good to this is the galaxy s 4g I can reach that it takes a little bit of stretch this is kind of stretching the hand but you got a good bit of range so there's some differences small screens versus large screens if you're normally a two-handed user probably the large screen is going to be totally fine but if you're more of a one-handed user or if you have if you wear tight pants sometimes a smaller device is going to be better this one is really going to be noticeable in your pants in your pocket you might need special pants for this one so those are our pros and cons of large screen devices versus small screen devices hope you enjoyed this video let us know which one you prefer which range of size and that's it for now you hmm
