Sony’s Xperia Z Ultra Phone Is… Nah, That’s Not a Phone

And here we face a conundrum. On the one hand, Sony’s Xperia Z Ultra has salivation-worthy guts. On the other hand, the screen on this thing is 6.4 freaking inches!

Samsung Galaxy Note: Truly, Freakishly Large

For a while Samsung couldn’t decide whether to call its Galaxy Note tablet or a phone. Considering that its 5.3-inch screen splits the difference between an iPhone and a Galaxy Tab 7, that’s not surprising. But why get caught up on labels?
