Larger screen = gimmick? I like my 4 and I like my wifes 4s, but absolutely love my SGII. Its much faster than both of our IPhones and the gimmicky screen can be seen from space. The battery is a bit better in the IPhones, but not so great that it is eye opening. For me, the SGII is superior.
A larger screen would be ok but when it's pushing 5" on a phone it's pretty gimmicky. A 4" screen should be plenty big enough.
Its not gimmicky, no more than siri. Just because its outside of your preference and it fuels your iPhone crusade, doesn't make it any less ignorant. That's like saying wifi capability is gimmicky.
if some on you could just grasp the idea that both droid and apple have there pros and cons then all of gods children would be happy... there are somethings that droid does better and somethings that iPhone does better....point.blank.period.
