Cellphones used to be big and heavy. Then, they started getting smaller, thinner and light. Now, they’re starting to be bigger again. The Galaxy Note 2 is a good example of a big phone. At 5.5 inches, we bet half the population will have a hard time holding it with one hand.

The HTC Sense UI is, by far, one of the best looking skin in the Android platform especially when it’s paired with an equally good-looking One X. If anything, the only thing it needs improvement on is its performance and that’s just what the new iteration allegedly brings to the table.
There’s a lot of 7-inch Android tablets from multiple manufacturers currently out in the market, making the 7-inch category a highly competitive one.
