And why?

Thanks!
I would not buy 950.
Its bigger screen doesn't live up to the expectations.
It is taller than 6". If it were bigger than 6" by 1" proportionally, then it would clearly be the winner. However, it is as wide as 6". It means when you enlarge text size, you will get on 950 as much of text in one line as on 650. What is a point?
