Many of my students have the Samsung Note3. They use them as phablets, and while I initially questioned phones of that size I am beginning to see their worth. But, they are not convenient to carry around. I have an LG which my daughter gave me. It has a large screen and is a pain to pocket. So I am wondering about a larger sized iPod .... I think the watch size might be the way to go.

Read our wiki article on
screen sizes to see exactly how all the screen sizes compare. Note in particular the area in the chart. It can compare screens of different ratios to see the real size of data on the screen.
The Apple watch is not a standalone device. It is a remote display, entry device for an iPhone. Note that Apple is dropping the i designation at the beginning. They are tired of having someone copyright every possible word with an i in the front and having to pay for new names.
Back to the Apple watch. It cannot work by itself, it is tethered to another device and everything you see on the watch came from the larger device. Thus it won't be able to display the output from all apps but only those that are designed to specifically display on the device.
