It's not huge but small differences really matter on a handheld device. My current phone has a 5.1" screen and my previous phone had a 5" screen. They have similar sized bezels. That makes my current one stick a little farther out of my shirt pocket and I have to be more careful with it. It doesn't matter holding it. I think they're the same width, although the square sides of my older phone were more comfortable.

By the way, the square sides on my Kobo Aura original are one of the nicest things about it.

I'm going to have to have a talk with Moses about adding another commandment about the size of devices. I doubt anything else will help. Any phrasing suggestions will be appreciated.
