When Did Small Phones Become Crappy Phones?

Sam Biddle, Gizmodo:

There was a time when you could buy something that was compact, fast, and beautiful. That time is over. “Smaller” is just a polite way to say “here’s the bad version for cheap people.” And that’s really awful.

Couldn’t agree more. I really liked last year’s Lumia 800, but ever since, Nokia has only put high-end specs into big-ass phones. The iPhone 5 is the smallest high-end phone on the market. There’s an opportunity here.
