Cell phones have changed the world as we know it since the 90's. It was an amazing invention that allowed the world to stay connected without a wire. They first came out and they looked like bricks (incase you don't know what I'm talking about watch the first Wallstreet movie) and were huge things that only women could carry because they had purses.
As technology moved forward the cell phone became smaller and smaller. This was great! You could fit it in your pocket! The only problem was that it was easier to lose. However, now technology is reversing, and trying to get bigger, with .... the Phablet!
The Phablet is exactly what it sounds like, its is a phone tablet. So basically it is a huge phone that we can't fit in our pockets, which means we either have to carry around purses, or have that holster for it on our belt. (neither of which are better options than our pockets)
There is the HTC One Max, which has a 5.9 inch display. The Samsung Galaxy Mega, that has a 6.3 inch display, and the Sony Xperia Z, which has a 6.4 inch display. So you have a frame of reference the Nexus 7 tablet is only .6 inches bigger than these phones while the Ipad Mini has a 7.9 inch display.
To give you an even better frame of reference, the Iphone 4s has a 3.9 inch display. This is as big as phones should be, maybe a little bigger to maybe a 4.5 inch display, but nothing more. We are reversing in the technological timeline and it doesn't make sense! Cell phones are supposed to be small and manueverable. Not big and inconcealable.
If you have any oppinion of the Phablet, please comment below. Us here at The Dusty Wahl, love to hear what you got to say.

If it can't fit in your pocket, why buy it?
