Well, if size is not too important and you want a very good phone, you might want to consider Note 3. If size is a concern why get the Galaxy S3 as it's cheaper than its bigger brother? Both phones are very adequate, it's just a matter of choice...

Thanks for the suggestion! I presently have the Note 8" tablet and like it alot, I was thinking more along the lines of the new HTC 1 max ...I dont mind the large size my only concern is that it uses the snapdragon 600 mghrtz processor and not the 800. I also like that the speakers are on the front of the phone not the bottom or the back!
