I switched from the HTC One X to iPhone 5 and have no regrets, glad I did. I really liked the HTC Android phones, One X was my 3rd HTC and HTC Sense overlay made it great. iPhone just works better as a phone and the apps are better. The size does fit better for use as a phone, especially you have other devices that you use to browse the internet and do other tasks that mean you really just need a smart phone and not a phone the size of a tablet. If you use other apple products, then it makes even more sense. Seidio makes a very thin case that does not add much to the phone. Best Buy also sells a version of this under a generic name, has a Pt marking on case/clip.
