I currently own a 32GB iPhone 5s, a 64GB iPad Mini Retina with LTE, and use a 15" rMBP daily. I go to work in the morning with my phone in my pocket and my iPad and MBP in my backpack. My phone is with me 100% of the time for pictures, social networking, task management, music, email and phone calls on the go. I am on my MBP all day at work and a good bit at night when I work from home. My iPad mini fits somewhere between. I mainly use it for games, reading, casual internet surfing, some photo editing, watching YouTube, etc. It fits that happy in between of my phone and laptop, especially when I am in a place at work that my phone is just too small and my laptop is too big. My iPhone and iPad are even configured differently because of what I use them for.
Assuming that the rumors are true and we get larger iPhones this year, 4.7" and 5.5", which will you go with and will it affect your iPad purchase or even a laptop purchase? Will it affect how and what you carry with you?
Because I used to have a second phone which was a Galaxy Note 2, I have been dying for iOS on a phablet so I'm pretty sure I will be getting whatever 5.x" device we get, assuming it comes to pass. My MPB is what it is and will not change any time soon. It works it's *** off daily and will continue to do so. The future of my iPad is questionable. When the new iPads rolled in November I originally bought a 64GB iPad 4 with LTE from a friend. I had an aging iPad 3 with too little storage and no LTE. At first I was happy but then starting playing with a friend's retina mini and had to switch. I sometimes long for that bigger display but the mini is so much easier to carry. With a 64GB "iPhablet" in hand, I honestly am considering going back to a full size iPad and would probably consider downgrading it in storage capacity and dropping LTE because I don't see myself carrying it with me that much. It will probably still be in my backpack everyday but just not in hand as much. I will probably game more and do a lot of those other "iPad things" more on my phone.
Just curious if anyone else has given this any thought and what you are planning based on rumors.
