Considering the Xperia ZU that is launched by Sony a few days ago; there is a clear indication from the Android OEMs that they are eying to push the boundaries for screen sizes further. While they are still away from meeting the 9.5 inch screen of the iPad, things do not really feel
small in a 6.4 inch screen as well. Infact a few users might also opine that the ZU balances perfectly between mobile comfort and screen size packaging the fastest performance underneath its hood. Yes it’s the
