Who else think that current Iphones are TOO big to wield?

I tend to keep my cell phones in my front pocket. It's not only more safe & secure but also more convenient. Thanks to this 'phablet craze', I can't seem to slip most phones in my front pocket. Hence the rise of Smartwatch, as phones are too bulky to slip-out from the hip pocket.
What happened to smartphones with 3.0"-3.5" screens?
Now, if you need the latest Iphone 6, the smallest one comes in just shy of 5 Inches… WTF? What were they thinking?
Better battery life, you say? Isn't it more easier, cheaper and more power efficient to just simply made a small screen phone THICK so it can house a bigger battery? Like a 3.5" phone with a 2,500-3,000mAh battery?
Am I the ONLY ONE here?

Nothing wrong with a 5" screen. It fits into my shirt pocket just fine and it's comfortable to hold.

I wouldn't want to go much bigger than that though.

I have a 4.5" screen phone and I'm good with that size too. I think my optimum would be somewhere between 4.5 and 5".

They do make smart phones of the size you mention. These are often low end phones sold with prepaid plans.
