Phablet: Yes.
Oh man. The Phablet. There’s nothing cooler than the word. Well, there’s nothing cooler than the word, except for maybe the actual thing. Because the word really doesn’t do the thing justice. The phablet proves once and for all that size does matter. If you thought that the end goal of cell phone technology was to end up with a Zoolander sized phone, you might as well call yourself Miss Cleo. Clearly, you couldn’t see the future past your fake Jamaican accent.

Zoolander phone: No
Phabwhat?
So what does phablet mean? It’s one of those awesome smoosh together words, like Brangelina or… I can’t think of another one. But this one is a combination of “phone” and “tablet”. It’s got a screen that’s large and in charge. It has an Android operating system with attitude. It does everything well, and it knows it. This phone does not have self esteem issues. It’s phabulous and it knows it.
Size
I realize that some of the reviews out there say that this thing looks weird when you use it as a phone. Perhaps it’s the fact that I’m a 6 foot tall woman that makes it not so weird for me. It’s as proportionate to my hand/face as my friend’s iPhone was to hers. So if you’re tiny, this might not be something you’re comfortable with. It did seem giant at first, but I got used to it’s size in less than a week. Now when I use it, I think about how nice it is that it’s so much bigger. It’s easier to read. Websites look great on it. Texting on the giant screen is a dream. And since it also doubles as a kindle, reading on it is fantastic. These are all things that weren’t so true about my ole iPhone.
These are all things that weren’t so true about my ole iPhone. That thing just got me instant access to a cult. Drinking the Kool Aid? I’m pretty sure there’s an app for that.
I realize that this isn’t as ridiculous as the posts usually are on here. I figured I’d put something that you can use on this blog today. I’m writing it down as community service on the sheet I’ll be giving my parole officer today. Don’t say I never did anything nice for you.
