1st example, try using an iphone 5 as a "kindle" then try the same on a note 3.

Buy an Iphone, likely you will buy an ipad/tablet.

Buy a Phablet and you don't need one.

Buy a phablet made of the same as an iphone and it will weigh a ton. When you go large you need to save weight, and that is where the polycarbonates and titanium come in so it will have a less premium feel, and frankly it is cheaper. You don't pay extra on a iphone for the tech, you pay for the name and the materials in the case.

There are many things you can do on an android device without jailbreaking as well, the iphone wont even run XBMC without jailbreaking.

So I stand by my point with valid real world examples, no infraction neccessary. You should be infracted for the personal attack!

Why did I compare to a mini, because I was answering the previous poster as clearly indicated by the quote.

I don't want to use my Phone as a Kindle, I'll use a Kindle or an iPad.

Oh no, no XBMC! What benefit does that have to me, I have iTunes, an Apple TV and a 100% legal media library.

I'm not seeing a £700 iPhone 5, in fact they don't sell them anymore. Closest is the iPhone 5c here http://store.apple.com/uk/buy-iphone/iphone5c

Which is £100 more expensive than your Mini and twice as useful.

£469 vs £256, yup, £100 difference. The 5s is the current "iphone" the 5c being a budget special.

Stop being deliberately obtuse! And you made my point very well, buy many rather than 1.

EDIT. The price on that Amazon link keeps changing....
