It really isn't.

The iPhone 5 is 123.8mm x 58.6mm x 7.6mm
The Samsung Galaxy S3 is 136.6x70.6x8.6mm
The Sony Xperia Z is 139mm x 71mm x 7.9mm
The HTC One X+ is 134.4 x 69.9 x 8.9 mm
The Google Nexus 4 is 133.9mm x 68.7mm x 9.1mm

I don't what to carry the Rosetta Stone in my pocket, but idealy I do not really want an iPhone either. Third world problems <disgrace>.
I've got the Xperia T and it doesn't really seem ridiculous in size.

Get a tailor to make all your pockets bigger.

Problem solved.

Stop wearing your sisters trousers and you might have pockets that are a decent size <roll>

Failing that, have you considered purchasing a man bag?

I like how you're so insecure about the fact that you dress like a woman means you have to make fun of somebody else. Even if I did have a satchel, it'd be full of power tools and beer, not like yours which is full of tampons and make up.

Get jeans with pockets that can actually fit things in. Also looking back, you're comparing a phone with a 4" screen (iPhone 5) to phones with a 4.7" to 5.0" screen, of course the latter are going to be bigger. If you look at 4" screen phones, like the Galaxy S3 Mini, you get a similar size to the iPhone 5, or shorter in that case (121.55mm length).

But they are not as good <cry>.
