I’m an Android guy all the way, but I’m actually really looking forward to HTC’s Windows 8 phones – probably going to be my next gadget

The numbers speaks for themselves. Steve Jobs was wrong about screen size. You can’t argue against the market and say markets it’s wrong. Just ask Nokia or RIM.

Some valid points in there. But the author has clearly mentioned the issues with bigger screen. He says “Not that he was wrong, but the market has responded differently.”
Moreover, no one can discount the market share of phones. If more and more people are buying some phones, it actually means they are liking what they are getting.
And there are lot of repeat customers for Galaxy range of smartphones. And phones like SGS3 or HTC One X are not “cheap” by any standards.

Its not about “liking” larger screens. I will again say large screens are very inconvenient to handle. Ask any galaxy note user. The trend you see is simply due to number games.
People who buy these smartphones do it mostly for showing off. And what better than larger numbers for that? Who needs a quad core in a mobile phone? I mean, really!? It is a wastage.
Android is still a very buggy OS. Its battery draining, non user friendly at times, looks are also not easy on the eyes.
“But the rise of Android and Samsung has changed the definition of what a good smartphone is”
Definitions of good don’t change with the market shares. You need to look at a lot more factors than that. How long do the people actually stay with their same samsung? How much time does it take before their samsungs start to misbehave? What is the reselling price of these samsung devices?
When something comes cheap, you should know why it is so. The world already has a lot of e-waste, we don’t want more of cheap unreliable electronics.
