I agree with you. I like small phones too. I gave my last big phone to my daughter. I like the small iphone because I can always carry a tablet if I want that. The phones, even the phablet size, aren't big enough, and they are too big to be really convenient.

I like the iOS imessage app and what it does...it is so helpful that when I get texts from non-iphone users I miss them appearing on my devices...

I'm about to do some overseas travel and wondering if anyone has experience using Continuity with a Verizon or other US provider and receiving/sending SMS messages via iMessage using their phone number. I'd like to be reachable via my U.S. mobile number, but would also like to put a foreign SIM in my iPhone.

The Verizon Messages+ app on iOS works in my phone when I have a T-Mobile US Sim in my phone. Should be able to turn on "wifi" calling using that.
