I feel the same, the NEX screen is much smaller due to the wide aspect ratio and they add black bars on the side so it feels even smaller.  It is okay on the EVF models, but the same screen is on all the models making the normal models on the small side for the display.

Based on the Galaxy 4S, I think Samsung likes large displays
