I dunno, somewhere down the line years ago, I must've read that when it comes to ukuleles, sopranos is the size. So for this, I've only paid attention to sopranos. I own a sopranino but it is not inspiring, and own a Fluke (triangle-shaped) which I think is a tenor size and requires me to stretch for certain things.
I met a guy once who was 6'2" that said that sopranos have him playing in an awkward position so he sticks to tenors. So is size mostly an issue of your physique? (I'm 5'5" on a good day.)
Just the sheer volume difference between a soprano and tenor must (all other factors being the same) have a difference in tone and response.
The compactness and portability of a soprano scream ukulele to me. Really, if I'm going to play anything bigger like a tenor or a baritone, I figured I might as well play the guitar.
