Apple is said to launch a brand new iPhone with a much larger display sometime this fall. Reports reveal, from a number of sources, that the iPhone 6 will come in two models -- a 4.7" (1334x750) and a 5.5" (1920x1080) (The 5.5" is said to be delayed due to production problems). Besides the norm that we expect with each ensuing iPhone such as: a faster chip, better camera, and exclusive applications reports indicate that there will be design changes that come along with a larger display. For example, the power button will be moved from the top of the device to the right hand side to avoid an awkward reach you will have to do with a larger display.
To give you an idea the iPhone 5, 5C, and 5S all have a 4" display and if you're still rocking an iPhone 4 or 4S you are looking at a 3.5" display. Rumors and images have been leaking out but you tend to see similar features in each of them.
So what do I think? The upcoming iPhone will definitely have a larger display. Now I'm not saying this because Bloomberg first mentioned this almost a year ago but because Apple has been slacking in the mobile space. They haven't really changed anything, and if you're not willing to make a drastic change, then what you end up with are incremental changes. Apple finally recognized this and made a smart decision to get back into the game.
In addition, Lewis Hilsenteger from the YouTube channel Unbox Therapy, recently got his hands on a leaked iPhone 6 case. In this video he compares it to popular devices such as the iPhone 5S, Nexus 5, and Samsung Note 3.
So what do you think? Bigger iPhone = better? Let me know and as always, the quickest way to get in touch with me is by Twitter.
