Both 4.7-Inch and 5.5-Inch iPhone 6 Models Reportedly Launching on September 19

[LizKat]

And another rumor claims the 5.5" device will be called iPhone+. Not sure I'm digging that name.

Yeah. But I might finally be past bothering to rent a lot of space in my head to the namers of Apple products. After all, "the iPad" never struck me as a stellar choice in the names department. But the product itself and its cousin the iPad mini were obvious WOW as products, and have remained grand slam home runs in my extended family.

I just give each new piece of gear a nickname like Shorty or BailoutPlan or whatever and let Apple bean counters worry if some monicker like "iPhone+" will sell better than "iPhone 6.5" or "iPhone Sunray". Bottom line I vote with my wallet as do all consumers, and the name of something has never made the cut in my dealbreaker criteria, no matter if the product is a computer, a coffeemaker or a car. Of course I assume this new iPhone+, if that's what it has really been named, will compute, make coffee and beam me up.

Is that proof of anything?
Where is the size reference point?

Look at the home button and sides for reference. They have managed to get parts for the 5.5. Feld and Volks track record is good.

You took their own homebrewed reasoning on phone size as the gospel. "The right size fits all" only exists now in your eccentric imagination where Jobs rides a gallant unicorn upon an Apple themed cloud to rescue us from a two iPhone size offering purgatory. It's all a grand delusion. There is no one perfect size for every single human. A larger iPhone is in no way a sign of the Apple apocalypse. Step away from your high alert status and rejoin the hive.

You can't admit that even though this will make lots of profits, that it's wrong for Apple to do. Fair enough. Not everyone can admit this.

You haven't even offered a valid reason why it is "wrong."

no chance the 5.5" launches the same time, even with limited quantities


there have been ZERO fully assembled and at this stage millions of iphone 6 should have already been fully assembled and ready to ship out to the world

Totally no chance at all. Even with all the "guarantees" out there it still couldn't hold up to what was just plain guesswork...quite incorrect guesswork at that.

5.5" quantities will be very limited so I was half right

The argument was not about quantities or anything else, just about the mere existence of it. You were completely wrong on that (despite supposed "guarantees" and all that), and that's pretty much as factual as it gets.

I said it would be limited and it is

Your post is quoted right there as it is, that it wouldn't launch at the same time even WITH limited quantities. You can't even pretend it was something else because it's right there in this thread.

And there's the gem at https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1771098/.

You were wrong. You kept on insisting on being wrong. Nothing is going to change that. That's pretty much all it comes down to.

What don't you get? I said it was going to be limited to the point it practically won't available, and that's exactly what happened

We all get that you were saying something different and now obviously trying to change it around. Not surprising.

No, actually this is what you said:

I guarantee the 5.5" iPhone doesn't launch with the 4.7"

LOL dude just keeps on crawfishing. He's wrong. He got called out and now that he's been proven wrong, he can't man up and admit it. It's going to be even better come September 19th and it's not in limited quantities either. But it won't matter to him. His guarantee is his word and he's never wrong.
