This 5.5 will outsell 4.7.


Cant wait how media make the stories after release. Like 4.7 or 5.5 is a flop coz it didnt outsold the other size.

If Apple doesn't launch both models at the same time, they'll just have to deal with returns from those who couldn't control themselves and wait, bought the smaller size but then decided to go bigger.
 
This sums up the majority of the most vocal people on this forum.

All we need is one more frame in the upper line saying that if Samsumg does those things it means Android sucks, too. Then that will represent everyone in this forum.
 
woop woop all aboard the 5.5" iPhone! I was expecting a release next year, but I am very hopeful to be proven wrong! Hope I can get one on launch day.
 
I love how these sites are able to cover their you know whats by claiming something may be delayed due to manufacturing issues. :rolleyes:

We'll never know because Apple will never say.
 
I was going to look at the new iPad mini whenever it came out, but a 5.5 iPhone could suffice.
 
they will, they won't,
they will, they won't,
they will, they won't,
they will, they won't,
they will, they won't,
they will, they won't,


i guess there will be a lot more of these stories until we get close enough for the Google Earth Satellites to let us all know.
 
Wow this is the first time I will have to think about which iPhone to get. I always just get the iPhone black with 32GB. Now I need to decide if I want to go big or go really big

Unless they release it a full month or more later... then early adopters will be stuck with the 4.7... The more I think about it the more I think 5.5 might be too big to be pocketable... Though the though of having a huge screen with me at all times is very enticing... I wonder if it'll be lighter or about the same wait as the 5S? Heavier would be a deal breaking I think... I use my phone as my "fitbit" and have it on me when I walk and run.
 
I hope they do not charge a premium for the larger models. Its expensive enough to get an unlocked 64gb model.

I'll be going for the 4.7" model, just because 5.5" is way too big for my taste.

Do we know if the only difference between the two models will be screen size?
