Oh lord. People need to get a sence of humor and irony and not take everything so seriously. Seriously.
Sorry guys, no 5.5 iPhone, only 4.7, the 5.5 iDevice will be an iTouch successor aimed at gamers w/o phone functions.
Show any leak of an 5.5 device with cell phone antenna cuts... Where is?

This was what I thought at the beginning, but...If we look at the demand for 5.5" screen iPhone, it's crazy now. Apple won't make much money with 5.5" iTouch compared to 5.5" iPhone because 5.5" iTouch is too close to iPad Mini. 5.5" and 4.7" iPhones will f.cking kill all competitors...seriously. With ecosystem, screen size varieties, apps, secure, more iOS openness, supports and services. Apple will once again rule the mobile phone world...remember the day in 2007: "One Phone to Rule Them All"? Now it's again with iPhone 6: "Two Phones to rule them all".
The 5.5 inch market still marginal, only offering from Samsung (the note 3) and other don't account for 5% of Android devices, but gaming market is another thing, there you have plenty 5.5 inch devices as Sony Playstation vita, gaming market is one which previously Apple fells short, first iPod touch 6 have an too small screen, on the other hand, iPad and iPad mini are too big, I've gaming on both, and nothing it's better than gaming on am note 3 or an ps vita, not too small not too heavy, the ps vita since isn't a phone its much better due it's battery life it's 3x larger than the note 3.
But, WHERE ARE THE PARTS LEAKED that confirm the 5.5 iDevice it's an phone? I ve seen none yet.
Makes sense. The 5.5" should be called something like iPad Nano, and that's why production will start at the same time as iPad's production.
Don't mind a slight delay of a couple months for the 5.5 inch, but I hope they at least announce it in September so I know it's coming. I hate the thought of being stuck with the 4.7 inch.
How about.. saying something constructive? What exactly would you like to see instead of 4.7/5.5", and a home button (outdated? really?)
You're just pissing in the wind here..
I haven't seen a single report that claims that a 5.5" non-iPhone is coming. On the other hand, many reports exist that point to the rumored 5.5" device being an iPhone.
Maybe wait another month or so? There's still time. About a month and a half ago there weren't any claimed 5.5" parts at all (IIRC).
Reports, like this one, and other rumors.
Speculation is an accurate word to describe a 5.5" iPod touch successor though.
So, where is the evidence that support the 5.5 iDevice it's an phone?
To date leaked material points to an 4.7' iPhone (evidence the rf Windows) and an bigger 5.5" iDevice w/o rf Windows, do you have a single image leak in the 5.5 model having such rf Windows? Have it? NO.
Please, those self proclaimed analyst are like anyone here, all them just speculates on the 5.5 model, they bite Apple's bait, but missed one important thing : NO RF WINDOWS ON 5.5 MODEL, so no 5.5 iPhone, it's just an big iTouch aimed at younger consumers and launched just after Xmas...
So, Back your next argument on photographic evidence or just shut up, take advantage we are anonymous and no one reputation is on risk.
Some where Jonny Ive laughs...

No company launching a new product like a 5.5" iPhone/iPod would risk missing that pre Christmas shopping window.
Whatever this is that's coming after the launch of the 4.7" iPhone, it's not coming out just after Christmas.
I agree I also have a large phone GN3 and struggle to use it with one hand so use both.
I have an note 2, and for one thing is good: play games and watch movies.
I think there is no 5.5 iPhone, this it's just an bait, the 5.5 iDevice it's really an iTouch successor w/o phone functions.
And where are the parts leaked that confirm the 5,5 iDevice is not a phone? I have not seen one yet.

I see no 5,5 iphone there mate.
It looks like some people have trouble with letting others make their own choices.
This is phalacy, the proof charge it's on that no leaked part required by an phone proof that other 5.5 iDevice leaked part belongs to a phone and not to an iTouch.
Until this proof is devealed all other leaks may belong either to an iPhone or an iTouch until an phone specific part surfaces.
Everybody you call has an apple device and wants to video chat with you? How do you call your doctor to confirm an appointment?
Good thinking in theory. But the world does not revolve around OS X/iOS .. Yet.
The iPhone has enjoyed massive launch day sales on opening days for the last few years. I don't think they would want to take a step backwards and not release 2 new iPhones together and have separate launch day stats. They love that wow factor at the keynotes of having XXMillion iPhones sold opening weekend.
Buuut, what if you're a person who doesn't use their iPhones with one hand? What then?
They might actually recoup customers too. The fact that their display has been sub-par in terms of length leads to customers going to Windows or Android. I can see several people making the switch. I have a iPad R-Mini, but if the next iPhone 6 is good, my HTC One M8 will be "jumped" to the iPhone 6 through T-Mobile.
