Stylus will not happen. Didn't happen with the iPad, won't happen with a bigger iPhone.

If your worried about battery life, a bigger iPhone will result in a bigger battery.

If the go with a 4.3" or 4.7" size screen it will still be portable and can easily fit into the pocket.
 
I think y'all must have small hands.

If Apple keeps the same size screen on the 6, I'll keep my 5 until it dies or they do increase the size.


So I suppose they'll need two devices in the end. Because if they make the next models EVEN BIGGER than the 5 then I'll switch to something else. It's too big, too thin and too light as it is.

How about adding the phone app and full phone functionality to the iPad mini for those who want a big screen and a big device?
 
Really I could get by with either, but a bigger iPhone does sound appealing to me, but I don't understand why OP, and other people have to get so bent out of shape about Apple maybe making the iPhone bigger. If you don't like the current offering of phones Apple has. Then keep what you have, and don't buy the new one. Very simple.

Is it very simple ? Let's say the small and thin female population keep the current generation of iphone. What should they do in 5 or 7 years after the phones became obsolete ? (better make that 2 years tops)
Should they just magically grow bigger manly hands ? Or get bigger pockets ?

Do you think these two should have the same phone size ? I wonder if they have the same hand size or the same pocket size

It seems Samsung, and almost every android manufacture on the market are not having an issue. It seems if a big phone is all the company offers customers buy it anyway.

Some people did not like the iPhone 5's increase. Now you hear almost no one talking about it. You either get use to it, or you don't buy another phone from the company.

I have large hands, and would prefer a larger screen than my iPhone 5s. Apple at this point does not offer a larger phone, so I have had to adjust. The same may be true for you in this coming year. If you would like to keep using an iPhone there may be some compromises you will have to make. We have all had to at some point in the iPhone life cycle.
