If the rumors about two OLED iPhones (5.8 & 6.5 inch) and one LCD iPhone (6.1 inch) to be released in 2018 are -more or less- correct that means the smallest (new) iPhone available will measure 143.6 x 70.9 mm and weigh 174 grams.

How much longer can this evolution go on, of the iPhones getting bigger (length x width), lengthier (screens) (length-width ratio), and heavier?

I'm glad the screen-body ratio has improved. I'm not so glad about the "body-pocket size" or "body-hand size" ratio though.
I figured the screen covering more of the body would've made for an iPhone option that has a body size of a 3GS or 4S or 5S/SE with a screen size similar to the 6/7/8.

I love the 7 footprint hate the X footprint.

Apple does this thing called marketing and they do it better than anyone else on earth! They give us what we want most the time. I can not complain.
