That's nonsense. How many time have people screamed FAKE! when it turned out to be true? Just as many I'd say.

iPhone 5 revealed

I have an atrix myself and I really like the size of both the phone and screen, though I still prefer the size of the iphone 4, I like the extra realistate on the atrix. One thing though that may be a problem on the iphone, the aspect ratio. The screen on the atrix looks like its wide screen and I'm not sure if apple would go that rout and have to either add black bars on apps or have developers re-develope those apps for the taller screen.
Change is bad, I think they should always stay the same.
They should be 3.5 inch, with 320X 480 and 250mgs of ram.
No wait, they should have never invented it, because that was a change.
The iphone was just perfect before it came out.
But then they started changing things every year.
It fit much better in my pocket when it didnt exist.

Sorry, 4.3. I always just said 4" screen size when anyone asked. 3.7" might not be bad, but making the phone size larger to accompany a larger screen is just too big.
A good cell phone touch screen size reference is the largest available screen size in which the majority of people can reach all four corners of the screen with their thumb with one hand.
That is the ideal screen size IMO.
That's the thing, his posts dont have much logic.
He hates Apple and the iphone yet posts here on the regural
Who knows why he cares what other people might like, his opinion is always right....
He has an iP4 though
I'm fine with the increase in size if any. I'm sure there are other updates to it. I more excited about iOS5.
Not sure if it's real, like was posted earlier, it looks like the screen is paper. But I do like the looks of it.
Yeah... the Atrix is 16:9.
If Apple were to go to a 4" display, they will have to tweak the casing a tad if they want to maintain the current aspect ratio of the iPhone
If Apple doesn't increase the display size for the next iPhone model they will fall ever further behind than they are compared to other devices. 4 inches and up is now the industry standard and thats the bottom line, weather you want to admit it or not.
Apple is now in a followers role, they did good with upgrading to a dual core processor just like the competition. A larger display will follow but what size will it be?
other things Apple will follow (I guess better late than never)
NFC
Cloud based music
Actual Notification system
Real Multi-tasking

I'm going on record and claiming that the screen is the same size...they're making the case smaller...so there...
Guys, I have it on good word from Steve Jobs himself that he's going to release the iPhone 5 with a 3.7 inch screen, then go to a 3.8 inch screen for the iPhone 6, 3.9 inches for the iPhone 7, and finally the 4 incher for the iPhone 8. That way, Jobs said that he would make 3 times as much profit from the sheep. Genius!
NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If the iphone 5 screen is larger than 1.5 inch Im not buying it. These huge 3.5 inch screens are way to big. I can barely fit it in my pocket now.
Back before, when it was just an idea, it fit in my pocket perfectly, and I could even cary it when I didnt have pockets.

This is the important part - None of these Android phones have a 3:2 ratio for the screen like Apple does. If you take one of the phones that has 3.7" (like an HTC) the screen will actually be narrower than the iPhone's 3.5" screen.
The iPhone moving up to a 3.7" screen (if it happens) will actually be wider (and shorter) than the 4" screens used on android phones.
Exactly.
Also, maybe Apple can integrate their notification system along with their revamped iOS 5, using the extra space. I think the ideal size is 3.7" to 4" for a phone, and since 4" might be too much for the current aspect ratio (which i highly doubt Apple will change), then 3.7" seems perfectly fine! Since the form factor will be the same.
I'm really hoping for a larger screen in the next iPhone, i'm so tired of my iPhone 3G.
The pics here correspond to the design leak, here's hoping my wish comes true!
4 inch screen works for me. I had the droid X, but the resolution was so poor, it didn't help. Now if Apple can keep retina just as sharp on a 4 inch screen, then that would be ideal. Going from 3.5 to 3.7 is meaningless. I think i will wait until the 4g model comes out.
You should listen to yourself. This is a forum right? It's where we come to discuss about what we want to see in the coming upgrade? When did we ever say that this is our biggest worry in life? Don't generalize, and get yourself a grip.
Clearly you don't care, so don't troll.
re
if there is to be the "iPhone 4S" with 3.7 screen, do u think it's possible to replace the 3.5 screen on iPhone 4 with the newer 3.7 ?

i believe if the screen is 3.7 inches then the display will still be above the magic 300dpi, i saw someone post this somewhere but cant find it.
*hoping* this is announced in June. I think we will start to see more leaks now this has surfaced (unless its fake).
