So you think it'll be a touch screen MacBook?
Not sure if it will be a touch screen.
So you think it'll be a touch screen MacBook?
So since you don't want it nobody else can have it?
That's marketing BS. Like what if you find the experience lacking? Do you go somewhere else who's selling a better experience to you?

I doubt they will update the smaller size but I also can't see them having iPhones in multiple larger sizes. I predict Apple will continue to sell the 5S in it's current design / form and then a 4.7 - 5.4 inch phone as a new design. My preference is for the 4 inch iPhone but Apple's priority is making money.
Of course it's marketing BS. But it explains why things are a certain way. I'm not saying this is all great, but it helps in understanding why Apple doesn't do X and why product Y doesn't support Z.
Yes?
Wearables are going to be a $20 BILLION industry by 2018. No matter if you like it or not, it's going to happen. There are so many possibilities with wearables that will happen in the next few years to improve peoples lives, especially in the health sector.
No, it's not going to happen.
You know why? Because nobody takes fashion advice from tech people.
When Anna Wintour decides wearables are cool, then it'll happen. Until then, no.
It's amazing how clueless tech people are about the fashion world, or anything involving a sense of style. These people have NO idea how unattractive they are to non-geek losers.
I certainly understand that some people want a larger iPhone but I think the majority is probably fine with what we have right now. I don't know about you guys, but for my most common tasks: phone, messages, FaceTime, safari, mail, camera, maps, mass transit, online banking, etc... a 4" phone is enough.
Sure movies, photos, and websites would be better on a larger screen, but isn't the whole purpose of apps to reconfigure the information so as to enjoy them on a small screen? iPhone apps are designed for a 4 inch screen in mind. I think the people who so desperately want a 6"+ screen are people who use the browser as they would on a desktop/laptop. If you just use apps, there really isn't that big of an advantage, I think.
why not a 5" screen with 2560x1440 pixels resolution as it's expected with the Galaxy S5 ?

You obviously are not paying attention to the this market segment as a whole. Do you realize just how much is going to happen and change in the next 4 years with the health tech industry and wearables market? I do.
...at times. It isn't a blanket statement that covers everything they do for every reason they have. Like in our current screen size situation, the major reason why I believe we're not seeing a larger iPhone is because Apple relies mostly on bitmaps for their GUI, and would require developers to have a specific layout with a specific set of icons for every screen size, which would end up being too much work for everyone making iOS apps for multiple devices.
This is the one thing MS does better with Metro than Google does with Android, and Apple does with iOS. Metro uses vectors for everything, which means its near infinitely scalable to any screen size. While there's still some work involved getting the best user experience for every sized device, it doesn't require comparatively as much work to do it.
Apple might have vectors figured into the future, though. I think it might be the one major reason why they've gone flat, as simpler, bold colored icons are easier to design with vectors.

Which leads back to my original statement. If I like most things Apple does over the competition, but not everything, why can't I voice my opinion about the things I don't like?
We're like the new Ross and Rachel.
I'm still on MacRumors because I own 4 other Apple devices, you pleb.
I'm not trolling at all, grow up and stop giving ammunition to people that hate Apple Fanboys.
What I think will happen(this is just my personal opinion) is apple will go the moto x route. That phone is probably the best when it comes to ergonomics, its only slightly larger than the iPhone 5 and it has a screen thats .7" bigger I think they'll wanna keep it as thin and light as they can without increasing the overall size to much. I'm personally looking forward to the 5" or higher phone myself as long as they add some value to having the larger screen(i'm looking at you HTC), don't increase the size just to increase it

Hmmm, I guess I am only one of the few who prefer a smaller device.
why can't you leave the small alone? I don't want a size bump; it was already difficult to stomach the transition to 4".
