My friend has a large Nexus. It has poor battery life, and the screen is easily susceptible to damage because it's so big. He got a huge crack in it after a week.
Unlike the iPhone, which has been crack resistant.

I can see the iPhone (5) being exactly as the 4 and 4s are in terms of design and in a strange way, demonstrating tremendous corporate confidence in their product by doing so.
As if to say "We have the most ideal design, there is no reason to change."
While people will be disappointed, they will still make billions and billions in profit. So who can really win that fight?

Why re-design the dock connector? One thing I like about Apple products is their consistency. How I can use the same dock/charger for my old iPod Classic and new iPhone. Making a smaller dock connector will ruin this.
I don't mind if the dock connector is smaller or not, I'd rather they focus on implementing a new Thunderbolt connector for the iPhone (and all iDevices in the future). They need to push on it a bit more, and what better way than with their own products? Make it the standard.
Seriously Apple, its 2012, will be nearly 2013 once the new iPhone is release. Its really ridiculous to have a 3.5" or 3.7" screen now a days. I am still going to buy it, but damn, that irks me. Has Johnny been thinking these last couple years?
Why does Apple want me to buy another companies phone instead of their's?
I see the current iPhone like the Porsche 911, the design will be tweaked but remain the same, Why change when its perfect.
you want a bigger screen buy a tablet, Its the iPhone not the iPda, its primary task is telephone calls, the current form it the perfect balance between usability's and portability, once you go to the super sized its no longer portable.
Its built for the masses who want a phone with the internet,email and apps, not tech geeks that want there laptop in there hand just to post of forums moaning about unreleased products.
By that logic, in the next decade, Apple will eventually change everything in the iPhone except the Dock Connector? Doubt it. At some point, Apple will change the Dock Connector. (ex. Look what they did to the Floppy, Legacy Ports, DVD). They aren't afraid to disrupt things.
No thanks, 3.5" is plenty for me. If I need bigger I'll use my gorgeous iPad. I rather have a smaller, lighter phone than a larger, bulkier, heavier, phone that drains battery more quickly than the smaller model. I'll upgrade for LTE if the screen stays the same size, I'm not so sure if they increase the screen and device size though.
I have seen an awful lot of cracked iPhone screens![]()

Well, that would obsolete a lot of very expensive docking devices like speaker systems which can run into the hundreds of dollars. I for one would not be happy, but I really do not see this happening. The Apple connector standard is now ubiquitous in the market from speakers to cars. I just don't see it happening. There is no benefit to Apple and it would slow adoption through upgrade.
