Rumor: Possible 5" iPhone next month

[nepalisherpa]

Digest this with a grain of salt but a rumor says that there will be a 5" iPhone in addition to 4.7" and 5.5" next month. Link to the article: http://www.phonearena.com/news/Rumo...s-a-5-inch-Apple-iPhone-is-on-the-way_id72802

If the rumor turns out to be true, it could be that 4.7" will be a cheaper phone, and, 5" and 5.5" will be the 6S and 6S+. Who knows!

That will be way too many SKUs for Apple. Unlike them me thinks.

Seems like a decent source

Completely ridiculous rumour to get web traffic.

 

[FrankySavvy]

anyone see the bees

 

[rockosmodurnlif]

0.3"? Really?

 

[mrat93]

I don't think it'll happen, but I'd probably get it if they did release a 5" phone. Not read to jump from 4.7" to 5.5" quite yet.

 

[bushido]

not gonna happen but i wouldnt mind it i am already used to the 4.7 and could go a bit bigger. the Plus is too big with its disgusting bezel

 

[hovscorpion12]

Typically every design leak since the iPhone 4 has been true, I will believe this. I do believe that the iPhone will eventually upgrade to 5" from 4.7. it is possible for this year, just not as probable. Having three screen size options defiantly gives the consumer choices of which model fits them.

All I see is a drawing of an iPhone 5s with "iPhone 6s" on the back. This rumor definitely seems sketchy

Totally agreed. But of course  is trying to replace iPods with iPhones. So though it may not make sense now, it might in a couple of years.  does have a tendency to do things that may seem odd but justified later on.

Wait what D:

The 4.7" will be the 6c and the 5" and 5.5" the 6s and 6s Plus
And ONLY the 6s Plus is getting the 12 MP camera while the 5" 6s retains the 8 MP one

No way Apple ... i mean it was ok to give the 6 Plus OIS but not the 6 ...but this is ridiculous ...

Was that sketchy photo taken right by a wasps' nest? WTF?

 

[phteven]

.3 inches is not nearly enough of a difference for this to make any sense at all.

Haha, I just noticed that. What's funnier is that I did not even add that picture to my post. I think one of the mods added it for me.

 

[ricktat]

Bees make it legit.

I wish this was true though.

 

[Flow39]

I highly doubt it. I doubt they'd change screen sizes, especially on a "S model" year. I think we'll see 4.7 and 5.5 inch screens for awhile.

 

[Cutiekitty92]

As much as I'd love this to be true I really don't think it will be

 

[willmtaylor]

Not even gonna go for the click bait, as I don't wanna give them the web traffic. Not happening.

Not even gonna go for the click sit, as I don't wanna give them the web traffic. Not happening.

Phone Arena is the king of clickbait. I didn't click either haha

I don't see Apple making a phone that is different design-wise from its 2 existing phones, especially if it is to sit between them in terms of size.

 

[The-Real-Deal82]

I'd buy it as long as it comes with the 2 wasps in the picture.

Bees.

 

[The-Real-Deal82]

Bees.

I withdraw my offer then.

 

[PortableLover]

Why??? 0.3 really. In fact 4 ,4.7 , 5.5 make more sense.
