Don’t mess with Omar!

When the original iPhone was release, 3.5" was one of the largest sized screens on the market. As an example, most Windows Mobile phones were running 2.8" screens.

There is no doubt that they go larger, probably up to 4" and not over that. The apps that count will have to do some recoding for the new aspect ratio but so be it.

It’s really not about screen size anyway, Apple knows they must have LTE and a larger battery in the next iPhone to remain competitive with Android devices, thus needing a larger case. The larger screen is just being used to fill up that space. This will happen, get ready for it in about four months because it’s coming and it’s about time.

It would be awesome to keep the same footprint but it can’t happen, not enough room for the new LTE chip and larger battery. Gotta have a new, larger case…..

While I wish this was possible you guys are forgetting that there has to be some extra room for the LTE Radio and a larger battery. The current case size is not going to cut it, they need more room so the footprint will have to change.

I have to admit the mock up above looks pretty good, I could live without an LTE radio and larger battery to support it if they would build that device.
