In the latest series of speculation surrounding the next wave of iOS
devices, Apple suppliers say the company has been testing larger screens
for both the iPad and iPhone.
Apple has reportedly asked the suppliers to make prototype iPhones
with five-inch screens, an entire inch larger than the iPhone's current
four-inch screen. Apple may be testing this version of iPhone due to the
popularity larger phones from rival companies have experienced, like
Samsung's Galaxy line. The suppliers said they were also asked to create
a 13-inch iPad—more than three inches larger than the current iPad's
9.7-inch screen. Like most rumors by way of Apple's suppliers, if Apple
really is testing these larger versions of their devices, it doesn't
mean they will actually see the light of day. The keyword in all of this
is testing. But, it is possible. Apple has to adapt to a
market where Samsung offers various screen sizes, and is becoming
considerable threat.
What do you think: Is bigger always better?
