Rumor: 5.5 inches? Forget it; Apple will have a 5.8-inch iPhone in 2017

A 5.5-inch iPhone 7 Plus not big enough for you? No problem-o. The 2017 Apple smartphones will have at least one model with a 5.8-inch screen, according to a DigiTimes report

The article — quoting unnamed sources — says Apple will launch 4.7-, 5.5- and 5.8-inch new iPhone models in the second half of next year with TFT-LCD panels to be used in the former two models and AMOLED for the 5.8-inch one. Global shipments of the AMOLED iPhone in 2017 are estimated at 60-70 million units, according to DigiTimes.

Personally, I’m holding out for the 12.9-inch iPhone Pro!
