Apple may be planning to release a new 4 inch iPhone, if reports on MacoTakara are accurate. They claim that Sony and Hitachi have already begun preparing 4 inch LCD screens for a new iOS device which will be released early next year.
“According to Asian source, Hitachi Displays, Ltd. and Sony Mobile Display Corporation started to ship 4-inch LCD for new iOS device and LCD for iPad 3. These 2 companies will be merged their business with Toshiba Mobile Display Co., Ltd., as “Japan Display” in 2012 spring.”
There are no details on which device Apple may plan to release however it is too small for an iPad, so a larger 4 inch screen for the next generation iPhone would make more sense. Regular readers will remember that Kitguru already suggested that Apple would be planning a larger screen, although it has never been confirmed by official sources. Many people claim that 4 inch is too big, and that 3.5 inch is perfect for a phone. The Dell Streak used a 5 inch screen and it bombed, even though we really liked it when it was reviewed here earlier this year.
Kitguru says: a 4inch screen on an upcoming iPhone. good or not?
I hope not, 4 inch is too big. 3.5 is perfect.
The iPhone4 is the first smartphone I ever owned so I’m just going with what I know. This review is not regarding AT&T (service sucks), but I’m not reviewing AT&T.
I love the iPhone4 because of all the apps you can get to organize your life and it’s camera. Who knew that your life can be organized in the palm of your hands? I’ve been able to sell and buy off the eBay app. Purchase from Living Social, Groupon and Amazon. Price compare with RedLaser. Go on the internet to check email/search. I no longer have to carry my wallet/keys full of membership cards because I have an app that scanned all those numbers. I cannot live without my iPhone. The iPhone4 has now replaced my GPS, my calender book, my iPod, and point and shoot camera. My purse is now so much lighter.
Camera quality is superb during the day. Use at night isn’t so great. Gave 4 stars instead of 5 cause of camera and night mode quality.
I don’t know what I’ll do if I ever lose it…:/
