The most prominent rumor is that of the size of the upcoming device. A new report in the Nikkei Asian Review states that suppliers are actually building two models, a 4.7-inch and a 5.5-inch screen variety, a huge jump from the 4-inch iPhone 5, 5C and 5S and the 3.5-inch iPhone 4S, which still remains on sale.
By comparison, nearly all Android phone makers have flagships with screen sizes at 5 inches or larger, some going as large as 6.3-inches.
As the company has been doing nearly every year, as well, the Retina Display resolution will be increased, as well, with reports claiming it will be above 1080p finally.
The next rumor is the release date for the highly anticipated device. Reports nearly all point to a September release, which would be in line with past iPhone and Apple product releases.
If the rumors prove true, Apple may finally have a device that can truly compete with Android rivals, at least for display size real estate.
