Apple to launch new 4" iPhone next year

04 December, 2014
The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus are top sellers, but some prefer to use a compact phone with just one hand.

AnonD-200220, 04 Dec 2014Lol they realised that there large size phones will bend. S... moreIt still makes sense..
You are paying for the apple brand name.
With samsung too you pay for the brand name.
If you don't want a brand name then buy xiaomi.

      4 is too small. Motorola used to make 4.3 phones that are smaller than the 4 inch iPhone 5s. Shave those darn bezels, that's the ultimate mini. One handed use but not way too small.

      4.7 for a regular phone (13x 6.5), 4.3 for a mini (12x6) and 5.5 for a big phone (14.5 X 7.5).

      All android flagship are big nowadays, even iPhone is bigish these days. We need one handed use to comeback and big phones to be mostly screen like the LG G3, none of this 5 inch behemoths sponsored by HTC and Sony (relatively small screen in and no big chasis)

        This raises the question how the new 4-incher will be positioned – compact premium or budget offering?
        --------------------
        Budget? Apple doesn't understand this meaning. For Apple everything is premium.

          I really appreciate if other brands were to use 1080p resolutions on the new phones next year, there is no need for 2k resolution on 4" 5" or even 6" inches screens, other than have a lower fps and benchmark.

              Something like 4s with AW protection, better battery and better processor. Call it iPhone 6 "Rock" :-)

                Lol they realised that there large size phones will bend. So let's go back making small ones. They should. Make it from titanium than that high price would make sense.

                  Dave, 04 Dec 2014What a joke. Everyone should get the 6 plus. Better battery... moreand stupidly large. There is a sizable portion of smarphone users who want a phone first, not a small tablet/media centre y'know

                    I hate apple for their pricing. But this move is awesome. There should be flagship in all sizes. Even a 4" screen. But if they cramp flagship specs into it the cost will be more the iPhone 6 or 6 plus. That's the main reason why most of the manufactures, don't want to make very small flagships. On the other hand buyers expect smaller price tag on small sized screen.

                        compact premium. Apple would never go "budget". remember the 5c? people thought it would be "budget", but never did get to be.

                            I think its the new iPod touch

                              4" is rather small, 4.5-4.7" is the perfect size! But at least they are thinking about portability and one handed use. Kudos.

                                  Yes, yes, yes... I hate big phones. 4,7 is too big for everyday life.
