Big changes are coming to Apple’s iPhone line this year, says KGI Securities analyst Ming Chi Kuo.
In a note picked up at Apple Insider, Kuos predicts that Apple will release two larger iPhones by the end of the year.
He’s calling for a 4.7-inch iPhone 6 in the third quarter, and then a 5.5-inch iPhone 6 in the fourth quarter.
Kuo isn’t the only person calling for two big iPhones. We’ve heard it from a variety of sources. The more we hear, the more we think it’s going to happen.
Apple knows that it needs to release a phone with a bigger screen. Last year, in an internal presentation, it said big-screen phones are the best-selling phones. Since Apple had only a 4-inch iPhone, it concluded Customers want what we don’t have.
