http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/07/iphone-5-2013-6-13-02.jpgRumors that Apple is looking to super-size its upcoming iPhone and iPad lineups are gathering steam, thanks to a recent report from the Wall Street Journal. It cited Apple’s suppliers in Asia, who claim that Cupertino is testing prototype iPhone screens larger than the current four inches, along with an iPad design slightly less than 13-inches. While Apple wouldn’t comment, of course, that jibes with an earlier Reuters report, which claimed that Apple was considering 4.7- and 5.7-inch iPhone screens. If accurate (and that’s always a big if with Apple rumors), the report doesn’t necessarily mean that larger-screened products will ever come to market – Apple routinely changes specs and tests components during the development cycle. Still, it would be further evidence that the company’s willing to bend on its one-size-fits-all screen size policy, which is something that the large-handed (or weak-eyed) among us might appreciate.
