More fuel on the fire: Leaked schematics point to a supersized iPhone 6

Even though we’re several months away from Apple’s announcement of the iPhone 6, that doesn’t mean there are plenty of rumors to mill over. One specific rumor alleges that there will be two iPhone 6 models: one with a 4.7-inch display and one with a 5.5-inch display. Throw another log on the fire because yet another leak has come out strongly hinting at a larger iPhone.

Nowhereelse.fr acquired a document from a Chinese website that shows an alleged schematic design for the iPhone 6. The schematic purports a length of 5.9 inches and a width of 3.3 inches, a significant jump from the iPhone 5S, which comes in at 4.87 x 2.32 inches. According to the French blog, the dimensions would put the iPhone 6’s display with a diagonal of at least 5 inches.

As mentioned before, the schematic’s dimensions don’t exactly line up with what others have reported, though it’s possible that Apple is playing around with different dimensions. Even so, all rumors indicate that the iPhone 6 will be the largest iPhone Apple has made, finally addressing the competition’s insistence on larger screens for their handsets. Nokia, LG, HTC, and even BlackBerry have all released bigger-sized handsets, with the iPhone 5S looking smaller with each passing day.

Weekend flash sale gets you a brand new iPhone for $149

The Apple iPhone SE (2022) being held in a mans hand.

If you've been wanting to get into Apple's ecosystem for a while, but have been worried about the high prices of their phones and tablets, then the Apple iPhone SE is the way to go. Billed as the first and only budget-friendly Apple phone, it lets consumers access the Apple ecosystem without spending an arm and a leg, which is a good thing. In fact, the third-generation iPhone SE came out at the beginning of this year and brought with it a lot of great upgrades.

While a relatively new iPhone doesn't often see a lot of substantial sales, we're happy to see this massive $230 discount on the iPhone SE 2022 from Best Buy. That brings the price down to a more reasonable $149 rather than the usual $379. There is a caveat, though, which is that it's part of a phone plan from Straight Talk, so you'd have to pair it with a no-contract unlimited talk, text & data plan from Straight Talk to gain access to the discount. Even so, that's not a bad deal, especially given the discount, so it's well worth grabbing while the deal lasts.
