The title seems unthinkable, but for all we know the new iPhone 6 may indeed by the first Apple phablet device that could compete with Android devices such as Xperia Z1 Ultra, Galaxy Note 3 and the Oppo N1. The fact on the matter is that this is a very popular market right now and Apple has done absolutely nothing to get their share of the profit. However, how would the creating of a large 5.5 inch iPhone be accepted by current iPhone users? While a lot of people complained about the treansition from 3.5 inch displays to 4.0 inch that did not stop sales for skyrocketing. However, this seems like a much more radical change in planning and therefor it is unlikely that Apple won't have a separate flagship for their current userbase that enjoys smaller screens.
Adopting the Samsung Galaxy Concepts?
In my personal opinion this idea wouldn't be half bad - create a main flagship model and a larger phablet device. You see other companies that use Android doing this all the time and the best example is Samsung. Sure, their Note 3 is now a name of its own, but it all started as a spin off from the Galaxy S license as this was the most popular, top-selling and most loved series that Samsung had at that time.
So, how about a iPhone 6 that won't exceed the 4.5 inch size and a iPhone 6X or something which would be a phablet? I don't know about the rest of you, but that sounds like a brilliant idea to me and I think it to be fair towards everyone's needs and requirements.
