Larger-Screen iPhone Rumors Continue with 4.9-Inch iPhone 6, iPhone 5c Successor

According to Chinese site C Technology [Google Translate, via Unwired View], Apple has begun testing a next-generation iPhone prototype with a 4.9-inch display, along with an iPhone 5c successor sporting a larger screen. The claim is somewhat different from one made by Bloomberg earlier this month stating that Apple was developing two next-generation iPhones that would feature curved displays at 4.7 and 5.5 inches, although it is likely that the company is testing various screen sizes as it often does during a development cycle.     4-inch iPhone 5s vs. 4.9-inch Samsung Galaxy S4 (Source: phoneArena.com)  Rumors of an iPhone featuring a significantly larger screen have surfaced occasionally throughout the past couple of months, with The Wall Street Journal reporting in July and September that Apple had begun testing prototype iPhones with screens as large as six inches, and a report last month from NPD DisplaySearch speculating that Apple may release both a 4.7-inch and a 5.7-inch iPhone in 2014.   Currently, Apple's iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c both feature 4-inch Retina displays, compared to competitors like Samsung's Galaxy S4 that feature 5-inch displays. MacRumors released a printable papercraft version of a 5-inch iPhone back in February of this year after other rumors of a larger iPhone surfaced.   Recent Mac and iOS Blog Stories • Moshi Announces Ultrathin 'VersaKeyboard' iPad Air Case • Apple Updates iMovie With Support for More Macs • Tweetbot for Mac Updated With Scrolling Improvements, Replies From Notifications • Adobe Offering Photoshop CC and Lightroom for $9.99/Month to All Users Through December 2 • iBank 5 for Mac Adds Bill Pay, Streamlined Updating, and More • New Virtual Pet App 'Hatch' From 'Clear' Developers Hits the App Store • Microsoft's 'Xbox One SmartGlass' iOS App Now Available for Download • Twitter for iOS Updated With New Search Filters, Trending Timeline
