I don't want them to change ANYTHING about the current phone. I've only had mine a week and it's on a three year contract, so early 2015 will be soon enough for changes.

I'd be interested to know the gender split of who wants a larger phone, my gut says men who tend to carry phones in pockets prefer the current size, while women who tend to carry phones in purses tend to prefer larger phones...

I can see slightly bigger, but nothing like those phablets on the market.

Slightly taller would be nice with the same pixel density. Another row of icons would be good.

My vote was no, but after reading more of the posts in the thread maybe technically it should have been yes

Yes to a bigger screen as long as the physical size/shape of the unit doesn't change (ie. entire front of iphone being screen, no physical home button or speaker/camera stripe)

Bigger. 16:9 please. And drop the plastic at the edge of the screen, so as to keep the phone the same size. Here, take my money.

I carry my phone in a purse (technically it's called a "baise-en-ville" for men). I'm male. I want a bigger screen. Should I warn my kids I may be gay?

Ok yes drop the glass back... increase to around 4in and make it so its 16:9 or 16:10 (thats what the 15" MBP is right?) a slightly wider and taller phone would mean more volume for larger batteries... but likely Apple will make it thinner instead.
