WWDC & 4-inch iPhone

· ·

Ross Kimes:

Apple will make no mention of a new resolution at WWDC next week. They will give out iOS 6 for developers to get ready for that. If a new iPhone with a larger screen is released this fall, then us developers will then be giving the opportunity to prepare our apps for the larger screen.

I agree. Assuming the iPhone remains on an annual release cycle, Apple isn’t going to steal the thunder from a fall hardware announcement at a software conference in June.

WWDC will focus on software and the future of iOS. Other than the announcement of a new product line, Apple simply doesn’t pre-release hardware specifications. If you want to know what the next iPhone will look like, read the rumor sites or wait until the fall.
