Why This Apple Inc. iPhone Rumor Probably Isn't True
An analyst with Jeffries & Co. recently published, by way of Barron's, some predictions about Apple's (NASDAQ: AAPL) 2018, 2019, and even 2020 iPhone lineups. I don't intend to go over those predictions or judge the likelihoods of each prediction given. Instead, I'd like to zero in on one specific prediction that the analyst made and explain why it's not likely to be correct.
Next year, Apple is expected to introduce a larger-screen member of the iPhone X family, which I'll refer to as the iPhone X Plus (2018) for simplicity. The device was previously rumored to feature an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display -- a type of display technology that offers excellent contrast ratios and fast pixel response times, compared with what common liquid crystal displays are capable of.
The rumor also said the display would measure 6.46 inches along the diagonal. That would make the display the largest Apple has ever shipped on a smartphone.
