Why a 6.1-inch Apple Inc. iPhone Makes Perfect Sense

According to generally reliable analyst Ming-Chi Kuo with KGI Securities, Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) is planning to launch three new iPhones next year. One of these new iPhones will be a new version of this year's iPhone X, which incorporates a 5.85-inch organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display; another will be a larger version of that updated iPhone X, but with a gigantic 6.46-inch OLED display; and the last will be an iPhone with 6.1-inch liquid crystal display (LCD).

The LCD model is expected to be the cheapest model in the lineup, as LCD technology costs less and and is less advanced than OLED technology. Additionally, per Kuo, the LCD model will "differ significantly from the OLED models in hardware and design specs."
