While Android smartphones continue to get bigger and bigger, iPhone users are stuck with a smaller 3.5-inch display. With next iPhone announcement in sight, many iPhone lovers want a bigger display in the new smartphone.

Many reports have indicated that the new iPhone will come with a 640x1136 pixels 4-inch display. Adding more credibility to these reports, now a popular Apple blog 9to5Mac has found out that iOS 6 is completely scalable to the 640x1136p resolution.

A few tweaks in iOS simulator app have revealed and corroborated the previous reports of the five icon rows on new iPhone home-screen. When the simulator was run at the rumoured 640x1136p resolution with iOS 6, it produced five rows of icons on the home-screen, while the same resolution with iOS 5.1 produced a stretched version of the present four rows icon placement.

What is more interesting that the folks at the blog were not able to produce the five rows icon layout with any other resolution.

This clearly shows that there is certainly a reason for iOS 6 being scalable to 640x1136p resolution, but it is no definite proof of whether Apple will use the same in the upcoming phone.



Is this the new iPhone?
