Donald Trump has just posted to Twitter and Facebook declaring that 'Tim Cook must immediately increase the size of the screen on the iPhone'.
I have a lot of @Apple stock--- and I miss Steve Jobs. Tim Cook must immediately increase the size of the screen on the iPhone. It should be slightly larger than the Samsung screen- and they better get it right fast because they will lose a lot of business. I like the larger screen.

Although I like options and a slightly larger screen size, to say "who cares how much Apple stock" one has makes no difference is actually quite false! Companies listen to their shareholders as the annual proxys/voting rights that come out can get CEO's fired! So although we want Trump to stay outta the picture, he has every right to make his opinion known as a large Apple stockholder.

There needs to be options. I am not a big fan of the iPhone 5 screen. It is proportioned wrong just making it 1/2 an inch taller. It needed to be wider too. They need to make a larger 4.5-4.8 inch option for people that want a larger screen to stay competitive. The days are gone when one iPhone style and size is enough. It's not innovative any longer. Is there just one MacBook size?

Tim Cook is against the larger screen at the moment for the iphone its all about one hand experience if the display goes as large as s 3 or s 4 the device will only be used with 2 hands. But again I think it will be a good idea to increase the size of the screen so that iphone users cant text while driving :) Its all for the good I guess, peace

Miguel how is a screen big enough to see bad on a smart phone if all you want is to make phone calls you don't need a smart phone! Besides which I want at least 2 size phones one the size there are now & one that only just fits in your shirt pocket! i.e. big screen & big battery PS if you turn everything off but the phone i.e. 3G-4G wifi in other words dumb it down your battery will last longer! But if you so that you don't need a smart phone!

As a Lakers Fans I always considered Steve Jobs just like Jerry Buss, while Tim Cook is like Jim Buss. The first two names bring success while the other two bring........(fill up the blank, pls) Lol.

they will never ever increase screen size because that would mean copying years of Samsung innovation and possible patent infringement. We talking Crapple here company that patented round corners.

You guys will be buy it because its a apple product and donald trump knows it. Hes all about the money and hes the worlds richest guy.

injuredsquirrel - April 30, 2013 at 12:35am
Sorry mate he is not the Worlds richest guy, he's actually not even close to being the richest.
According to the Forbes rich list, Carlos Slim Helu and family are the richest with 73B as a net fortune.
Donald Trump is only worth 3.2B and is number 423 in the Forbes rich list.
By the way I use the term 'only' in a very nominal sense here, doesn't matter how I think about it, he's rich as hell, but not anywhere close to being the richest in the World.

Yes they should increase the size but remember the iPhone is now 16:9 so the size cannot be too big it should be slightly smaller width that the galaxy. And those who dunno who Donald trump is he is a businessmen he know how to predict changes in the market well don't underestimate him

bigger but designed around the size of our thumbs - April 29, 2013 at 10:38pm
All software at the moment is designed with the smaller thumb size in mind. if no major buttons were placed in the top quarter of the screen then usability could be improved ten fold. But its all down to the devs to design bigger and better apps for bigger phones.

Who's Donald Trump? Is he even relevant? Patience is the key here. The larger screen size will come but only after its been perfected. We don't need another apple maps problem.

The current size of the iPhone is perfect. If one need something bigger, buy an iPad Mini.
