Apple's iPhone 6 in the making is expected, but what's not expected is the hush about the company's suspected initiative to launch the new generation of iPhone with bigger, wider screens in two variants: 4.7 inch and 5.5 inch. That's not it, higher-screen resolution is said to be at play as well in one of the said models, rumored to roll out anytime this year.

9to5Mac reports about the rumors, citing unnamed sources said to be familiar with the new handset being tested, and analysts seem to be confident that Apple can do the job well.

"Apple has taken great care [with new iPhones] so there is minimal work for developers to support new screens," Avi Greengart, an analyst at Current Analysis said.

9to5Mac also notes that the new iPhone will have a pixel-tripling mode. Nevertheless, the media outlet does not disclose which of the two iPhone 6 variants would come with a sharper resolution. It merely says one will have a 960x1704 pixels resolution screen. This is truly much sharper than the resolution of 4-inch screen displays of iPhone 5, 5c and 5s that is only 640x1136 pixels.

It further claims that Apple's 4.7-inch iPhone 6 would have an increased pixel density of 416ppi and its 5.5-inch model would have 356ppi. Again, this would showcase more pixel density for iPhone 6 than its forerunners. It also says one can view this as Apple's response to its staunch rival Android smartphones that boast full high-definition resolution

Various speculations came out as to when would Apple intend to roll out this next generation of iPhone. Research says the iPhone 6's 4.7-inch model might come in August and its 5.5-inch model might follow later. It also claims the 5.5-inch variant was delayed because of battery cell supply constraints, which uses an expensive sapphire as display material. Because of this, there might be a limited production of the said variant.

Now, there's another issue at hand for Apple that might affect production. Its store employees in Germany office were supposedly stopped to request days off sometime in September. In 2013, day-off requests of Apple employees were blacked out from September 15 to 28, as the company was launching the iOS 7 and iPhone 5c/5s. There are speculations that Apple will apply this as a worldwide policy, but no final word on it yet.

With Apple's rival Samsung known for its larger screen displays, the trend is much clearer now as there's obviously a growing market for mobile manufacturers producing larger screens. In fact, Canalys, a market research firm, says in a latest report that a little over a third of the total smartphones sold in the first quarter worldwide have 5-inch or even much larger displays. Yet Greengart believes there's a limit to this trend.

"There is a definite limit to [their] portability, since they need to fit into your pocket," Greengart says.

Apple's iPhone 6 bigger screen variants and higher resolution remain a speculation as of this writing, which means fanatics will have to wait till the company officially releases a statement on this.
