When was the last time they even made a 3.5"? iPhone 4S? Even the iPod touch has had a 4" screen for 2 years now. I use my old 4S as an around the house "beater" device, and just looking at the screen is taxing on my aging eyes. Certainly nothing less than a 4" would suffice for me now.

It was the #2 seller (behind the iPhone 5S) on 3 of the 4 major carriers, so it was pretty smart.

Of course it was a smart idea, cheaper to make than a iPhone 5 and they could charge the same price as a iPhone 5 would have when the iPhone 5S came out. It was a very good business decision.

I am currently using a 5", 5.5" and 5.7" phones and even when I had my first modern smartphone it was 4". I cannot see myself using a 3.5" screen phone...

Really because many reports otherwise....while it sold well, it wasn't anything what apple expected and that is why you do not see the colored iPhones in the 6/6plus era lol. So to me that sounds more like it was an idea that did decently but certainly not well enough as they don't appear to be continuing that idea a year later.

Which as I said, the iPhone 5c sold well be certainly not at the expectations of Apple. From what I gather it did sell well but it was hoped they could do kore with it than they did.

Re: 3.5" iPhone again?
I could see a 4", 4.7" and 5.5" lineup being the regular from now on but no way will they do another 3.5" model.

I have an iPhone 5c, it's a great phone and I see them everywhere, at least here in the UK. What was so wrong with it?
I also think that it is very likely that Apple will launch a 6c model this year.
I have just been looking at a 4/4s that was found down by the side of our garage last week. The back was missing and there was some corrosion inside. It still works after I charged it up. Looking at the screen on this phone, there is no way that Apple will ever launch another phone with a 3.5" screen.
