The mass production of two new iPhones, debuting larger screens, begins in China next month following competition from the likes of Samsung and HTC.

The newer models are said to be thinner and more curved than the current models and will feature two screen size variations, 4.7 inches and a larger 5.5 inch handset. These larger handsets are designed to compete with current larger screened phones on the market that offer 5.7 inches of viewing pleasure. Something Apple has never done, until now.
The volume of phones being produced isn’t equal between the two size variations. Manufacturing constraints limits the number of 5.5 inch screened phones that can be produced; because of this it is expected by the manufacturers that more than 90% of the shipments will be for the smaller 4.7 inch model opposed to the 5.5 inch handset.

The larger iPhone 6 is said to have limited availability because of, but not limited to, the screen being made of sapphire, which as of yet, isn’t available in large enough quantities. But who knows what might change when they actually become available to buy. No doubt ways around such problems will be found when profit is at stake.
