Citing sources within Apple's supply chain, theWall Street Journalreports today that Apple istesting prototypes of larger screensfor the iPhone and iPad.
Apple据说是testing screens that are larger than the standard 4 inches for iPhones and as large as 13 inches for theiPad, which currently has a 9.7-inch screen.
Last year, Apple increased the size of its iPhone screens from 3.5 inches to 4 inches. Apple also released the iPad Mini, which has a 7.9-inch display.
While Apple has beencriticized for not producing iPhones with larger displays, Chief Executive Tim Cook has defended the device's 4-inch screen, saying it is intended for easy, one-handed use.
