The claim
Apple is looking at a future iPhone Duo whose inner display is about half an inch larger (roughly 7.9 to 8.1 inches, versus 7.6 today), replacing rather than joining the current size.
Why we rated it Rumor
Bloomberg's Mark Gurman said on his Power On podcast that he 'heard' Apple is 'looking at' the idea; he did not know the exact size and said it would not be a separate 'Max' model. Gurman's Apple record is strong, but this is an idea under consideration, not a product decision, so it could easily never ship.
