An incredibly sketchy rumor claims Apple has plans to build a new 5-inch iPhone which, size-wise, would slot between the 4.7-inch iPhone 6s and 5.5-inch iPhone 6s Plus.

The 5-inch iPhone would reportedly sport an 8 MP camera, dual-LED flash, full HD display and A9 processor.

So what’s the evidence for it? A sketch shared on Chinese social media, reportedly by a “Foxconn insider.” Because anyone can take a blurry photo showing a component and claim it’s a new Apple product, but only people truly familiar with Tim Cook’s plans can sketch out a picture on the back of an envelope and put it online. Or something.

Personally, I can’t see there being any truth to this rumor whatsoever. We’ve already heard that Apple may reintroduce its “c” smartphones with a 4-inch iPhone 6c. That would give customers small, medium and large choices of iPhones. The chances of Apple launching a fourth iPhone size — particularly one we’ve heard absolutely nothing about so far — are slim to nonexistent.

Besides, is there really anyone out there longing for a 5-inch iPhone because their hands are too big for the iPhone 6, but too small for the 6 Plus? Leave your comments below.
