According to a source, Apple could be phasing out the iPad mini and replace it with a much larger iPhone. Other than featuring a large display, the device is also claimed to have stylus-support. For now, it is suggested to be a folding iPhone that everyone is waiting for.

The device is said to feature a display that is measured between 7.3 and 7.6-inches diagonally and comes with a very tall aspect ratio. For the stylus, it's not clear that the company with match it with the current Apple Pencil or release a new one solely for the folding device. The source claims that the folding iPhone could arrive in September 2022 and will sport a clamshell form factor.
