As I recall, the big reason that Apple didn't want to go to a bigger screen was because of the ergonomics, i.e. you can't use it one handed. If Apple goes with the bigger screen it will be because they either figured out a way around the ergonomic issue (Siri voice commands perhaps), or they decided that using the phone one handed wasn't that big of an issue with their customers.

Much simpler than any of that ergonomic stuff. People want large screen phones, 4" was OK 4 years ago, but not now, not last year, not the year before that - they're 3 years late to the party.
This is from apple, it was released in the trial with Samsung. It shows people do not want 4" screen or lower anymore.
