Apple will reportedly deliver a two bigger models. The current iPhone has a 4-inch screen. The iPhone 6 is expected to have a 4.7-inch screen and a 5.5-inch screen.

So, if you have an iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, or even an iPhone 5, you may be asking yourself if it's worth taking advantage of this Walmart deal.

Here is my advice. If you can wait, then wait. The price of an iPhone 5S will not be higher in September. At that point, you'll be able to see the big screen phones and make a decision for yourself.

However, if you're impatient, go to Walmart. Try using the internet on a Samsung S5 phone and a Galaxy Note III phone. If you like those big screens, then wait until September. If you think they're too big, and too hard to handle, then you should just buy an iPhone 5S.

The iPhone 5S is a great phone. Based on everything we've read, the bigger screen is the only major modification coming the iPhone 6.
