On paper, Apple's latest flagship smartphone has a fairly large display. The iPhone X's screen measures 5.8 inches from corner to corner. But in use, the screen hardly feels like it measures nearly 6 inches diagonally. Because Apple's OLED display on the iPhone X has a narrow aspect ratio of 19.5:9, there isn't very much surface area despite the impressive diagonal measurement. In fact, in terms of area, the iPhone X's 5.8-inch display is actually smaller than the 5.5-inch display on the iPhone 8 Plus.
For that reason, many Apple fans have wished for a larger version of the iPhone X ever since the handset was first unveiled this past September. Those wishes only grew stronger in November and people actually got their hands on the phone. In 2018, it appears as though they'll get their wish, because Apple reportedly plans to release three different iPhone models in September, and one of them is expected to be an "iPhone X Plus" with a display that measures 6.5 inches diagonally.
