iPHONE 16 wishlist:

1.
longer battery life (not the same like what happened iphone 14/15)
2. smaller dynamic island for the pro
3. reverse wireless charging
4. bigger screen, smaller bezels for the pro
5. pricing and segmentation to be reduced to just three

iPhone 16 regular (6.1 inches) at $799 - same design like the 15
iPhone 16 pro (6.3 inches) at $999 - smaller bezels, smaller dynamic island
iPhone 16 ultra (6.9 inches) at $1199 - smaller bezels, smaller dynamic island, with ultra exclusive features due to bigger chassis like 10x optical zoom or more than a day battery


yours?

Battery life will always depend on usage.

Today, content consumption is growingly more video based compared with 2 years ago when the 13 launch.

Watching instagram reels and tiktok videos for hours is way more resource intensive than reading articles or scrolling through photos.

So basically what they do every year
yeah. Unless there's a revolutionary technology coming up, nothing significant we will see in the next few years. Underdisplay finger scanner? Nope. New battery technology? Nope. Wifi 6/7/8, what else? A probably new design, and that's pretty much it.

Apples innovation for iPhone owners is selling you the latest accessories eg airpod pro, studio max, magsafe battery and apple watch.

With the inclusion of USB-C 10Gbps on an iPhone 15 Pro I want to see macOS on iPhone when connected to a USB-C display with these I/O

- Thunderbolt 4
- Ethernet
- USB-A
- Headphone
- SDXC slot

A17 Pro has a single core performance superior to any Intel Mac at single digit watt power consumption.

Within this decade a future iPhone chip will eventually have multi core performance superior to any Xeon Mac at single digit watt power consumption.

Apple is heavily investing in entertainment, accessories, and other services to compensate the decreasing revenue from hardware business.
Yupp. On top of £70/month pgone plans, apple looks forward to us spending an additional £20-30/month on 2-10T to create and store spatial videos 😐🙃😭

Not have any so will not be disappointed. No expectations on anything. Will be happy what Apple will offer on next release :) I generally upgrade annually to have and enjoy any changes

1. Solid state buttons.
2. Dynamic island replaced with under the screen FFC.
3. 6.8 inch screen.
4. Better GPU for gaming. Though A17 in iPhone 15 PM already has a wonderful GPU, but if Apple can push it further to give it a PC gaming like experience, it will change the whole mobile gaming

Id like to be able to take a picture of a moon lit night and the moon not appear as a over bright ball. Samsung blows our cameras away with astro photography still.

As a photog I'd want to see a 1-inch image sensor on an iPhone.
