But you cannot keep adding unlimited features without considering battery life and taking into account its size and weight. There has to be a balance.

Until another phone comes out with good battery life and instant push email I will stick with Blackberry's! Got an iPod touch so I know what an iPhone is mostly capable off.

1080p video is heading for LG phones and soon other phones. Apple would be silly not to upgrade whether it's needed or not if the chips are there then use them.
Another thing with 1080p recording is the storage space. 720p files take up quite a lot of space on my iPhone, you'd need huge storage capacities to sucessfully store those videos alongside apps and photos. Sure it'd be a nice feature to have, but I doubt we'll see it in the next iphone. I suspect it'll be a minor update: Apple iphone 2g to 3g: minor update of technology 3g to 3gs: minor update 3gs to iphone 4: major update I suspect the next phone will be a minor update |

It could also be a major update due to the market share Android is getting. I'm suspecting it may just a wee update myself but people say that bar the retina screen the iphone 4 is just a evolution of the 3Gs ie next camera sensor up, next level up video update, next battery up etc. So this i5 could easily be a revolutionary update rather than a evolutionary... They need WOW factor to spin away all the issues with white i4 & antennagate too.
Doesn't mean the shape of the phone has to change with a major update.. |

LG Optimus can record at 1080p video so it's almost certain Apple will up the resolution as the way phones are heading is Full HD support. I read somewhere Apple may remove buttons from the next Iphone so it may allow a 3"7 inch screen in the current design. |

No. I doubt this will happen for iPhone 5. The entire Apple ecosystem is based around 720p, and they've given no indication they have any interest in 1080p at this time. Apple TV, films on iTunes, all 720p. Those would be more appropriate for the 1080p treatment before their phone.

The US is looking at requiring all mobile phones to have FM. |

.The only two places where DAB is remotely popular is the UK and Denmark, so DAB is a non-starter. The US is looking at requiring all mobile phones to have FM. |

I would like:
[LIST][*]FM radio & transmitter.[*]Bluetooth file transfer with non-iPhones.[*]Tethering not controlled by the carrier.[*]More physical buttons, not less.[*]Updated Google Maps app (fat chance!).[/LIST] Other than that and more of the usual stuff - i.e. battery, memory, speed - I don't see as there's much more you can practically add without changing it into something that it isn't. All the big stuff's been done. |

1. FM radio (transmitter good but not essential).
2. Personal WiFi hotspot capability like in Android 3. Battery improvement 4. Bigger screen 5. More buttons (I like having those extra buttons on android and wp7, found them easier to pick up than ios). Personally I like hardware keyboards but I know it's not the iphone way. |

Main thing I would like is proper/full Bluetooth-why does Apple only give us a crippled one?

Battery you could change
Memory you can upgrade Working alarm clock No dropped signals because you don't use some sort of secret masonic hand shake. |

. Don't believe the anti-mac propaganda. Our iPhone drops fewer calls than our Vodafone Nokia.

I wouldn't mind more codecs so that we can play AVI files etc without having to convert them to mp4 which I can say is a pain in the arse.
Also someway to shield GSM or whatever it's caleld as I have been told that most iPod/iPhone speaker docks out there have the speakers go fuzzy when you receive a text/call which is annoying if you are trying to listen to an album on the speakers. Oh and Flash support. Gotta have Flash support. |

I'm one of the IP4 users who really does lose signal if i hold my phone. I dont do a death grip, i literally hold it as anyone would and it gets on my nerves.
Infact I'm hoping apple pull it out of the bag this year as to be honest I'm starting to get a little bored with iOS, same screens everytime, why cant we have themes and the like? I'm not after a major hardware revision (all i want is a working antenna) My wish list is more software side. I have a severe android itch that may get scratched if the new iPhone isn't up to much |
