I would like to see not just any plain looking phone, as expected.

Apple value is not like heydays anymore. Look at the lukewarm response as compared to previous release, we know that Tim Cook and his lieutenants are not able to sustain the company image, reputation , innovation and being the market leader in evolution.

However here's some hopeful in case Im wrong, or Apple just drop to Sony Class or Htc Class, while *Samsung or Xiaomi leads the pack (dont flame me pls, im not a fanboy). I do hope to see a : 4.7' screen size, retina display (or a better hi-def display, cause visual is important and is something we see daily) , sleeker profile, stronger battery life (apply ipad class battery know-how), stronger and durable buttons (apply durability know-how).

Thats all.




*applied assumption only. By no means a strong opinion , or accurate prediction.

As long as its sized appropriately, at least like the 4.3" PSP screen, it'll be still good for one hand operation

1) fix the damn home and power button that goes insensitive after some time

2) bigger screen, preferably 5"

3) bigger battery capacity

:D

You do know that the mechanism for the home button had changed between the 4S and the 5 right? Much more lasting and responsive.

And larger phone = more space for larger battery. That's almost a given.

Sounds interesting but a bit unbelievable as it is barely 4 months after the 5s is launched.

[Official Thread on the next iPhone 6] iPhone Air. Details revealed. Pictures!

Report claims to reveal new details on upcoming iPhone 6

By Chris Smith on Jan 6, 2014 at 11:13 AM

A new report from South Korean publication ET News says the iPhone 6, which it calls “iPhone Air,” will be just 6 millimeters thick when it is unveiled later this year, making the handset significantly thinner than its predecessors. Comparatively, the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5 have a 7.6 millimeter profile while the iPhone 5c is thicker, at 8.97 millimeters. The publication says the news comes from Chinese media, but it certainly can’t be verified at this point. The iPhone 6 will still be made of metal, although it will be a bit heavier than previous models, the same source says.

The design of the iPhone 6 will reportedly be based on the iPhone 5s, although the upcoming iOS handset is said to be bigger than the 2013 flagship model. The phone is expected to be unveiled and launched at some point in September.

Recent reports have suggested that this year Apple is going to launch iPhones with bigger displays than the 4-inch screen found in current models. The company is rumored to consider 4.7- to 5.7-inch displays for future generation devices, although that’s also a report that can’t be confirmed at this time.

Interestingly, the same etnews says that the price of the iPhone 5s will go down to $100 at some point in May, presumably in the U.S., for on-contract purchases. Only a few days ago, Best Buy dropped the price of the on-contract iPhone 5s down to $125.
