An ideal 6S, or an expected 6S?

Ideal = 3GB RAM, a flush camera, iOS9 with zero bugs.

Expected = 2GB RAM, same body shape with protruding camera, iOS9 with many bugs.#

I honestly don't think that the protruding camera is a problem at all.
As for iOS 9, I honestly think Apple will focus on fixing bugs and better memory optimisation. I think Apple might add the Mavericks compressed memory feature. If they do this, the iPhone 6S with the expected 2GiB might actually perform better than phones with 3GB. They will never actually have 3GB though. If you look at the past, they have always done it with powers of 2

Just so it is not thinner, I will be happy. They will have to come up with something good to get me to leave my 6+. We will see.

It's an S so that means same form factor.;)

  • OLED (not too likely)
  • Force Touch (almost for sure)
  • Always on 'Hey Siri' (very likely)
  • USB type C (flip a coin)
  • 2GB RAM (good chance)
  • Optical Zoom (small chance)

I also wish it'd not have a protruding camera :/. And wireless charging would be a nice addition.

Always on 'Hey Siri' (very likely)
I can just imagine someone shouting 'Hey Siri' on the train, and everyones Siri suddenly activating :p. Happened to me during Apple's media event last week anyway, as my phone was plugged in at the time!

Totally agree and Apple needs to add customized 'Hey Siri' command like Android does.

Optical zoom? Zero chance.

Double the ram, make the 4.7" version identical to the 5.5" version in terms of specs. I like the extra screen real estate, better camera, better display, and better battery life of the 6 Plus, but man is it cumbersome at times.

My personal wish list:

- More scratch resistant screen, maybe some kind of Sapphire-hybird (no idea how feasible that is)
- IP57 water/dust proof
- 1080p 120fps
- Always on Hey Siri
- Front camer slow mo
- Another black-faced colour option
- iOS 9 which isn't the buggy mess iOS 8 is
- Force Touch display
- 2GB RAM

What's the obsession with the non-plugged Hey Siri? How hard is it to hold down the home button?

- some sort of IP rated water/dust resistance
- 4K video recording
- OIS
- stable version of iOS
- Force Touch display
- 2-3GB RAM
- Notification LED
- iPhone 6s Plus that is not as tall or has a larger screen in the same size
- 1080p 4.7" iPhone 6s
- No more ugly antenna bands
- thicker phones with more battery and flush camera
- USB Type C connector rather than lightning
- a version with a silver metal back and black bezel around the screen I love the silver colour but can't live with a white bezel.

I will agree with the thinner thing, it was a joke.

I have trouble seeing you wishes above, at least not all of them. We will know later this year.

Emm I have meant notification led when you have missed call or message, it keeps flashing, not display technology.

Sure but as Julien already mentioned it is unlikely to happen.
That's why zou can only hope for a switch to oled.
