That's it !
The new galaxy body with Apple innards and iOS. What a phone that would be.

They were a work of art, still remember the Gizmodo leak and being excited, but IMO having a good slider case on the 4/4s made it a bit thick compared to the 5/5s (or 6/6+) we have now.

Sure, make the size of the 6 plus and it will be great. Otherwise, it has too small of a screen. It's tough to watch movies and surf the web on a 4" screen.
4" screen is perfect if you only use the iPhone as just a phone and nothing else. Otherwise you'll be getting your readers out!
I quite liked the "square-edged" models, the rounded edges on my iPhone 6 aren't nearly as attractive.

I don't know what you mean by sandwich design, but it's actually referring to the way the components are stacked...
To me I find Apples designs being like an acquired taste. At first I don't particularly care for them but with a bit of time I end up really liking them. And because of that I end up always liking them unlike a fad that I grow tired of the design.
I feel the same a lot of Apple products. The Apple Watch for example, I thought that look pretty bad at first. However now there are a few models I actually really like.
As far as the 4/4S, I still think its a good looking device but to me the newer devices look much better. If I had to pick a design to be updated with modern internals and screen it would most certainly be the iPhone 1. Keeping the two tone back maybe with modern higher quality materials though.

I still love my 4S and I enjoy looking at it all the time.
But to be honest, Apple never looks back and therefore we will never ("never say never") see a remake of the magnificent iPhone 4 line 🙁

I know, but the 6S is likely to be exactly the same design.
The 5 seems a refinement of the 4S; I'd like the 7 to be a refinement of the 6.

Loved the iPhone 4 design when it first came out. It totally blew away all the other phones on the market and made me give up my perfectly working iPhone 3G to get one.
However, I would say the Slate iPhone 5 is the best looking one to date. So sleek and beautiful. Too bad Apple is on the 'Space Grey' nonsense now.
The iPhone 6 feels the best in hand though so I would say that one has the most practical design. It actually curves to fit your palm and feels very natural to hold.
