We are only 2 months away from the new iPhones, so I was wondering, taking into consideration that this generation will just be an evolution of the iPhone 6, what is your wish list?

I would like to see the following:
  • More RAM
  • 4K Video recording
  • A darker space gray color
I am trying to not wish a lot of things.
 
I am assuming that the design will be the same, so I don't expect bigger batteries and that's why I didn't mention battery life.

Well, going by the rumors of Apple using smaller chips inside the phone, it could give some more room for the battery. Also, newer/more efficient internals mean better battery life.
 
2GB of RAM
Improved Camera (13MP, OIS on all models, larger sensor, wider aperture, 4K video)
1080p resolution on the 6S
Slightly larger battery
Fix the ugly antenna lines
 
Better battery life can also be achieved by reducing power consumption.
That's true. Let's wait and see what happens in September. Somehow I am not very excited. Since the design will remain the same, I would like to see a higher display resolution, but so far we haven't heard anything about it.

  1. Dark Mode (an automatic mode, dark when in a dark room, or at night)
  2. Removal of the sim tray
  3. Removal of the home button (touch ID under the screen in a designated area)
  4. Removal of all wires (usb + headphone jack)
  5. Another speaker at the top (stereo)
  6. have an all black iPhone again (no space grey)
  7. No bezels !
  8. iOS10 becomes more social, adding grouping option to contacts where u can message them, share an album, music apps and everything else
  9. iOS10 in iMessages when u post a link, share music, videos... it showed a preview to the link, or a button to play the song
  10. iOS10 ads power saving mode, silent mode buttons to the control centre + ability to access the settings form there.;)

So no openings; is this hinting a waterproof iPhone? Not going to happen for 5-10 years though. The ports, not the waterproofing. I'm not sure if you are referring to mute or do not disturb by silent mode, but they are both available in control centre. And iOS 9 already has power saving mode. But apart from that, good ideas.
 
My iPhone 6S+ Wishlist, in the order of most wanted by me to least:

- More Ram (2GB ram -- To support the features directly below!)
- Multitasking (Picture in Picture and Side by Side multi-app on par with iPad Air 2)
- Starting model at 32gb (do away with 16gb and introduce 32gb as entry level with same cost as 16gb)
- Force Touch
- NFC Chip opened up for actual NFC usage beyond Apple Pay
- Saphire screen (Or the new and improved gorilla glass they're calling 'Phire')
- Improved Camera, More filters, improved slow motion quality.
 
My iPhone 6s Plus whishlist would be:

- Why not a larger battery
- More ram
- Force Touch & some (very) usefull ways to use it
- A better front camera
- A 32GB version instead of the 16GB one (yep we can dream a lil bit.)
- AND that it fits my 6 plus' cases.
 
More RAM (2Gb min.)
- Some Android smartphones are released with 4Gb now!

More storage capacity [at Lower prices] considering that flash media is relatively CHEAP nowadays but it won't happen since Apple makes Too much money from this :mad:
- Could just add a card slot but it won't happen either!

Better camera and functionality

Improve screen resolution

Larger battery

Removable battery (never going to happen)

True multitasking

Better WIFI

Better clear loudspeaker

Better battery management

IMPROVED, LESS BUGGY IOS!

I would bet on the iPhone 6s having at least two of those things. You can see images of the 6th generation iPod touch's space gray color compared to the 5th generation's, and it is darker. I think that's the same color that the iPhone 6s will come in.

As for the 2GB of RAM, I think that it will happen for two reasons: the past two iPhones and the current one all have 1GB of RAM, something that had never happened before (four years in a row would be too much, even three was too much!). Also, they need to increase it in order to keep up with the competition, even if they don't include 3 or 4GB of RAM. Imagine how bad 1GB of RAM would look in the iPhone 6s+, a phone that was released after the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+, which has 4GB of RAM. They would never hear the end of it!
