Knowing this, will future iPhones be even thinner or instead hold more charge?

Better batteries on the way. Knowing this, will future iPhone's be even thinner or instead hold more charge in the future?

Even if Apple wanted to go the thinner route, the camera and other components will hold them back. Thus, this time they'll have to go with the much better battery life.

Still, they'll somehow be two years behind everyone else as usual.

Thinner.... that is the magic word lately.

I know what I want...more battery. Something that Apple could do at any time, but never do.

Instead Apple concentrates on thinness because that has more wow factor.

Lately?...you're kidding, right?

I would gladly make a joke out of it, but it is more of a tragicomedy.

I just hope the new iPhone is 2-3 mm thicker and hold a much larger battery. No. weight is out of my consideration.

Tired of Apple's obsession with thinness to wow it's customers. Other products have surfed with the loss of ports and even structural integrity jus for the sake of thinness. Hope Apple stops this soon but from what I understand it will not be on the 7.

@Newtons Apple
NA, but we are told that "it is the future"... 😉
We are told that we need a thinner, even more portable device, we don't need ports, AUXs, traditional keyboards, battery life etc....
