None of that has any chance in hell to happen.
Headphone jack will not return. Home button's days are numbered, get yourself an iPhone 8 while you can.

I’m sure we will see the analysts’ predictions about constrained supplies at launch any day now.
That's always my favourite prediction. It means we are nearly there.
Apple are a much much much bigger company now. One of the biggest there is.
And they have a leading position in different sectors.
They cannot just keep on selling just iPhones or Macs. They need to expand, to differentiate, to keep abreast with technology, to make sure they maintain their lead.
One thing Cook did excellently is to streamline their production chains, from supply to retail. Apple before they re-hired Jobs was in dire straights precisely because of a lack of that streamlining, leading to enormous waste of resources and money. They were just basically throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what stuck.
Under Cook's lead, Apple has become surgical (if a tad boring) in the way they approach new markets. Some blunders of course still happen and always will (HomePod), nobody is ever exempt from those.
I just want 16:9 with no corner radius’s with a 5inch plus size screen.
The iPhone X is too small and screen effective size is even smaller.
I’m not so much a notch hater, I don’t mind it as much as the 16:9 and radius corners that offend me! LCD might be a killer phone if they ditch force touch and a few other Apple abortions included because they thought the gimmick would catch on.
My wife has the 7plus and has NEVER used force touch despite me demonstrating its usefulness multiple times, it should just disappear quietly.

I don’t understand what’s so newsworthy here. It looks like another iPhone. We’re not like the days of the iPhone 4 where everybody is still experimenting with unique designs. Nowadays, every phone, including the iPhone, looks the same. It’s nore interesting in finding out the spec (ie. How much RAM). There’s nothing exciting about these outer case leaks.
Let me guess. You also want VHS tapes back? How about floppy disks? Welcome to 2018.
That would be the best phone for me. The 5.5'' display with reduced bezels on top and bottom. I'm not a fan of iPhone X aspect ratio, I'll end up buying that eventually but if they made a 5.5 they'd make me happy
People dont want to see their content on a postage stamp sized screen anymore....
Wait... How does a “dummy” leak? You mean it was revealed. I take it these “dummies” were made by someone other than Apple, right?
How about a new 4" iPhone to replace the long forgotten SE? Hello, Apple, are you there? *crickets*
which is what exactly?
I wouldn't mind them going back to the square edge iPhone 4 style. but you can't do much with phones its just a slab of glass in the end
Which is exactly why the SE-sized phone could be updated with bigger screen, less bezel, a'la iPhone X - best of all worlds.
right and 6.5" phones are not the size of flat screen TVs.... check the post I quoted and you'll understand what I wrote.
I did. An SE2 could have a 4.5" screen size, which isn't small/postage stamp sized or whatever you want to call it.
ugh never mind. it was sarcasm, someone called the 6.5" the size of a flat screen tv which is obviously an exageration... So I countered with the postage size comment which is obviously an exageration as well... you are either trolling me, or there is a language barrier.
Apparently the SE sold well in Apple's product mix, so it is unclear why they are not refreshing it.
Unless they concluded it sold well largely because of price point, not form factor, and they are possibly trying to match the SE's current price with a heavily discounted 7.
In Italy you can buy a new SE for 250€. The rest of the lineup is outrageously more expensive.
I love the SE form factor, but lacking updates, I would probably have very few qualms about moving to a 7 if it were priced so low.

Absolutely. You can already see the small tidbits of hinting going out. Typical Apple MO. No reason to stop. Works every time. Just like following the Piper.
