Here's an easy one: trim the fugly bezels.
That you still have my attention is reward enough.
Oh, I don't talk about performance, that's why I mentioned iOS 10 - who likes TouchWiz? Yuck!
I was talking design-wise, but God forbid you have an opinion here
Yes, but that same Galaxy design was ridiculed by many for being a franken ripoff of Apple's 4 and 6 design, but without the symmetry and elegance.
I'm not ridiculing you; just questioning your logic. I get it... Apple fans are passionate, so they rant and vent because they have such high expectations, but it's important to keep things in perspective.
For example, everyone's been conditioned to getting a new iPhone design every 2 years, but the reality is, the smartphone market has matured. It takes more time to come up with thoughtful innovations; whether in design or functionality.
Just look at the laptop market. When was the last time you heard people complain because the MBP design wasn't updated every 2 years? In that space people are happy for only a 10% speed bump.
Correction: it takes Jony more time, because he's apparently too busy posing for Vogue.
I have never dropped the 6 or 6s and I have no case on it.
Not to mention, have you held the Samsucks?
So does this mean then that their will be only one Plus sized model? With an even more confusing and fragmented feature set from the 4.7" iPhone, the Plus will have a much more advanced dual camera and the 4.7" will be shockingly lucky to even get OIS?
Or will their be no dual camera model? This article is very confusing in this respect.

I don't care what it's called. Preorder day needs to get here so I can order a 4.7 in Space Black.
I had to google what it means (English is not my first language), but thanks for the warning! But I stand by what I said
Additional premium features on a phone may be nice, but there's nothing "Pro" about them.
How about you name something that could really be useful and kicker-like besides the obvious better photos and speed bump?
A battery technology breakthrough that makes my iPhone last 3 to 5 days compared to between barely one and one and a half days right now is almost all I could wish for.
I mean, naming something in a macrumors thread is hardly going to make it actually happen, but I agree, something like a major breakthrough in battery technology or efficiency wherein the device's battery is significantly improved would be an example of a "kicker." Other ideas I had in mind related specifically to the elimination of the headphone jack. For example, an improvement in bluetooth audio streaming wherein lossless audio may be streamed, advanced waterproofing, wireless charging....
I think you're overestimating about people underestimating.
"Pro" doesn't mean much of anything. So I think it's funny that you came up with your own definition while Apple and everybody else come up with theirs

The assumed names of this year's iPhone lineup -- "iPhone 7" and "iPhone 7 Plus" -- have been confirmed by "reliable sources" speaking with Japanese site Mac Otakara. The sources said that Apple is following this name scheme to avoid confusion of having back-to-back iPhones with "S" in the name, even though the iPhone 7 will largely be a minor update over the iPhone 6s.
The new report nixes the chance for an additional third tier "iPhone 7 Pro," which was a rumored dual-lens alternative to the single-lens "iPhone 7 Plus" early in the rumor cycle. The less-powerful camera option was said to be created by Apple as a fallback in case the dual-lens technology didn't pan out. Now that everything seems to be going well for the company in this area, and mockups have repeatedly shown a dual-lens camera enclosure, it makes sense for Apple to revert to the well-known "Plus" moniker for its next-generation 5.5-inch dual-lens iPhone, and drop any reference to "Pro" altogether.
Otherwise, Mac Otakara reiterates on the expected rumors of the iPhone 7: there won't be a 3.5 mm headphone jack, it will house an A10 chip, and it will introduce a new flush, capacitive Home Button in lieu of the traditional physical switch. That last aspect of the new iPhone has been a bit more up in the air in the weeks ahead of the September launch, since it's hard to fully decipher whether recent image mockups confirm one way or the other if the Home Button is pressure-sensitive or not.
It's believed that the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus will be revealed at an Apple event on September 7, with pre-orders beginning two days later on September 9. A recent leak from AT&T has pushed back the reported launch of the new iPhone, however, suggesting that Apple could be preparing a wide release on September 23, although the original rumor of September 16 is also still a viable option.
