    A universal back gesture doesn’t make any sense. Windows Phone had a dedicated back button. Which was a mistake. There are many situations where there isn’t a logical “back”. It should only be available when it makes sense.

    Only your imagination could limit how good it could get. There are always advances in technology. Eventually come become a personal transporter device. 🖖🏼

      I will say that when I had my Google pixels, I had split screen multitasking I barely ever used it. Here’s why: it made both apps very small, and almost unusable unfortunately. Just food for thought.

    i think the physical iphone is basically stagnated at this point. add slightly better cameras, a slightly faster chip, maybe increase battery life every year. that’s the new iphone. the more drastic changes will have to come in terms of ios.

    i suspect this means artificial limitations in the future, to edge you towards getting the new model though, which is kind of annoying

    A lot better, it needs a better battery life, and a better autocorrect(this won’t ever happen, I want to switch to Android because if I have to take a minute to fix the dumb autocorrect one more time I will rage.), the CPU and GPU are still too weak, and Apple is cheap with RAM still to this day. There are hundreds of other reasons like why can an ipad play Divinity Original Sin 2 and other iPad-only games while an iPhone cannot. I can’t move to Android because the GPS is trash. Google Maps is a travesty! Until Google actually grows a brain I am stuck with trash Apple.

    Once solid state batteries replace lithium ions in standard electronics, I’m pretty sure we’ll see a skyrocketing battery life

    Solid state batteries ( better longevity, better handle on extreme low or high temperatures, 2.5x the energy per square, so the battery can be smaller with larger autonomy then the current ones ).

    Notch / Dynamic Island hardware also needs to go under the screen.

    There’s a lot to improve :)

    I’d like it to be foldable. Have it open to he size of an iPad mini. I’d buy one in an Instant. At least it would be different.
