Other Create your ideal iPhone

[wave84]

As the title says... given the available technology, what would be your ideal iPhone? One that already exists, or a custom combination of the current ones?

Here's mine:

- 5'8 display size with flat edges, somewhere between the Mini and the normal size
- aluminium or polycarbonate frame, aiming for as light as possible, 150 grams maximum. Maybe no glass back to save weight, even if it means losing the wireless charging
- pro features including all the cameras and 120hz display
- usb-c
- no faceID, would prefer a tiny notch/cutout for the selfie cam and gain all the extra screen space. For security, just have simple camera based face recognition, or a password daily unlock or something, or just handle it like all the iPhones before touchID. No one has access to my phone anyway. I've spent years of finger/face unlocking my iphone for no benefit, the whole system just seems overkill for a lot of people.
- the last one is a pipedream: no camera bump, iphone 5 style, but physics probably make that impossible for now.

The iPhone 5 in Pro Max size. That's it, that's all I want.

I like yours. Let's go with that one.

I'm fine with the design now, but would prefer USB-C for better transfer speeds. That's it. The notch or Dynamic Island doesn't bother me. FaceID is fine, but an under glass TouchID would be cool. Other than that, it's fine. They've pretty much reached the pinnacle of physical design because either the side will be flat or curved. No one is making a triangle or circle phone. I also don't think a foldable display is what Apple is going to do anytime soon. Maybe a flush camera is as far as they can take it.
