Other iPhone 13 : Your wish list?

Old thread, but that’s a perfect list. 👌 I think we will see ProMotion on the Pros, TouchID integrated into the power button like the iPad Air along with FaceID, and a smaller notch on the 2021 iPhone Pro models.
Im a simpleton, just want a device with no QC or OLED issues out of the box, please and thank you.
if the iPhone 12 mini are not selling well why would apple would want to make a iPhone pro mini?
IT'S A WISH LIST. OP IS ASKING WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE IN A 13. NOT HARD TO GRASP. I'd also like to see flying cars that shoot laser guns in my lifetime, but I'm not holding my breath on that one either.
-USB-C
-full functionality of NFC so that user can for example pair the phone much faster and easier with headphones, digital camera etc. -AOD so just a glance is enough to check if there are any notifications
-fingerprint sensor either under display or side-mounted
-notch should be much much smaller or at least put some minimal bezel

I just want a 90/120hz screen and a that the pro max be 6.8", but not wider, just taller. I feel a different aspect ratio would be quite nice but I might be in the minority.
Also, I hate that the camera bump is glossy on the pro models, the smudge-build up is insane.
TBH I don't care too much about the notch at this point, so if Apple needs to keep it they can. Just give us a little more vertical space by changing the aspect ratio.
I like all the sensors and things they built into the notch, so I'd like to keep all that functionality.
Maybe iris scanner instead of face ID/ fingerprint. Far fetched and might never happened but it should be perfect, keeps the simplicity of faceid but you can still wear masks.

iPhone 12s/13 Mini in the same size with a slightly bigger battery, USB-C instead of lightning, smaller notch, a telephoto lens and LiDAR. All of them should be doable and the last three are rumored to be coming. My 12 Mini is 9/10, add those things and its a perfect phone IMO.
Why? The iPad mini is already 7.9 and the Pro Max already comes close to it in weight. A bigger Pro Max would darn near be the same size as the iPad mini. Just put calling features on the iPad mini and let giant phone lovers have at it.
Wishlist for 13 Mini, in order of importance:
3 or 4 points from above implemented would be enough for me to consider coming back to iPhone. Right now 12 Mini is a somewhat "undercooked" product for me, and the bigger iPhones are just not appealing at all. At least the Mini has a unique form-factor that couldn't be found elsewhere on the market.
- touch id (don't care if under the screen or in power button - need it for outdoors with a mask)
- increased battery life (just make it 1 mm thicker dammit)
- improved digital zoom for camera (like on Pixels) - since apparently optical zoom is a "Pro"-only feature
- ceramic shield on the back as well as on the front (so I can go caseless more comfortably)
- always-on-display (it's often very helpful on Android - I'm sure Apple can offer a superior implementation if they wanted to)
- 90 or 120 hz refresh screen
- costs $100 less
- Matte non-fingerprinty finish on the back

My wishlist for 13 Pro Max
- Reduce weight below 180 grams (I don’t need stainless steel)
- No notch
- Bigger battery
- 120 Hz screen
- Reduce/remove bezel (yep, there’s still some bezel that can be cut) and by this reduce device size so frame shrinks around current 6.7 screen making it slightly easier to handle. Alternatively expand screen to 6.8 or 6.9 if possible within current body.
- Add Touch ID and keep Face ID
- USB C
Yea it seems this will be a S year. So it will be slight improvements to the current 12 models. From the current rumors about the iphone 12 S or iPhone 13. It seems we will just get
- Better 5G functionality
-Better Camera
-120 HZ
-Touch ID on screen
Rumors are saying no USB C so that sucks. Reports say one of the reasons Apple isn't jumping on the USB C train is because it would make the phones less water resistance. I am also hoping that reports are true this years phones won't be port less. I am definitely not ready for port less iphones. Honestly, I still been having an internal debate on whether I should just upgrade now instead of waiting for the S models in the fall. But I think I i will just to be on the safe side lol.

Hell no!!! 😳 don't want my iPhone looking like them candy bar samsung phones 🤮 Love the width on my Pro Max screen, content looks better on a wider display and typing is more enjoyable on a wider display.
First and most of all, an iPhone 13 Mini
It should include
TouchID (don't care if in-display or in the powerbutton)
6GB RAM (future proof for SW, could be the last Mini)
better display quality (no issues like 12 generation)
Maybe a bigger battery, but those 3 above are my main wishes. Not too much I guess.

I somehow forgot to mention this: 128 GB of storage in base models please. It's well overdue.
I think it goes to #2 on the list, right after touch id in order of importance.
