It's time they pumped up that 64gb to 128gb in the base model when almost every other android manufacturer has done so .
I think they should either

1) increase the base storage to 128gb and keep the price at $799

2) decrease the price to $749 and keep the base storage at 64gb

I prefer the latter. What about you ?
Also they should reduce the price per unit storage. Currently 64gb=$50, they should make 128gb=$50 but unlikely.

I want a TouchID option, fix PWM flicker and either of the above options (price cut with 64GB or same price with 128GB base). I want the Mini though so that's $649/64GB or $699/128GB as base.


I wonder why Apple storage is so costly apart from profit reasons. Is NVMe more expensive than UFS?

No. You can buy 1TB NVMe SSDs for ~$100-150. Besides, I do believe the storage controller is part of the Apple SoC and RAM is shared so they really only need to buy just the NAND flash chips.

Of course, the Anobit acquisition cost them half a billion dollars, iirc.

Whether we say underscreen Touch ID OR Power Button Touch ID it’s a necessity in the iPhone 13 as masks will still be worn in certain situations
Hopefully Apple appreciates that not everyone has an AppleWatch to unlock their iPhone

If the next iPhone comes with a 120Hz display and Touch ID I will buy it. I'm getting tired of the 2GB of RAM my 8 has.

Apple would rather consumers buy Apple Watch instead. Why would Apple put a feature that prevents people from buying more Apple products? :D Sad but true.

dude the poll ask:

What feature would you like to see in the next year's non-pro iPhone 13 ?​


Don't need anybody lecturing me how my opinion is wrong. I acknowledge the fact its a solution that was positive to me and a few others. Again the poll ask the readers opinion. Jeeeez.

I didn’t say you were wrong about your personal experience. Jeez

Price drop would be nice, more battery life is always nice, camera improvements are always nice, Touch ID addition would be nice,…

But honestly none of these are deal breakers to me. I don’t care about the notch or promotion or such. I use my phone for calls, text, social media, banking apps, Apple Pay, browsing, taking photos, …

nothing that‘s in dire need of changes

ProMotion would be incredible but realistically Apple always incrementally improves pretty much everything which seems like the right call

I'd rather have a capacitive touch ID on the power button. Under display fingerprint sensors are still not as fast and reliable as capacitive ones.
Capacitatibe touch, or underscreen Touch ID either one would be a winner
