Too many features makes the phone confusing

[SeanR1]

Would rather have a phone with "too many features" (I don't believe there is such a thing if the interface is done right) than a phone that simply does processor/ram upgrades every year and introduces old technology as if its new.

Not to mention the continued use of their own connector when the rest of the world follows a standard. Further recently changing this connector to break compatibility, corner a generated conversion adapter market and offer ZERO benefit over the old form factor.

But.....you get a really cool apple logo......and a STICKER!!!!!!

Wouldn't be surprised one bit if they did that.

And, worse, wouldn't be surprised one bit if it got people to upgrade/buy.

Not I. They got me with the 4S and Siri. Fool me once and all that...

iPhone 5S to have one killer software feature:

What will it be? Fingerprint sensor?

"Morgan Stanley analyst Katy Huberty may be a bit more reliable of a source, because she has recently met with Apple CFO Peter Oppenheimer. Huberty is saying that "Apple will surprise this year" with "a killer feature that drives consumers increasingly to the platform”. She said that the feature would start on the iPhone 5S, but made it clear that whatever the improvement, it would be a software feature, because it would increase "the value of those 500 million [Apple] accounts.""

This is interesting and seems to be historically accurate as the 4s had a killer feature at the time which was Siri. At least that was their sales strategy.

That's like saying the iphone5s will be better than the iphone5. It sounds reasonable because we believe Apple will definitely need a main selling point (beyond the obligatory processor and camera improvement), so such a prediction likely has a very high chance of being correct.
