    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.

    Uh, a more robust file management system, separate volume controls for various uses (media, calls, alarm, etc), more cohesive Notifications, and faster Charging speeds. I’m sure there’s more but that’s just off the top of my head.

    It’s a hard question to answer because you just don’t know where technology might go next. A couple decades ago, you might have asked how much better flip phones can get, and here we are today…

    Personally, one of my dreams is a phone that I can stretch to become bigger if I need the screen size, and then I can just squish/fold/whatever it back down to fit in my pocket. Maybe through some magic, we’ll get full frame camera sensors in phones? Long-distance wireless charging? And of course there’s silicon improvements—it would be pretty cool to have the equivalent of a i9 14900k and a 4090 in your pocket.

    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. 🖖🏼

    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 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.

    Two apps side by side. A back button. A close all apps button or option.

    I just switched from a Samsung s9+ to the iPhone 15 pro max. It’s only been a week. Love the phone but those 3 features are really missed right now
