One of the aspects holding back the Android OS from achieving the same sort of mind blowing success as the iPhone is the hardware that it's sold on. Apple is notorious for selling not so much a look, but rather a brand, or their phone's sex appeal (lean, shiny, everything integrated, end customer experience). Now, while it's a fact that multiple companies are making different phones to run Android, while Apple only has one latest generation phone at a time, this will mean Android has to be compatible with much more hardware and can have less of a focus on the end user experience. Unfortunately, this may hurt Android (as it has hurt Microsoft, who though has astronomically outdone Apple in revenue, is widely acknowledged as making subpar products (Vista, IE, WinMo, etc. etc. *with a few exceptions of course*)). Thus, without a doubt a single phone will rise above the others, be the most widely adopted, and thus become the standard. Therefore, my question is, in this ideal phone, what would you like to see in the future (hardware wise).
