Fair enough we all have our point of view, however, I would have thought by now they could have come up with a decent camera (in all lights) but thats me. Carrying a big camera around, or filling my already full pockets with another camera doesn't suit me, but might others. I want my camera on my phone with everything else and I want it to be decent enough to take top shots in all lights. Seems we're still a few years away from that wow.
Other wows, well how about a phone whose battery would last all day with constant use. I've just been on the road around Europe for a month and was constantly having to recharge in a cafe or elsewhere, sometimes twice if I was working off the phone - rubbish. I've heard that it's the same battery on the new 5s as on the 4s, that can't be good with a more powerful processor can it? A solar powered recharge would be a decent wow, or just a battery that lasts all day would get a whispery wow from me. Other silly wows, but thats just me, would be to at least waterproof the thing, or sweat proof it so when i go running the sweat doesn't seep in and knack my phone - as it has done twice now, a screen that doesn't break very easily would also be decent and some default headphones that stay in your ears would also be good. I'm a heavy business user and don't get me wrong I LOVE Apple, especially the laptops, but the iPhone used to be way ahead of the game and I would never have looked elsewhere but others seem to have caught up and Apple isn't responding how it used to in my opinion. Just a very big fan disappointed with the way things are looking post Steve. My 2p worth.
