Unless there is some reason for a tactile display other than just for us, I don't see them doing it. It would have to be very cheap to do, or there's no use case for it. There aren't enough of us. But maybe with software? Mary Sent from my iPhone > On Sep 14, 2015, at 8:25 AM, Devin Prater wro

I just think it’s an interesting tradeoff of space. I’d much rather have faster processing or faster networking than speakers but I only use the internal speaker for quick checks of the phone or alerting / alarms that sort of thing. I use the headset or a jawbone jam box almost all the time mu

Other than "because they can", my use case is simply that I don't necessarily want to haul around a Bluetooth speaker or use headsets all the time. I don't use headsets for anything but really serious music listening, or when I am out and about, in public, and using the speaker would be discourt

I have no idea why people want these bulky internal speakers. It’s an interesting request but to me that seems like a waste of space for no gain. If I want to listen to sound on my phone I use a bluetooth speaker or headset or the included headphones not the internal speaker. Wouldn’t a good

I certainly would not see this as an improvement, but it would not at all surprised me if they got rid of the home button next year. It seems like this deal with the force touch method of accessing what we now call the app switcher is a harbinger of the demise of the home button. Let's see if I'

Aside from a breakthrough and battery technology, which has already been mentioned and is not under apples control I don't guess, there is one thing I would love to see Apple do with its phone. That is, do like HTC does and put decent speakers on the phone. I'm not expecting a home theater exper

I've always wondered if the GPS drain was due to getting the coordinates all the time or the constant downloading of data over the cellular internet connection. I guess if there is a GPS app with all the maps included (would be quite large) that would be a good test. I think Navigon was one tha

I agree. It seems that next to video streaming, location services are the biggest culprit of battery drain. Since we don't know for sure, it's hard to say if Seeing Eye is more of a drain than it could be if maps were in local storage as opposed to maintaining a constant connection to their serv
