Necessary improvements for the next iPHONE

As we have seen throughout the last few years advancements in mobile phone technology has gotten stronger and stronger as time passes. It wasn’t that long ago when we were all playing snake on that old Nokia with the ring tone we all know and love. But when 2007 hit and Apple announced the iPHONE the mobile phone market really began to take off with competitors trying to overcome the iPHONES benchmark for years to come. Now I feel that benchmark has finally been overcome by the recently just announced Samsung Galaxy S3, but before you go to read another article please note this is not about how the Galaxy S3 is better that the iPHONE 4S but what Apple need to do next to retain the title as kings of the mobile phone industry.

1 – A bigger screen. Without a doubt this is the most rumoured improvement to the next iPHONE. Competitors have been showing off screens from up to five inches for a while now where as Apple has stood by the three and a half inch display. Apple may want to stick by there three and a half inch displays but competitors and customer pressures may entice them to make this change which many others including myself would like to see.

2- The interface on devices- The iPHONE interface is great, there is no doubt about it. But we are all so use to it, there’s nothing fresh about it. Take Windows Phone for example with its vibrant colourful interface and the Android interface which although are slightly different from each device to another it is basically the same thing. In order to create more interest and especially get Android fans over to the iPHONE side a new unique interface is required.

3- A new accessory. This is a big one. If Apple could pull off a new unique accessory which you could buy along side your iPHONE ( such as a wireless charging system which we have seen from the Galaxy S3) then Apple would not only be rolling around in cash for the next year but also have a unique quality which can attract new customers. Perhaps a dock which can charge you iPHONE wirelessly as well as play music and do all sorts of tasks?

It’s safe to say there is not a lot wrong with the current iPHONE but in order to achieve Steve Jobs wish of destroying Android then some new features have to be added to the next upgrade.
