I thought it'd be interesting to see what the ideal phone would be for different people on this forum. I'd recommend "thanking" posts that describe phones you like as well. I envision one that would be over-spec'd for modern times in order to future proof it and make it last a long time.
Screen size: between 5" and 5.2"
Phone size: similar size to Galaxy S6, but not a phone with a larger body than that
Back Camera: At least 16 MP, with high quality low-light sensor technology like that found in Samsung or Sony cameras
Front camera: don't really care, but something basic
Processor: (this is where it gets a bit more hypothetical) something that can get up to 2.8 GHz but only when required; typically would run closer to 1.5 GHz - basically, something that could run processor-intensive apps easily but would also have iOS-style performance for most normal activity.
RAM: 6 or 8 GB (for future proofing)
Storage: 64 GB minimum, or 32 GB with expandable storage
Battery: 4,000 mAh minimum
Security: Fingerprint sensor (something like the iPhone's sensor - the S6's sensor is still not terribly reliable), supports encryption without noticeable R/W delays
Cellular Radio: GSM and CDMA radios that can be switched on or off depending on your carrier to conserve battery, LTE-A radio,
Other: QuickCharging 3.0, Both wireless charging standards, shatterproof display (like the new Moto phone), both a regular micro USB and USB-C port, unlocked IR blaster (i.e., programmable, unlike Samsung, more like LG), front-facing speakers, waterproofing (like the Xperia Z3), Samsung Pay (or something like the OpenPay technology I've described), NFC
I think that covers it on the hardware side! On the software side, I'd either like something that gets timely updates, or something that's easy to unlock/root with open source files for all the cool technology. Now, some amazing smartphone manufacturer - please see this and make me my perfect phone!! #wishfulthinking
