What would you add to a flagship smart phone that hasn't already been done and is actually possible with the technology available?

The solution here is to vote with your wallet and not pay $1000+ for the latest flagship if you can buy a $300 phone from a couple years ago that's pretty much the same thing.

    I’d add a personal assistant that lives up to the promise. It can make reservations for you, find out when your friends are available, navigate phone trees, etc.

    Find out when your friends are available might be kind of creepy. Unsavoury people knowing that you're away for a week and that your house is empty sounds like a dream for criminals, I also wouldn't want people phoning me saying "I can see you're free tonight, let's do something" or a boss saying, "I can see you're available for overtime this weekend, that's good!". It would also depend on people making their schedules available to the cloud and to make them accurate.

    The make reservations thing could be interesting as could the phone tree navigating, but I wouldn't put these ideas on the same scale as capacitive touchscreens, hd screens, front cameras, fast charging, wireless charging, amoled displays, 3/4/5G, bezeless phones, folding screens etc. Do you see what I'm saying?
