I've listed this article for peer review because I'd like to help it reach GA and FA status.

- I personally don't think we need to re-explain iOS on every single iPhone page. That's why there's an iOS article. At least focus a bit on the major changes made by the OS as introduced on the device, and any features that may be exclusive to that iteration (i.e. Touch ID, the camera stuff).

- The article needs to tell what the phone does and how it functions. In order to do that, it'll need re-explaining. Zach Vega (talk to me) 11:09, 25 September 2013 (UTC)
- Where do you get the idea that we need to explain common smartphone functions on every page? Why don't any of the Android phone articles do that if it's supposed to be that way? We need a standard format for phone articles. ViperSnake151 Talk 17:24, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
- We already have a de facto one (well, for iPhones anyway):
- 1. History - Tell how the phone was developed, the announcement, and production
- 2. Features
- 2.1 Software - Tell how the phone's operating system functions
- 2.2 Design - Tell the phone's outer design
- 2.3 Hardware - Describe the phone's inner hardware and how it functions
- 3. Reception
- 3.1 Critical reception - Reviews of the phone
- 3.2 Commercial reception - How well the phone performs in the market, usually with sales numbers
- 3.3 Other reception - Reception towards anything else that is notable (usually not needed)
- This layout has been fairly consistent since the iPhone 4S in 2011. Zach Vega (talk to me) 23:54, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
