I guess it comes rather down to question whether buying a new X100V now if a successor is going to be released in the next couple of weeks. If this would be a possibility, I might also rather wait for a possible announcement and decide afterwards, which camera to buy.

Personally I can mostly think about IBIS as a big improvement, combined with a new sensor and processing engine. Ma be even a silent linear AF motor, as I think the one on the X100V is quite noisy indeed. Besides that I agree, the V is a phantastic camera and I doubt I'd make the switch even if all those features would be included. In the end it also comes down to pricing and availability.

Any successor is going to be expensive and hard to obtain, l can't see ibis myself, it would make the camera bigger and heavier, which goes against the ethos of the X100 series.
