Have phones gotten any new exciting features in a while?
I remember enjoying upgrading my phone in the aughts and early tens, but it seems like most devices have plateaued and they’re all pretty much the same now.
The exception being foldables, but I’m not really sure that’s something I want or would use fully.
I’ve got a flagship Samsung device from 2020. The screen has cracked in an unimportant way on the front and over one of the camera housings on the back, but I can’t even tell which camera is affected by it, so I guess I didn’t need that one anyway.
Hate the camera bumps. Sucks that those became standard.
I was looking into getting a new phone but it just seems like a waste of money.
The Huawei devices look good and for a fair price, but I can’t even get them in the USA. So… I guess I keep this?
The foldable looks kinda useful for reading and in use with a stylus, but they’re so much money… and I bet that thing gets dust in it and scratches easily.
I have the fold 6 and I absolutely love it! It’s so much easier for people with bad eyesight like me. The screen is big and if you rotate it, apps behave like they are on a tablet

Not in my opinion. I keep them for 5+ years usually.
Foldable seem like a gimmick to me.

You mean lost features? Remember when headphone jacks, microSD, & dual SIM were normal?
