    Else there simply are no new features, its a mere tweaking of what already exists.

    I agree, it really feels like smartphone development has got derivative and just all about manufacturing obsolescence.

    When is the last time you saw a feature on a new phone that you had to have before your current phone is really ready to bite the dust?! Slight battery, screen and camera improvements are about all you see year over year now.

    I guess we've seen a couple folding phones recently but reviews I've seen make me believe the tech isn't there yet to switch.

    Yep, They purposely hold back improvements to keep stringing people along to buy a new one every year or two. And make it more difficult and expensive for stuff like screen replacements or battery replacements in the hopes you'll just buy a new phone.
