    Spec bumps are pretty irrelevant now anyways. Phones are currently in the land of diminishing returns for performance. They’ve been ‘fast enough’ for some time now, and the only thing that breaks them is software, not hardware. Newer hardware is marginally more efficient, so that’s the only real world benefit.

    I miss the old days of android where they were trying all manner of wild ideas. I want variety where one company has an eink screen protector. Put a laser pointer on a phone because… Because. Where are the projector phones? Maybe some crazy transformer phone with modules that all clip together to turn into a robot. Sure, they never sold well, but they were cool to see.
