>all phones will shift to AMOLED, with bright white OS, apps and webpages
>higher and higher (AMOLED) pixel counts; 4k, 8k, 25k displays
>every chip from now on will overheat (rendering 6 gorillion pixels every splitsecond is hard work!); every phone will only work for 5 minutes at a time before it self-locks to cool down. consumers are encouraged to have two phones and to switch between them as a means to get around this
>smaller and smaller, non-removable batteries to achieve ever thinner, more 'premium-feeling' builds
>no more microSD slots, have to rely on the cloud
>the OS will become ever more barebones, with even your apps residing on the cloud; every time you even navigate within the app, it uses the internet (that you have to pay for)
>a return to the wild west of random, proprietary connectors, each having their own marketing gimmick with little real world utility (USB-C, USB-G, USB-PCP, USB-LGBQT etc)
