>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)

Eventually somebody will release a smartphone with a battery that lasts for weeks, and the entire current crop of manufacturers will come crashing down.

I laughed until I thought about how heavily cloud/account based settings and content is being pushed.

All we really need is for a big company that isn't Google to make a decent Android fork. One that doesn't lag, where the keyboard doesn't always correct your words to random shit, one where I can scroll up and down and have it actually respond correctly instead of swiping left and right and throwing a shit fit
