With the iPhone 14 line, Apple decided that $800 isn’t enough to get you the top-of-the-line SoC anymore. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Android world follows Apple’s lead yet again.

Samsung is already focusing more on their Ultra. Maybe the S24 will just be a recycled S23, and only the Ultra will get a performance upgrade.

It’ll be a hard sell for me though. Why would I pay full price for a 2024 8G2 phone instead of buying a 2023 8G2 phone at discount?

Next big evolutions I care about in phones?

• Usable in rain / moisture 👀 One Plus
• Displays that go bright enough to use outdoors.
• 1080p front facing cameras as standard.

Otherwise, don’t talk to me.
