What kinda features do you honestly expect? Phones can basically already do everything these days. Of course the most noteable difference is CPU speed but you don’t need a new one for that every year, or do you upgrade your PC as soon as a new CPU or graphics card hit the market?
Larger form factors also means more room for batteries. Granted, larger screens require them, but I think my point stands. I’ve been on the Samsung Note since like the Note 4 (I think). The larger amount of screen real estate is genuinely a welcome upgrade and that’s the whole point of the foldables… it’s the next evolution of the “phablet.”
Chinese ones are literally the thickness of an iPhone, when folded. With bigger batteries too! SiC tech we don’t have in the US yet.
It’s wild how foldables were just weird and cumbersome, and all of a sudden are “ready”. My fold3 was so goofy in retrospect. Me OPO has fooled people into thinking it’s a regular phone when just sitting on a table a few times
I guess if phones turn into all-in-one devices we could need more power, but I haven’t noticed any change in gaming performance for generations of snapdragon. Always locked at 60 fps.

We are “there” with processing power IMO. Form factor is the next evolution. Try a foldable and find out that regular phones are so limiting.
I can legit get work done. Two or three apps comfortably shown. (Teams, tickets, admin console)
I just moved and reading/signing docs on a big screen was so helpful.
navigation with an 8in screen is objectively better. Can even split screen with Spotify or the message thread with whoever I am visiting/meeting.
tripod for taking pics. I use this SO much. Along with selfies using the main cameras
I tried to go from fold 3 to S23U and gave it to my mom after 2 weeks. Right back to foldables with OnePlus Open. Takes even better pics

640Kb should be enough for anyone

I guess efficiency is always welcome
My point was that we cannot predict the future, saying something like;
Will be as incorrect as
It’s just impossible to predict, not only how we will utilize our tools, but also what the consumer wants in 10 years or so.
Besides, narrowing the scope of the device down to “just” gaming is a limited viewpoint.
Ok, What do you foresee us needing to do on our phones that we cannot do now?
