Notable bits:
Next year, Huawei and Samsung plan to introduce more competitively priced foldable phones, and other Android manufacturers are expected to follow suit, driving accelerated expansion in the foldable phone market.
Recent reports from industry insiders suggest that Huawei’s development of a triple-foldable screen phone is progressing smoothly and may be ready for launch before March next year. It’s expected that two triple-foldable screen phones will be introduced in 2024.
Supply chain sources have also revealed that Samsung is planning to bring foldable phones to the mid-range market next year, further reducing price barriers and making foldable phones more accessible to a broader range of consumers.
Forget those damn foldables. I want that small phones with removable batteries back!
EU’s got you covered. They’ll be a requirement by 2025
Ironically, they might enjoy selling you batteries if they can’t sell you on an entirely new phone.
I wonder how long it will take them to think up another scheme of selling you something extra, too. Perhaps we’ll see a resurgence of those “modular” models that could take pluggable parts.
This is why completely closed technical ecosystems are bad, they eventually reach saturation.
