It feels like every few months there's a new tech "revolution" being hyped up as the future. Besides AI, what’s the most overhyped trend in tech right now? For me, it’s the constant buzz around the metaverse.

I think the phone industry is trying very hard to look interesting but it's been a while since anybody cared? Or is it really just me?

I feel the same. I think they got to a point where there's nothing else left to improve, no interesting features to add.

The only feature I am really looking forward to is the return of removable batteries.

Answering from my Fairphone 3 & its brand new battery 😎

The improvement on cameras is nice though, but I think it's been nice enough for anyone for a while and people are just comparing color balance now.

Unfortunately, Fairphone is not available in my country. I'd buy it in a heartbeat if it was :(

I just looked. Do they not ship to the U.S.?

It's now just pure hype and keeping up with the Joneses.

It's more jjust a lackof reporting. If Apple came out with something new people would lose their minds. But if some no name Chinese company does it, no one cares.

What kind of innovation do you have in mind?
