I think this sentiment that "guys, we reached peak smartphone - there is nothing we can do" is pure nonsense.
Over the last couple years there were plenty of usfull new features that haven't caught on with mainstream devices but that would benefit lots of people.
LG's second display case, variable Zoom cameras from Sony, ways to use the main camera for selfies like Asus' camera swivel system or Xiaomi's small rear display, toolless sim slots like in older Sony phones, active Stylus support, ... .
Second display is kinda gimmicky. I have zero use cases but happy to hear some.
Better zoom is good but that's not really hardware. Selfies don't impact most of the population but again not really innovation there.
I don't need stylus and most people don't need it. There's plenty gimmicks but I think real innovation is over. Maybe a last few spurts but nothing much.
Move to the next thing.
Biggest thing for me it to completely remove phones.
Smart glasses / contacts. Whatever floating screen.
I think best system would be hearable smart watch and larger battery system with a powerful soc.
All info syncs between the system. You don't actually have the phone out. It houses the power and brains
