raytracing and upscaling will always go hand in hand because the hardware is far, far, FAAAAAAR from being able to raytrace a whole frame in realtime. Like, really really far.

ue5 doesn't force rt. But the number of games that do mandate rt (ex the latest indiana jones game) is increasing. I flat out can't play those.

I have a gtx 1080. 2025 games are mostly written in unreal 5. Unreal 5 is designed such that not even the highest end gpus can actually run it without framegen. And now also with mandatory raytracing.

Older games still work, and they look and run better for me.

hover on the touch screen? gone

iris scanner, gone

headphone jack? gone

air pressure sensor? gone

humidity sensor? gone

ir blaster, gone

meanwhile I get charged out the ass for storage space.

Why the fuck would I want a newer phone?
