So, in 3 years Apple will catch up to Android phones from a couple of years ago?

Hole-punch display: exists
All screen display: exists
Periscope camera: exists
Folding phone: exists
etc etc.

When will Apple return to leading phone hardware innovation?
But again, I doubt Apple is going to make a foldable iPhone. The Galaxy Fold Z 2 has a lot of problems. And Apple doesn't want those issues. And sometimes you wonder if the Galaxy Fold Z 2 is just just going to snap apart and break. I don’t really trust foldable phones.
 
Apple is never going to release a foldable phone unless folded up it's as thin as an iPhone is today. Foldable phones are a solution in search of a problem.

"Apple is believed to be planning to implement a fingerprint scanner under the display of at least one high-end ‌iPhone‌ in 2023."
LOL

Before Apple was innovative now all the new technology are already present in Xiaomi/Huawei/Samsung devices. Apple lost the game.
That depends. Your mistake was to assume that Apple's goal is to be innovative. Their goal is it to make as much money as possible. And we all know how well that works for them...
 
When a site can't think of anything to post they come up with rumors for products years down the line. SMH. 🙄

Yeah you're right, Apple is no longer innovative. They just make their own processor chips for their own computers to run their own OS that are whopping the assess of other companies (Intel AMD) that have been doing it for years and still haven't mastered it. 🙄

Most strikingly, ‌iPhone‌ 14 Pro models will allegedly see their notch replaced with a punch-hole design, as seen on a number of premium Android devices.

Those punch-hole designs have been used on Android phones for years now and can currently be found on the phones costing around $250, so hardly a premium design element by now. It will already be “the past” in 2022, IMO, by when most Android phones will probably figure out a decent under-screen ID systems. I would expect Apple to come up with something much better by then.
 
Doesn't matter to me what apple comes out with, my strategy is to use whatever phone I have for as long as possible and only upgrade to the latest and greatest when my current phone is at the very end its useful life. I hope and pray my 12ProMax lasts at least 4 more years.
