Is there anything that only the rich can currently afford but that everyone will have in the future? (lemmy.one)

When the very first cars were built, only the rich could afford it, but now a large part of the population (in developed countries) has one or more.

What do you think will be such an evolution in the future?

Once the crease is gone in the middle…

Once the price drops, I’d love to have a phone that unfolds into a tablet, and can then be docked to a monitor and run a full desktop OS.

All that tech is here with the galaxy flip, but the desktop OS, I’ve read is still lacking.

Yeah I agree they look really cool but the durability and wear-and-tear seem to be pretty subpar. I'm not one of those people who goes and buys smartphones every 1 - 2 years, so if I get a phone I'd quite like for it to last me a while.
