After reading this I googled it and what I read didn't sound super exciting. Just the regular spec bump and I'm skeptical of the reported RAM increase. Wouldn't be surprised if they cut RAM like everybody else. So unless you want a Ultra level model in a base level enclosure, I don't see what the "far more interesting device" is.
I could get somewhat excited if someone made a Xperia Play type phone with a full FEX-enabled Steam client.
I'm sure all of it could be in flux because of the cost issues right now, but DDR6 RAM, UFS 5.0, the new Snapdragon model on a more efficient node, rumors of finally increasing battery capacity, finally upgrading at least some of the camera hardware, and actual mag safe support at least is a more exciting list of changes and some nice future proofing bumps than "here's the same phone again with more AI". If even half of these make it in it'll still be a mode interesting phone than the last few years
