I'd pay up to 3k if it was quality delivered the experience of a top quality phone and a top quality laptop.

I mean the technology to do this is already here. If apple or samsung wanted to do this... they can.

Right now I use an iphone, but if samsung made a phone that felt like say linux, windows or macos when in laptop mode... I would switch off iphone in a heartbeat.

And i mean it has to feel like macOS. None of that bloat is acceptable. SteamOS actually pulls this off but in a gaming form factor.

I suspect that every single thing you like about macOS is something I consider bloat (or would if that was the only related word I was allowed to use).

My first task on my recently acquired M3 MBP was to remove/hide/disable as much of macOS as I possibly could; only then can I use it as a productive development environment.

I think it really depends on what precisely you mean here. I don't think it's currently possible to get the same performance of my M3 Max MacBook Pro in the form factor of a phone.
