Still waiting for mine to arrive (2 more weeks) but I don't think I'm gonna be blown away or anything, my current phone is 4 years old Note 9. Smartphones have plateaued and are just incremental performance bumps at this time, unless there's a breakthrough in material science (cheap, not easily scratched, no crease, etc) to make folding phones/new form factors mainstream, phones will enter the same phase as desktop computers are currently in since the mid 2000's.
Hell, some people talk about USB-C like it's going to be some big thing when in reality it'll just be faster file transfer, I don't even use my camera that much, so saving a couple of minutes every other month is pretty meh, and my 4 year phone already has USB-C. Maybe if you use your phone's camera a lot it may be a bigger deal.
Next year the phone will have better performance and maybe USB-C, I don't think they'll change the exterior design much since they changed the notch for a cutout this year, they most likely wont ditch it for something different in just a year.
