Back in January, as the world awaited news on the Switch 2, Lego jumped in and teased a collaboration with Nintendo that would bring the classic Game Boy console back to life in brick form.

But others have been far more nebulous — remember 15 years ago when “phablets” suddenly descended upon us, but no one quite seemed to agree on where to draw the line between those and regular smartphones?
