Looks like they may as well have put a sim card in a Nintendo Switch cartridge and called that a phone.

I can't see it gaining any adoption when all the add ons make it a worse phone, it's too bulky to carry around and probably unsupported by most developers.

I'm pretty confident this will end up on top of the increasingly large pile of failed convergent devices, because convergence is a fundamentally flawed idea.

It's the exact same size as a pixel 2 XL, so I have no idea what you mean. A switch is twice the size and thicker too. This isn't actually bigger than a normal phone.
