The iPhone was a one-in-a-generation product that upended an industry. Yet I see 10 products being compared to it a week.

It may sound cynical to people here, but in the long-run, you'll do a lot better thinking "this is probably not the next iPhone" than having FOMO that every second tech company might be the next Apple.
