You're fine.
As for your question, probably MIMO. (MIMO is different - we've had it for years. It's good if you have a large house to cover, or 3 floors, or something like that. If you're on one floor of a 1200 sq. ft. house, it wouldn't make any difference, and I wouldn't pay more for a model that has MIMI over the same model that doesn't.
Rumored phones? I haven't heard of any yet, except for the Fold (which is probably going to be "left on the cutting room floor).
Also, if you're thinking of getting a new AX router, read
https://www.pcworld.com/article/3269...dvantages.html, the "The risks for early adopters" section at the bottom. You might get a router today that doesn't end up meeting the final standards, and with no way to update it except to buy another router.
