Foldable smartphones have reached their fifth major generation, as heralded by Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Fold 5…
For me it’s definitely the durability concerns. I’ve valued my phone’s water and dust resistance since getting an ip67 phone years and years ago. My brother had a flip and a grain of sand in his pocket got under the display; when he closed the phone the display died. And they expect me to pay more for the privilege.
Started with the Surface Duo 2, if you count it, and now I’m using the Galaxy Z Fold 4.
I suppose I could also count the LG G8x too, possibly?
So many because my company buys phones for me every couple years and I like the flexibility of the folding screen. I’m convinced that anyone who says they don’t want one just hasn’t used one yet. It makes such a huge difference to my mobile experience honestly. Games, documents, multitasking, web browsing, media consumption… It’s all so much better on a device that folds in half lol.
