    Sincere question: Do people actually want foldable phones? I mean, I’m sure at least a handful do, but is there really a market for this?

      I personally don’t. They are flimsy, the technology very error prone, and I have absolutely no need for a display of that size.

      I’m into the concept but not these iterations. I love the new Razor concept but fuck everything about that piece of shit.

      I had one before and am now on a normal phone again but they really are amazing. I think if a day comes where they are on par durability wise with regular smart phones I will definitely go back to a foldable.

      There is definitely market for flip-style foldables as they have the same price and are just more compact (and unique). Tablet-style foldables need more work to get the price down before they become mainstream.
