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.
Owned one, went back to pixel 7 pro afterwards. I liked it a lot and really loved the screen size.
But the screen is really, really fragile and the phone is heavy enough that it’s hard to hold when You’re surfing for more than an hour.
So I could surf on my phone less… Or I could grab a phone that isn’t 450g
