In Youtuber’s hand-folding test (live stream), the Razr Plus broke after 126,364 folds (hinge gave up after ~44k folds) while the Z Flip survived 273,316 folds (but lost ability to stay fully open after 223,000 folds) and is still going right now in the live stream.

    Anyone else not all that interested in this folding gimmick?

      I absolutely love the flip. Much more comfortable in my pocket. And I like the student angles you can have it in for photography, watching videos, or reading.

      Cool idea, but not worth the cost and breakability to me.

      Maybe in a few years.

      I broke enough Nintendo DSes in my day to know this is a stupid idea.

        The Nintendo DS being the second highest selling console ever begs to differ

          Not shitting on the DS. Just the hinges. Don’t want to relive that at a $700 price point.

          It’s only the second highest because they kept breaking the hinges on them
