I only know one guy who has a folding smartphone. It’s broken now. What a stupid idea.
Wife has one and she loves it.
My wife has a z flip 6 and it works great. She had a 3 previously and never had any issues either
I have the same phone and I love it. So small in my pocket.
Had it for 4 years its the best
I’m on my second, first Fold 3 and now Fold 5. Assuming they continue to gain traction, I don’t know if I’ll ever go back to a non-foldable.
The only issue I’ve had is the internal screen protector (installed in factory by Samsung) started to peel up in the middle/fold crease. Got it replaced for free under warranty.
I’ll probably use this one until it starts to show wear and look into a different brand to get away from Samsung. My current plans are something like a OnePlus Open or Pixel fold and use Lineage or Graphene.
I’ve had mine for about 4 years now, I love it.
I’ve had the inside screen replaced once now under extended warranty. I’d still buy another folding.
Lol, I’m on my second one, neither broke/is broken
It’s not a stupid idea, being able to have a small tablet whenever you need is amazing
It’s the only tablet I actually use instead of just collecting dust within a couple weeks of getting it because it’s never where I am when I need it the most.
I bought a 2 year old refurbished Z Fold 2 two years ago and it’s still going strong. If you treat your device with respect you’ll have no trouble.
It’s a great idea. I have the Motorola razr 2024 and it’s a horizontal hinge like a normal flip phone instead of a vertical one. It’s compact and I can use 100% of the smart phone features without even opening it. It’s the ultra compact smart phone I’ve been searching for for years.
I think it’s a fantastic idea. Wanted one since Samsung showed an S4(?) clamshell.
But they still have too many issues for me. I look forward to when it’s a standard thing, so the OS and apps work correctly.
The ones I’ve seen end up with a big crease in the screen. Not enticing.
This has been solved for a while now at least for Samsung.
Just sold my Samsung galaxy z fold 4. After a year of owning it, it stopped opening completely flat. Went back to my S21 Ultra which is generally just a better device.
Same, lasted about a year and a half at most. Was replaced with non folding.
A Terminator model T-1000 could fold, too.
I actually broke an old school flip phone doing that once lol
I don’t think the person who made the comic has used a foldy phone or used an old school flip phone. The reason we did that with the old school flip phones was because it was easy to do one handed and absent-mindedly, kinda like one of those spinner toy things
You can’t actually get Foldy phones to do that, I’ve tried. I can only get it to close one handed, not open again
