Seems like foldable phones are taking over (e.g. Motorola Razr making waves) and only Apple is missing an entry in this form factor now. Almost everyone who can afford one swears by it with the exception of weak build quality.
What do you think? Anyone has one?
Personally, I’m betting on rolling screens (like Oppo X 2021) which seems like the most convenient take.
Phones were already too expensive and prone to breaking without introducing foldables, so I don’t see the appeal. If it wasn’t so slow and expensive, I think I would have considered the original surface duo, as I prefer durability over a seamless screen. The new one with the camera bump, I don’t like the look of.
Why do you think they are too expensive? I’m of a blief that phones are already extensions of ours and at 1000 USD it’s still an absolute steal for the value it provides.
They might be cheaper elsewhere in the world, but here in Denmark, a Surface Duo 2 costs over 13k DKK, which is 2½ times as much as I paid for my Samsung S22 - and that was for a bundle including a Galaxy A8 tablet. I don’t feel like I would get enough extra usability to justify that cost difference, and I would be too afraid of breaking it.
