    It feels like Phones really don’t have anywhere else to go in terms of meaningful upgrades outside of speed.

      yeah, someone could release an actually useful phone (USB ports, SD cards, hardware switches for everything…) phones could’ve been so amazing, but what we have now is nothing short of useless.

        Even in its current iteration, barring material conditions that disallow me from keeping my foldable phone, I think I’ll keep owning one for the foreseeable future. It truly feels like something new in a sea of black rectangular slabs.

        Bro they are ready. Check out the OnePlus Open. Typing this on my outer-screen now, it’s very comfortable and feels like a normal iPhone closed.

        I bought it second hand and the screens are still flawless. I do not baby my phones. It is currently case-less

        The crease is practically non existent, I constantly get comments on that. I think people are used to how Samsung’s folds have a deep valley crease.

        The cameras are better than the Galaxy S23 Ultra I tried for a couple weeks. Video quality is iPhone level or better

            My fold3 had metal missing from the hinge from dropping it and it still worked pefectly until I sold it 3 years in. You aren’t going to see people making posts about how their fold didn’t break

            You’d really be surprised, I don’t even use cases unless I want magsafe mount-ability in my car. Plenty of drops and abuse

          I want one but the price has kept me away… But its about to be time. I’m not one to upgrade often, I’m still on a galaxy s9 plus, which I love, but the battery is showing its age and the screen has some minor burn in after like I think 6 years of constant use.

            S9 was a great year for Samsung. But yeah that’s getting up there in age lol. Would be in 2nd grade if it were a kid 😂

            Check the used market, mine was $900 mint condition on swappa. I figure the Open 2 is coming out Q1, so I bet the price will drop to <$700 soon

      I can believe why you think that if you use iPhones. Foldables are out here completely changing the game. Apple will make one in 2030 I’m sure
