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.
Yeah, the price is definitely the big issue with those for me. I love the form factor (especially the ones that look like the flip phones of old), but I’m not paying triple what a regular phone with similar specs would be just for that.
