Ive been excited to see folding phone screens for a few years now, but I’m reminded of the horrible creases that form over time (at least in the Samsung models I’ve seen).

Are there any folding phones on the market now that don’t have this issue? Any that are worth the price?

    I want a flip phone so bad. But I’m going to give them a few more years. I also like phones that last more than 2 years.

      I’m with you. I’m waiting for these companies to flesh out the kinks and hope Google makes a Pixel flip in the near future.

      Yeah that’s my issue these phones are really expensive to repair and then even if you have the money sometimes the parts aren’t available. You go to the Samsung or folding subreddits and it’s filled with people that are having major frustrations.

      That enough the phones have become so burdened by planned obsolescence and repair issues.

      I actually like what LG was doing with the dual screen case. Obviously that’s not an option going forward but the v60 is still a great bargain today at like 200 bucks. It’s on Android 13, worth it alone as standalone music player
