Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is still expensive for some and it would make sense if a more affordable version will be available to this market.

    I’ve got a galaxy fold 4 that I pre-ordered, so over 2 years old. I’ve rocked it this whole time with no case and dropped it plenty of times. It’s got a couple of scratches on the hinge but has been the most solid phone I’ve ever owned. From my experience, your claims are simply not true.

      I had the original 2019 Motorola razr. I treated it like a precious heirloom. The screen started to have pixels die and the touch digitizer went out after 6 months. Kept it in a case and never dropped it.

      I think there are a wide range of outcomes based on the manufacturing process but my experience has soured me on foldables. I’d rather use a mini phone instead. But it seems like the mini phone niche is just as small as the clamshell foldable one so I may have no choice at some point
