Why have just one additional failure point when you can have two?
I like my phones like my katana: folded one bazillion times for superior durability
For those with Samsung folds (4,5,6) that want a solid phone case that has the ability to just barely stick on a magsafe sticker, look here. I'm in Taiwan but you guys can probably find it in America somewhere. It's a Korean brand.
I have dropped my phone from a moving motorcycle going 45mph and the phone was not damaged. I have used this brand case for 3 Fold generations.
The link goes to a Taiwan's ebay equivalent. No affiliate link. Just wanted to share my experience with a amazing case.
Not working, asks for an account
Can't wait to go full circle (literally) and have a fully flexible scroll phone 📜
Oh I want to open a scroll like that dramatically
You laugh, but there are some OLEDs out there that can do it. Not scaled down to phone size yet, though.
I'm just waiting for someone to make a shirt out of those so I can have sick ass animated designs.

are we gonna get into the more folds = better logic now?
Phone case manufacturers just now figuring out good design for "Traditional" foldy devices
Source? I have a folding phone and every case I've seen or used is super frustrating
Which one? I have a Poetic Spartan for my Pixel 9 pro fold and it's been fantastic, I don't even use the stupid adhesive strips lol

No sane person buys a foldy phone, unless they completely fix the issue of it breaking because it got folded.
There are two types of people
- People who see phone as a tool to get things done, tools should be strong and can withstand wear and tear
- People who see phone as prized possession, they don't mind spending extra effort to ensure phone is treated nicely.
In my experience people who love folding phones have habit of taking care of their phones that no one is sitting on it on the couch, that keys are not in the same pocket as phone, etc etc
Then there are people like me who don't want to bother with taking care of a phone. And we hate folding phones. I like that sometimes my phone is on bed and I am sleeping I don't have to worry about what if i roll onto my phone in my sleep. I know my phone will live.
Who the hell keeps their phone in the same pocket as keys? 😱
Before having wireless earphones I had habit off putting keys with wallet and phone on its own, but since I switched to wireless earbuds they don't fit with large ass phones, so I have to put them with wallet. I already broke one case of earbuds pulling out keys from the pocket that had everything. I switched to keeping my phone and keys in the same pocket.
I've been doing that for almost a decade now and I don't see the value proposition of folding phones yet where I can justify changing my habits again and taking care of yet another tool in my life.
Maybe one day if they had full computer with root privileges in my pocket, I'd consider changing my habits to carry that and make sure it is taken care of.

Pretty soon we're going to be carrying cubes in our pockets
Glad we're finally moving away from the featureless black rectangle era, might even pick up a foldable once the price drops.
Right‽ Lmao, for years:
Everyone: The slab is so boring! Why can't they just innovate!
Wheels are so boring! Why can't they just innovate?!
