I guess that would be my fold 3.
Theres alot of people here that dont have a folding phone but do have alot of strong opinions about them.
Heh. I don't have a particularly strong opinion, but that's because I carry a purse everywhere. I don't need a foldy phone. My "pocket" can hold three bottles of wine so y'know (͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖). It doesn't matter all that much to me if these have a crease or line or divot or whatever jargon y'all are calling it. I think the last time I looked at a foldy phone ad was, um, 2021. No, it may have been 2019. It's been a hot minute is all. I just think they're cool newish tech.
It seems to me that the hinge would be a common point of failure and that the screen might get misaligned after a million flexes, but I haven't actually handled one to see how they're built. I really want to take one apart. That would be fun.
To be fair. I know i replied to your comment but i wasnt specifically aiming that at you. I apologise.
A guy on yourube "jerryrigeverything" does a grwat durability test and teardown of all the foldy phones including the fold 3. I recommend it. The hinge suprisingly is one of the strongest points on these phones.
Oh nothing to apologize for. I figured I should probably elaborate. Thanks for the tip on the video, tho. Those look fun to watch.
