  It’s pretty cool, but that phone is pretty fragile as a result, not to mention it’s twice the price of your typical flagship phone, and I don’t know if things have improved to the point of actual usability yet, so… I’ll probably wait a few more years.

    1. My primary point was regarding uniqueness. It’s a unique design, for sure.
    2. “is pretty fragile” isn’t really something I think about for my phones; It’s not like I’m throwing them across the room or such - It doesn’t have to be a tank, just survive daily use (it does). The only real “fragility” thing that crosses my mind is that I avoid leaving it open when I sit it down and walk away from it… but I think about similar stuff with any phone. I don’t leave a regular phone sitting unattended on the couch, where it could be sat on for example.

    All of that said … The folding devices are more durable than you’d think. 3. The price is a bit of a point of frustration for some, sure. But for anyone who can afford it, it’s rather moot in the context of uniqueness/usability.

    As someone who has had a Galaxy Z Fold 4 for about 14 months, it has no scratches or blemishes on either screen - inner or outer. It’s definitely at the point of usability, and I can’t see myself being comfortable going back to a normal phone at this point.
