    No, thanks. Foldable screens look shit. The middle part looks like cheap screen protectors used to look like and the rounded edges of screens on Android smartphones bleed backlight (how‘s that even possible with OLEDs?) like hell. Also, there‘s inevitably going to be dust and other stuff collecting in the mechanical parts. Leave all that to Android fanboys who consider foldables a great innovation.

      Have y’all seen an old iPhone display? It looks terrible. It’s pixelated and has this sort of holographic shimmer to it from the crappy glare and screen overlay. Anyways, all that to say that we have to start somewhere. Foldable phones are definitely cool and useful. The problem has been we haven’t had many useful types of foldable phones. I’d trust Apple to get the implementation right and make it feel comfortable and cool to flip between regular and folded.

      I was thinking the same before I tried one on store.

      I like Samsung’s foldable there, it’s like tablet, but you don’t need to open it when you want to use it because it has another screen on back side!

      I want something like that to be my next phone.
