Foldable Phones

[What Would Jesus Do?]

Do you have one?

Do you want one?

What would it take for you to get one?

What form factor would you prefer?

For me, the crease is a huge turnoff. So that would have to be greatly minimized.

Affordability is important. I'll pay a premium, but not a crazy premium.

It has to have good cameras.

I'd prefer a flip that opens to the size of a small tablet, because it will become my ebook reader.

I miss being able to angrily shut my flip phone when people pissed me off.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

I carried the old-style flip phone for a few years. If all you want is a phone, they worked well and were very reasonably priced.

Plus you could do that Star Trek communicator flip with them. So cool. None of the new foldables let you do that, afaik.

That's pretty cool.

I have a Samsung Z fold 6. Most of the time I use it folded to normal phone size, but when I'm browsing the web, playing games, or looking at pictures the unfolded larger screen is easier for my old eyes.

over the years i've been a sucker for the oddest phone designs ranging from nokia e90 (foldable with keyboard and 2 screens) to blackberry passport (fantastic keyboard/touchpad) and several such in between but the one i miss is the tiny original iphone se. if they could jam current tech into that form factor that would be my preference. hate the quasi tablet types. folding would be ok if it came with some extras (a mechanical keyboard)
