Folding phones are great though. I love mine, absolutely worth the purchase price. It's like a portable mini tablet and great for reading.

Worth the purchase price seems wild to me, but I guess things are all relative, have never owned an iPhone either, partly due to price and partly due to inferiority of software. That said, despite flagship folding phones seeming insanely expensive for what they are, they do seem like good and potentially better physical products than the standard static rectangle.

  • I'm not that price sensitive when it comes to phones, but I open and close my Galaxy Fold several times per day minimum.

    • Ya everyone derives different value from their stuff. Is that how you're judging value for price or just the quality of the folding bit? I do quite like the Galaxy Fold, but I think my needs from any kind of smartphone pretty much could top out at a Pixel 2, rocking a 7 atm.
