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.
have you seen the new foldables? i had the flip 3 and have had a flip 5 for almost a year now, and if you use dark mode the hinge isn't noticeable at all. plus with the amount of time i end up using my phone half folded, the question isn't whether i'm sticking with android, it's rather who's making the best foldables, because i'm not going back.
If they don’t ever bring back the iPhone mini, I hope we get an iPhone clamshell that folds down into a more compact phone, with an Apple Watch-esque outer display.
