Well, as promised, we are talking foldable this week. The excitement is palpable, and it looks like the rest of our mod team have already started the conversation here. Go check it out.

I honestly don't know very much about foldable phones, so I'll let the rest of our (very smart and knowledgeable) mod team handle this one this week. :)

Last thing for future reference at the end of the week, we also have a great thread discussing foldables here too, go check it out if you want more great discussions.

Neat but currently uninteresting to me

garbage idea. Putting unnecessary wear on screens. They just break too quickly and instead of making phones bigger every year you could start making them smaller again

I am completely apathetic about them. I think they're boring.

They're boring in the US because basically all you have is the Samsung fold and flip. and they haven't really changed since the fold 2 and flip respectively.

Although the pixel fold coming to the US (it may actually already be on) and that looks like an interesting device

Utter garbage. The only thing they seem to solve is that they take half the width of space when folded. Supposedly to carry a full size tablet in your pockets or something. But ok, I never needed that kind of thing
