    Considering everyone I know with a folding phone has had a fault with the folding part of it - I don’t think its the best idea from a durability standpoint to add yet another folding part.

    If one screen or fold point breaks, you’re now left with two unusable (but perfectly functioning) screens. Seems like an expensive gimmick to me.

      From the moment I saw it, I knew what the problem would be, and surprise! That’s the problem.

      BTW, I’m a musician, not an engineer. If I saw that obvious issue, what is their fucking problem?

        It’s not a problem, it’s a business opportunity. The more they break, the more they can sell you a 2000 dollars phone.

      Mine grew a visible line at the foldy bit that you can see at an angle.

      I like the phone though, just know what you’re getting into.
