Hear me out: Foldable phones might look cool, but they don’t add significant value compared to traditional smartphones. The durability concerns, extra weight, and high costs don’t seem justified for what they offer in terms of functionality.

Do you agree, or do you think foldables are the future of mobile tech? Let’s have a friendly debate!

    I agree about durability and cost concerns, but there’s a pretty clear functionality improvement: size! Especially in today’s world where smartphones have grown to those massive bricks that you can’t even really use comfortably with one hand. I had a flip mobile phone right before the smartphone era, a W980 from Sony, and I loved that thing. Now I have a Pixel 4a and I dread the day that thing breaks, because there’s not much of an alternative in size now. They’ve all grown excessively over the last years.
