Foldables are just an expensive compromise between phones and tablets. For the same amount of money you can buy both, a phone and a tablet, which will last a lot longer.

The thing is I don't want to carry 2 devices around and I can't fit a tablet into my trouser pockets.

I'd buy a foldable if they weren't absolute shit in the current state.

It's not a compromise, the folding things really fall apart and look like shit. I'd love it if they worked but it's the 3d glassses tv thing except in phones
