Not completely related to the foldable iphone(tho im sure it would slap because it would be a good execution of the idea) but its such a shame that apple has to be so bitchy with their software. If theyd just open up the software(or the eu forces them to) i would instantly buy one when custom os's are available. Imagine getting a linux iphone.

Why do you need an iPhone to get a Linux phone?

Similar to how you can buy a recently used MacBook Pro and install linux on it and have a fucking phenomenal device, that other person hopes the same could be done to their phones.

I didn't realize the hardware of an iPhone is superior to hardware of other flagship phones.

It's not necessarily the hardware, rather the build quality sometimes appeals to people (i.e. metal finishes, aesthetic, weight)
