Smartphone manufacturers still want to make foldables a thing::Foldables are barely 1% of the market, but that's not stopping anyone but Apple.

I still haven't seen a legitimate use case for a flip phone that is 100% screen on the inside.

Takes up less pocket space and the primary screen is more protected.

You're talking about the non-book style ones like the Motorola ones? Yea I have no fuckin clue either lmao, they're cool and maybe has some "reliving the old days" going for it, but beyond that they seem pointless.

Book style ones like the Pixel Fold OTOH are amazing!

I had a Galaxy Flip because I liked the compact size when it was closed, fit really nice in my jeans. Totally useless otherwise though and after the included screen protector cracked, replaced and cracked again I gave it up.
