Once they are cheaper and more durable I'll buy one. Its still a new form factor that hasn't been perfected yet, but that doesn't mean its wrong for manufacturers to keep at it

I'm waiting for them to find a better spot on durability, weight /bulkiness and hardware like cameras.

They're still too big and bulky for me, the other components are usually a bit behind, and the screen durability seems a bit too eeh still.

Which is to say, I'm interested in one, but they're not there yet for me.
