I like them personally and am planning to get Apple’s offering.
You make a lot of design tradeoffs to get access to a folding large screen. Yes it’s soft, you need to keep sand away from it, etc. However, it’s just… really nice for web browsing and media consumption especially in the Apple aspect ratio.
But durability really isn’t the killer people say it is. One doesn’t just buy the phone, you are supposed to get the first party AppleCare/SamsungCare so you get it replaced for no additional cost if the hardware fails.
Yes it’s kind of a shitload of money. No it’s not really “worth it” for most people. But if it’s in the disposable income budget, and it makes your day about 1% less depressing, I mean get what you like.

So they invented an even more fragile phone to basically force you to get their warranty subscription on top of the $2000 price tag? That just sounds like some late capitalism enshittification.
