i'm the opposite way. i see no use for a phone that folds in half. i like my phones to be usable one-handed, and having a clamshell shape that folds out into something i can't reach my thumb over is just dumb. but if i can have a normalish candybar phone that unfolds into a whole-ass tablet in my pocket? absolutely.

...but not for $2500. maybe for like... $1000. that's twice what i paid for my last phone.

Eventually they‘ll go full circle (literally) and come back to scrolls.

the only advantage i can think of is to maintain more traditional tablet aspect ratios. single fold phones tend to have a very square screen when opened.

I see your three and raise you seven.

As long as it wasn't too cumbersome as a phone, the option to have a full on tablet that could fit in your pocket is somewhat attractive. I don't have much use for a phone that folds into a bigger phone (current foldable market), but if this was done right I could see some appeal.

I'll be releasing 15 fold shortly, hold on to yo butts!

Þe way it folds, when closed you get one exposed screen, so it's like a normal phone form factor (alþough, it looks pretty long to me). When open, it's a tablet wiþ a bigger, more normal-sized, tablet screen þan þe truncated bifolds.

Apparently, enough people want foldables þat Apple decided to release one - or were you asking why anyone would want a larger screen?
