i used to be an iphone user before they went to complete bs on their phones, along with the shady politics. Looks like im triggering the fanboys with them defending a product that basically repeats every year and will break in about 1-2 years, huh?.

I did exactly this earlier when I was demoing my z fold to my nephew earlier today, it's really nice to also have extra screen real estate for the extra modifier keys.

.ssh/config and tab autocomplete are how I manage. I do the squinting once if I can help it

I had a fold 3 for 3 years. Swapped to a fold 6 and gave my fold 3 to my wife who had it for a further 2 years before she traded it in for a second hand fold 5. She is an official convert thanks to that fold 3.

I used the fold 6 for a year before they released the 7 which was super slim and had a wider front screen which was my only real issue with the fold series.

Since my contract has "switch up" i can swap my phone every year if i want. So when the wide 8 came out i swapped the 7 for the 8. I suspect i will keep this one for a while as its the form factor i have wanted since the 3.

The fact that i have had multiple was a testament to how useful i find the phone. It was not a statement about their durability. As long as you don't treat your phone like shit, it will last as long as you need it to.

I see people with iphones with cracked from and backs CONSTANTLY. I guarantee that is not a person who should be carrying around a £1000 to £2000 information rectangle. The inner screen of the fold and flip are not to blame for careless people.

There are plenty of fold 3s out in the wild, even fold 2s which were not nearly as durable.

I didnt say you can't throw shade at apple. I don't buy apple products either. But you weren't arguing that apple were a bad company. You were arguing that folding phones are basically tablets. Which they are not.

If you want to talk about how shit apple is. I am not your opponent.
