It's an ugly, over-engineered device. Not surprising that a device with so many moving parts is prone to failure. The whole point of smartphones was to reduce visible complexity as much as possible. Steve Jobs' innovation was consistently about removing unnecessary things; keyboards, padding around the edges, ports, hole grid for speakers... On the other hand, this foldable trend appears to be about adding back complexity which yields no benefits... What is the benefit of this foldable screen? There are none! If anything, it will make it easier to drop the phone and the fold looks horrible and it's fragile.
WTF is going on with tech/engineering sector? Everything seems to be getting worse. No common sense.
