does anyone use a modern screen-foldable phone as their regular phone? (sh.itjust.works)

I haven't met anyone yet who does and I haven't read any good endorsements about foldable phones but I keep seeing advertisement for foldable phones.

Thanks

Nice, definitely good to hear all the specifics, thanks.

So a flip opens into a normal size screen, but a fold would open into a double size screen?

Definitely like the idea of a fold also.

Video and comics are big for me, and after hearing it so many times, I'm not as worried about the crease itself.

Is there any big improvement for the six over the three that you have now?

Honestly, it's not a massive difference, the outer screen is a little wider which is a nice improvment, the shape of the phone is better, the cameras are miles better and the processor is better. Otherwise its not a massive jump. But my wife wants my fold 3 so i said i would upgrade to the 6 as i get discounts with my job and she can have my old one.

You'll love the flat and very sturdy design of the new hinges they introduced with the Fold 5. (This is the best phone I've ever had by miles.)

Congrats and enjoy.
