I don't see myself buying one either. I much prefer the current form factor.

To me the folding thing is nothing more than a gimmick to try to get people to shell out even more money for a phone. I would much rather go with something on the higher end of the low-end, think around 400.00 or less and have money for a laptop. I don't see the point of spending as much money on a fucking phone as you would a decent laptop. Makes no sense.

For many (most?) people, a phone gets a lot more use than a laptop

Flip phone is stupid, but a folding phone like the Galaxy Fold actually makes total sense. Bigger screen like a small tablet, while still able to easily fit in your pocket.
