Have any recommendations for cheap foldables?
You can either have cheap or foldable. Both won't work.
People who want a foldable are at peace with it randomly becoming unusable. People who buy cheap phones are not.

You can get a Z Flip 3 for like $300 on eBay.
That's only cheap if you don't consider how long it will survive and the replacement/repair cost. A slab phone with no moving parts will last much longer than a foldable making the $/year cost much lower.
I can’t wait until my device and destructively scan, then re-print objects, so fast and effortlessly that I can have a folding phone that is my card carrier too. I just swipe the icon for my debit card, the thing materializes at full speed feeling exactly like Im pulling it out of a billfold, then when I push it back in it just gets chewed up again.
No I meant the ones that turn into tablets. I'm fine with my Z Fold 3 for the next 5 years or so. Was just curious to see if there were any cheap options on the scene yet.
