Asking a legit question, and curious what folks thoughts are. Phones with a hinge that bend and fold, we’ve had them for several years now.
However, they haven’t reached much market share, and aren’t expected to be that popular over the next five years.

Is the folding phone done?

    @SomeGadgetGuy@techhub.social wow, the market share is lower than I thought.

    As a fan of Fold devices, the only reason I don’t have one is the price. It should cost in parity with the current Ultras, Pro Maxs and Pro XLs. (and I say this who primarily uses “A” devices and finds even the base flagships too expensive)

    The best comparison considering the Market Share would be the that with Linux.

    Same enthusiastic ideologies but don’t have the populous momentum

    I am still not sold on the Flip versions tho. ;)

      @mountdiscovery@twit.social LOL even Linux share would be generous. Right now they’re still under Chromebook market share…

        @SomeGadgetGuy@techhub.social haha

        I initially thought about comparing them to PC builders because most opt for laptops or Pre-Builts or All-In Ones

        But the market is similar to that of HEDTs
