Well, as promised, we are talking foldable this week. The excitement is palpable, and it looks like the rest of our mod team have already started the conversation here. Go check it out.

I honestly don't know very much about foldable phones, so I'll let the rest of our (very smart and knowledgeable) mod team handle this one this week. :)

Last thing for future reference at the end of the week, we also have a great thread discussing foldables here too, go check it out if you want more great discussions.

As a woman with tiny pockets I'm considering switching from my (already small) S22 to a Flip-type foldable phone just to not have my phone poke into my hip bone every time I sit down.

same here, but the tech is just too new. the screen cracks, the apps don't use the whole screen all the time, etc. at least, that's according to a friend who's been using a foldable phone for a long time now

It seems like phones just gets bigger and bigger every year...

[–] lorkano@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

well flip phones solve some of those issues, because you can partially use them closed, and they are smaller in the pocket. Folds are bigger though

I miss the day when the Galaxy Note series was considered big and gets desiginated as a phablet, now pretty much every phone is a phablet. And small phones are next to impossible to find nowadays.
