Folding phones are the most fragile, least repairable, most expensive phones ever made.

    The worst thing to happen was the huge 6’ screen. I just want a small phone with doesn’t rip my jean’s pockets and easy to handle with one hand.

      Aren’t there plenty of those? They’re just not flagship models.

        I invite you to actually check, there’s actually nothing modern below 6 inches, except those gimmicky 3" screen phones you can find on temu and such

      Your 6’ phone would look enormous next to an 18" replica of stonehenge

      A six foot screen will always rip your jeans unless you are a T-Rex.
