  • My Fold 2 held up 2.5 years but the screen is starting to develop cracks at the hinge.
    Still works, but I can see the cracks growing weekly, only a matter of time until they’re too visible.
    Replacing the screen is just too expensive, together with a new battery I’d look at the price of a new decent normal phone.

    The huge screen is nice every once in a while, but I don’t do enough with my phone to justify the price.
    Was a neat experience of the “future”, but the next phone is going to be a normal smartphone. Better battery life, will do the job just fine, lasts longer and cheaper.

    No hard feeling towards foldables either, I knew they were expensive.
    Also no surprise that folding something 10.000 times (conservative 10x a day for 1000 days) isn’t going to last forever.
    Maybe they’ll find some magical solution for that, but I don’t think they will anytime soon.
