If you are really interested in a folding phone, I have the Microsoft Surface Duo 2 and it’s holding up really well. The 2 screens don’t meet in the middle, but the hinge system is extremely sturdy, and my phone has stood up to lots of drops and fumbles with just one or two scratches. I have the bumper/magnet case, and I have to say, being able to use the Surface pen (the new slim and the classic Surface pen) is so nice. It runs a modified Android with some Microsoft and Office apps built in, and considering I have my entire personal device ecosystem held together through OneDrive, it works out really well to have the Microsoft and Google apps side-by-side.
I have my launch fold 3 and I love it. I’ve dropped.it a few times, mostly from waist height as I sometimes miss my pocket. Last weekend I dropped it from.shoulder height and it landed on the case, well half case as the other half broke a while ago and I never replaced it. It’s still fine. It doesn’t open all the way but I think that’s dirt amd debris that has made its way in and clogged the gears. The only thing holding me back from the fold 5 is the likely price. I had hoped a pixel fold would be somewhat cheaper than a Samsung but oh well. Life has changed a lot for me since I got my phone so affordability is more of a concern now. That’s not to say there’s not lemons that still come out, see the story were commenting on, but from my expierence folding phones are there now.
Yeah. Its.great having a larger display when I want it and having the smaller one for quick messages or whatever. The surface phones were weird and I don’t know what microsoft were thinking.
For me, it basically functions like the dual monitors on my computer. The most useful thing is being able to run two apps side-by-side and not having to switch back and forth constantly.

I legitimately like my Samsung flip. I know people have had issues with them, but mines been great.
