what the fuck is the point of these

cheap to manufacture and goyim willing to pay high price.

I don't get the ones that turn into tablets but I'd definitely get one of those that flip into a smaller one to make it more pocketable

phœn but tablæt

I don't get the flipables in turn.

I'm of the belief that a portable device should aim to be as portable as possible, folding provides more portability and a form of protection in the form of the screen not being exposed when in transport. I don't really understand why you'd want a tablet unless you draw because any task besides it is better suited by a phone or a laptop

Alright, I can understand that. For me the foldables that unfold into a tablet make sense because they provide new functionality, i.e. 2x larger screen while still being relatively pocketable. Flip phones just become smoler.

Fair, I just don't see a scenario where a bigger screen but no actual keyboard is useful besides drawing. Pocketability has been an issue for some time, I can fit a modern phone in my trackpants but there's some places like restaurants where they're not allowed, so my choices become either have the phone stick out of my formal pants or give it to my girlfriend to put on her purse, and have to wait for her to find it there on the event I get an important call

My dad got into buying stupid gizmos to cope with my mom dying, that's who it's for.

I'm impressed that your dad could have that much market impact.

Novelty

I had the Flip 3 and found that it's better to have a longer but thinner slab in your pocket than a smaller, thicker one. I returned it and shamed myself for consooming.

same as with

>glass front instead of plastic front which you protect with a glass screen protector like somebody with an actual real brain in their head

>glass back

>physical buttons

>no wireless charging

it's all planned obsolescence. rarely, but sometimes, I'm still using a phone that was released in 2011. it makes so many people rage that it lasted, it's been probably the best phone i've ever seen. nothing but envy from day 1. envy that i had the money for it, envy that it had a stylus, envy that it had a bigger screen (got laughed at constantly 10 years ago) and nowadays envy that it still works.

companies hate happy customers. their goal is a happy shareholder, not a happy customer in the 21st century. i have no need to buy another phone and that thing there in the op, will definitely be broken after at least half a decade. like all other flip phones. or do you still see siemens flip phones somewhere? or those from motorola that weren't razrs? exactly, flimsy shit, even without a fucking touch screen. destined to fail.

>reached the limit where you can make the phone better

>have to resort to gimmicks to justify the purchase

>physical buttons

>no wireless charging

Are you seriously complaining about an actually useful feature and complaining about the lack of something as stupid as wireless charging? Also you do realize glass backs are only a thing because you can't do wireless charging with a metal back and most people complain about plastic feeling cheap, right?
