    Not in my opinion. I keep them for 5+ years usually.

    Foldable seem like a gimmick to me.

      I’ve got a flagship Samsung device from 2020. The screen has cracked in an unimportant way on the front and over one of the camera housings on the back, but I can’t even tell which camera is affected by it, so I guess I didn’t need that one anyway.

      Hate the camera bumps. Sucks that those became standard.

      I was looking into getting a new phone but it just seems like a waste of money.

      The Huawei devices look good and for a fair price, but I can’t even get them in the USA. So… I guess I keep this?

      The foldable looks kinda useful for reading and in use with a stylus, but they’re so much money… and I bet that thing gets dust in it and scratches easily.

      I have the fold 6 and I absolutely love it! It’s so much easier for people with bad eyesight like me. The screen is big and if you rotate it, apps behave like they are on a tablet
