All Of Apple’s Foldable iPhone Prototypes Have Visible Creases, Which May Explain The Company’s Apprehension Towards A Launch
Apple’s design philosophy is all about perfection, which may explain why there is no foldable iPhone launch is due to their visible creases

Apple is leaning into the criticism that all they do is copy Samsung tech. Nobody wants a folding iPhone.
I absolutely do. Look at the Huawei Trifold for an example. It’s overly expensive, and has issues, which is why I wouldn’t get it. But the concept is decent. A phone that unfolds into an incredibly thin tablet. What’s not to like?
I'd rather a simpler phone at this point. I don't think I've ever looked at my phone and felt that it's too small. I can think of other ways that I'd want phones to be more functional, like connecting to external peripherals and a monitor.
Lots of people are excited about folding phones too though, so more power to them if companies are willing to go that way.
I think that it’s for this reason that a folding phone will be better as an iPhone mini or regular model and not a folding ultra. In fact, I don’t know that they’ll bother with calling it anything. It would just be the iPhone fold for 1st gen and it’d probably be in an in between size of pro and regular.
It’s ugly and the fold is noticeable which is distracting when watching videos. Not to mention Huawei is banned in the US
I can't speak for that device in particular, but I've been using a Galaxy Fold for a few years now and the crease is literally nothing. In most cases, you're looking dead on at the phone and you can't see it. If you're outside it becomes slightly more noticeable, but the bright glare from the sun in general makes for more of a problem than the crease. I have no intention of going back to a non-folding device.
Also, Huawei is not banned from being purchased and used by consumers in the US lmao.

I mean sure but you're in for a hell of a ride if it breaks and you need support.
I do want one of those new flip phones. Since normal phones aren't getting any more portable, I'd rather have that than carrying around a brick. For me, the biggest problems with these at the moment are repairability, durability and price. Once those are solved, I will probably get one.
