Remember “phablets”; almost all smartphones eventually turned into phablets.
Which is, arguably, for the worse. I miss smaller 16:9 devices I could use one-handed and reach all the corners of. Almost cried when I had to give up my OnePlus 3 and everything now is an unwieldy, tall-skinny rectangle.
I’ve not had a hands-on experience with foldables yet, but the reviews I’ve read imply they still seem too fragile for the price.
I am not arguing for or against a given form factor, I personally like big screens, but I would only be happy for there to be offerings and more competition.
I am just saying that it’s not completely unreasonable to speculate that in the future almost all smartphone will use the foldable format.
Oh, yeah, the speculation is not unreasonable. I just don’t know if that’s necessarily a good thing (unless there’s a huge leap in durability preceding that).
I’m already rocking the foldable I like, anyway lol:

Cool device, what is the model?
Cat S22 Flip. Sadly discontinued as well as the manufacturer (Bullit) out the phone business.
