Foldable phones: who should wait

Foldables improved crease visibility and hinge durability, yet repair costs and bulk still push many buyers to wait another cycle. Inner screens are brighter for media; outer covers are finally usable for full apps. Software continuity—open a map folded, continue unfolded—decides daily delight. If you live in slides and multitasking, the form factor can earn its premium. If you mainly chat and camera, a slim slab still wins on pocket comfort and price.
