Either is better than a 7” inch phone like the Pro Max. But I don’t know how reliable the flip form factor is yet.
I had the first gen razer before my current mini and it stopped working after about 6 months of use. It just stopped reading touch input after flipping it shut one day.
I love the idea of it but I have to agree, it's just less repairable and causes even more e-waste. Smartphone advancement is at a point where we could easily be using the same device for at least 8 years, but not if they come with planned obsolescence as a feature.
I have the Samsung foldable (flip 4). It's a nice gimmic, but does apple really want to force app developers to support yet another form factor? That's supposedly one of the draws of apple development: you don't have to support every random screen size made by some third party.
