For me it's definitely the durability concerns. I've valued my phone's water and dust resistance since getting an ip67 phone years and years ago. My brother had a flip and a grain of sand in his pocket got under the display; when he closed the phone the display died. And they expect me to pay more for the privilege.

Nothing at all, I've had two of them =]
- Woah, which; and why so many
  
  Started with the Surface Duo 2, if you count it, and now I'm using the Galaxy Z Fold 4.
  
  I suppose I could also count the LG G8x too, possibly?
  
  So many because my company buys phones for me every couple years and I like the flexibility of the folding screen. I'm convinced that anyone who says they don't want one just hasn't used one yet. It makes such a huge difference to my mobile experience honestly. Games, documents, multitasking, web browsing, media consumption... It's all so much better on a device that folds in half lol.
