Never understood the reason of foldable smartphones, like what was their intended usecase?

[โ€“] xavier666@lemm.ee 3 points 8 hours ago

The only usecase for foldables that made sense is that since phones keep on getting bigger, so having a foldable phone would save some pocket space. However, I think phones stopped growing after 6" and foldable phones have been considerably more expensive. People are just more comfortable with a normal "slab" phone.
