what is the benefit of this i don't get it?

Larger display but still compact in your pocket. It’s just a competitor to the Samsung flip phone

Do those phones sell that well? I held one recently and it doesn't seem very practical for someone that keeps taking their phone out back into their pocket often.

I'm the sort of person that takes it out of my pocket and puts it back a lot. It's not a big deal honestly, it feels good to open and close it.
