I can actually see the value in a trifold like the one pictured. In your pocket it’s a phone. When you unfold it, it’s an iPad. You’re consolidating devices.
That said, I’m not a fan of folding lcd screen tech used today. It creases. I’d rather see three separate bezel-less screens that magnetically join to make a larger surface.
I see it the same way. I would love a tablet I could fit in my pocket.
Agreed. I have a Tab 9 next to the bed that would be great to not need. That being said, I also use it for sketching plans and as a full PC for VScode-server, and I'm pretty sure a folding phone won't have that modularity with an attached keyboard. Bluetooth keyboard with stand may solve that, though.
