Back in 2021 I bought into, literally, the new world of folding phones with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3.  I wrote quite a bit about that phone here.  A phone that was a tall but narrow brick of a phone but then unfolded to turn into a small tablet.  The compromises were real, but it felt like the path to the future of mobile devices.  While I still believe that these kinds of folding devices do have a future, the persistent durability questions around the complex construction, fragile displays, and moving parts has led to a very bumpy road. And after 3 broken devices in 3 years, it is a train I am hopping off of, for now.
