1 year agoIt all comes down to the gimmick not being worth an additional thousand euros to the price of my phone.
I don’t think durability would be a problem for me as I already baby my glass back device and I haven’t been using screen protectors for years with no problem. The downgrade in cameras isn’t that big of a deal for me as most pictures I take are macro, and as it turns out phones nowadays are horrendous dogshit at it anyway.
I think I’d enjoy the gimmick, I used to own a flip phone as a teenager, it’s just not worth a thousand euros extra. I’d probably add another 150 or 200 euros to my pixel to buy a folding phone.
Time to use a different app. Podcast Republic has served me well over the years. Keep in mind I use a proxy adblocker so I don’t know if it has a ton of ads otherwise.
