Would you buy a folding iPhone?

I feel more usage phone to iPad for most people

How about an iPad that folds into an iPad mini?

Like 12.9in to 7in?

Something like that.

Something like that.

That would be cool. I just don't know if I would personally want that. I would see myself grow used to one of them, and then I would probably just rather have the iPad Mini or iPad Pro without the compromises of the foldable.

No, I would/will not buy a folding camera, I have cameras whether I like it or not ! I do not use them much as it is. Every damn Apple device I have has a camera !
I do not suffer from the weird desire to document every part of my existence with odd electronically mutated images, or suffer from the delusion that other people want to see them.

The subject is would you buy a folding iPhone not a folding camera.

I get the feeling Apple's yearly camera upgrades are a big factor in you upgrading your iPhone

I've just been looking at the rumoured specs etc and WOW!!!
If rumours are anything close to being true the prices are going to be eye watering....

I imagine the carriers are going to eat it up. Buy a $2K iPhone Fold OR sign a 3 year contract and we will give you one!

We could be looking at an iPhone with a starting price that is more than some MacBooks .... Crazy!!!!

The iPhone 17 Pro Max with 2TB of storage and AppleCare+ is over $3,200.00 in Canada.

I'm sure some deals will be coming by carriers for sure I'm ready but let's see how it rolls out. Fold 7 I'm using now is $1900 but with incentives and trade in deals makes it doable for many folks

Of course not many of us need a 2TB phone, but I'm talking about the starting price of this foldable iPhone, we could be looking at £2,000 here in the uk, I very much doubt I would be paying that much for a phone ..,,

The weak spot is the fold in the screen. It will fail at that point if it opened and closed too many times.

That was my first thought when Samsung introduced its foldable.
