Ars TechnicaRIP to my Pixel Fold: Dead after four days
The closed display halves almost touch, and that can smash debris into the screen.
Bill LambI've always said foldables were a solution in search of a problem.
Mix in their own problems, and there you go.
Darwin Woodka@arstechnica why are they always trying to make phones bigger when all I want is one that's smaller sigh
these machines will destroy US.@arstechnica this makes me sad. I really was a little excited for this phone.
Christopher K. Horton@arstechnica As a longtime Nexus/Pixel user, the idea of a foldable Pixel interests me. But they need to bring the cost down and the durability up by substantial amounts first.
Favonius85@arstechnica durability seems to be issue with foldables overall
CrackedLCD@arstechnica The amount of fanboy rage this article generated in r/googlepixel is something to behold.
alaxitoo@arstechnica my husband has a Samsung galaxy flip phone and I don’t really get the appeal 🤷♂️ I get distracted by the crease fold thing in the middle 😂
Its Gregory@arstechnica The folding phone seemed like nonsense from the start Not sorry !
Archonet@arstechnica watching the development of foldable screens on phones has just been a never ending tragic disappointment, every single one on the market is unreasonably fragile for a consumer product. I can get not being waterproof, but pocket lint or ending up next to a set of keys should not brick a phone when those are the facts of life for a cell phone.
