Huawei's tri-foldable phone hits global markets in a show of defiance amid US curbs
-
I do use a case, nothing special, just some random chinese plastic. I also keep it wrapped in plastic protectors, both on the back and front, and tend to switch them out when it begins to look scuffed.
So far it looks kinda brand new besides the edges that have some actual scuff marks, i tend to drop it frequently lol
-
I was going to say the same thing a bifold wallet is two panels and one for, trifold is the panels and two folds
-
So is Aurora Store replacement for play store only? What about Security like android security which is core for vägning apps? I do want to get rid of Google things but email is essential and in dont want paltry GBs subs in have lit of emails. I am all for foss infact any utility which I search on play store I always try foss alternative but Gmail and maps are 1. Too good 2. Too much convenient 3. Highly accessible (e.g. with Google maps I can get local commute options which I highly dependent upon )
-
Trifold wallets fold twice, which also doesn't make sense, but it's probably where they got the name.
-
Don't we all haha, thanks for the feedback. I'm sold
-
Seconding the other guy's endorsement of the zflip. I got mine as a really cheap trade in upgrade thinking the folding was just a gimmick and now I'm pretty much always advocating for the thing. Hasn't been any less durable than any other phone I've had and though there's a very minor crease mostly from the protective panel, it's never been an issue.
-
Still a dumb concept.... just bring back classic flip phones. ffs
-
without Google's android, and in Western world you can't use it for banki g purposes due to lack of security
Weird how I can use this PC (Made in China) without needing no oversight from lel Google to access my bank without issue. Right?
-
Very very interesting, and stupid
-
I want to have a phone that I have to wrangle-fold like an old paper map
-
Which is weird, because where I am, most banks don't rely on Google services at all for this precise reason (and as a side effect my bank works perfectly on Graphene). Not all budget Chinese phones lack Google services of course, but Huawei and such are still a big chunk of the market.
-
Americans would still get confused. Refer to ⅓lb>¼lb burger, flopped because Muricans claim weird fraction math for length is superior....yet still cannot fraction their way out a wet paper bag....

I've got the Honor Magic V3, it's the 2 panel version of the OP device. I've had it for 6 months now, no complaints so far. I'm a stone mason, loooooots of super fine dusts of varying degrees of caustic. I got a slightly more robust case than what came with it, and I'm a bit more careful about what pocket I keep it in. I've dropped it over a dozen times, and mangled the hinge on one case already. But like you, I've had regular phones start failing around now, and this one is still fine. I feel like the first and 2nd gen foldables were where most of the kinks were worked out, and now they're only slightly more delicate in very specific ways compared to a regular slab phone.
-
Call me when the phone folds into an origami swan
-
I didn't know that, but yes, it would probably seem confusing to use different terminologies for essentially the same thing.
-
See, that's just it, I already do that with my standard phone... At this point, they're all basically phablets, Nexus 6 was right all along (although it still did it better, save for the weird speaker system...). Multi-window splits have also been a thing for a good while now, I honestly don't see the point for more screen on my pocket device... Heck, I even mainline it as a secondary PC, use it to have YT/movies in the background while doing stuff on the big dude.
-
Sso... like my already existing smartphone. Only larger.
-
3500 is a lot for a device with an always exposed, easily scratched display.
