who wants a folding smartphone anyway? I've never wanted that? If I had $1500 to throw around on toys I'd buy an actually useful computer!

somehow I feel like products are decoupled from what people (I?) actually want and need. There are so many basic usability issues with smartphones as they are now. Being able to fold one in half is not helping those, but it's introducing a new mechanism that might become a usability issue too. It seems weird and gimmicky.

With how expensive phones are becoming, it also reprises the days when you had contracts with cell phone carriers. Remember when all of a sudden the US carriers were competing on "no contract" plans? You used to have to sign up for one or two years of cell phone service when you chose a plan, but then that stopped. What they did instead of was push the price of smartphones so high that most people choose to lease them for...one or two years. So they are once again stuck in a contract, it's just a different contract.

@abucci you'll be surprised how many people spend on things we don't understand...
