Trifold wallet tho

The suffix “fold” in this instance refers to the number of parts, not the number of folds. As confusing as that is.

My tender palm hurts just looking at this. I can feel the pinch.

i can only get so fucking soaking wet.. literally can not wait.

The iScroll!

Going to 4 is just playing it safe, you gotta go to 5!

Like razor blades, Mach 5!

Motorola has ⅔ of that on many models.

Removable battery not an option though.

And while we're at it, a physical tactile keyboard.

Clearly, so they could make an !oddlysatisfying@lemmy.world animation. I mean, practicality is obviously not a factor here.

I already pay with my watch.

I don’t need anything that is between my phone and my laptop in size.

Phones are becoming the new wallets…

Now I want a phone case with a chain that attaches to my belt.

(Like the kind bikers and punks used to wear.)

I can actually see the value in a trifold like the one pictured. In your pocket it’s a phone. When you unfold it, it’s an iPad. You’re consolidating devices.

That said, I’m not a fan of folding lcd screen tech used today. It creases. I’d rather see three separate bezel-less screens that magnetically join to make a larger surface.

Phone companies, listen to me, BUILT-IN KICKSTAND

All the things that used to break phones got fixed, mobile OS changes got smaller and smaller, designed obsolescence required something that would get people to buy a new phone every 18 months. So here's a hinge. Here's TWO hinges!

Companies don't make as much money when it's repairable. Washers and dryers used to last 20-25 years with a few repairs here and there. But companies weren't making any money, so they started making unrepairable junk instead.

It's really not bad, especially for reading, especially if your eyes aren't what they used to be.

It is pretty useful and convenient if your use case suits it but I don't think that fits the majority of people. For me my Fold 6 replaced my Kindle and Surface. It's nice to able to open it up to read ebooks and manga since opened up, it's pretty much the dimensions of a typical book. Also makes things a lot easier when I need to remote into a PC or SSH into stuff and is a really convenient sketch pad for ideas.

It's also really neat that it's not ridiculously wide like every other phone out there nowadays since I have small hands.

My Fold 3 lasted 3 years with no issues until I traded it in so I think they're fairly well built.

In this case with the trifold, I personally think it's way too big but I'm someone who's never seen the point of tablets that were larger than 7 inches anyways. Always preferred a laptop at those sizes.

The all new Apple shoe laces! Because now we got you bitch! You thought you could escape ads while tying your shoes? Think again you sonobabich! It's a Walmart October.....sale! Everything...... must go!.... bananas!... $3.56/lb.... American cheese 🧀..... 56c/lb! ....blowout sale....blowout prices!.... Walmart......

Hey! Get out of the way dude! It's the elevator entrance! If you need more time with your laces take a seat over there!

.... In other news, tree elderly cops were run over today while tying their shoes! The CDC suggests banning shoe lace ads unless they are about guns. The republican Senate has put forward the new constitutional ammunition amendment law that includes this and the deportation of anyone who isn't a white guy. Women disagree entirely!....

Not many people get it until they get one. I got a fold 3 when it came out and have just upgraded to a fold 6 because i just couldn't go back. Its a better form factor for a mobile computing device. Its a phone thats also a small tablet! I gave my old one to my wife who was always averse to getting a fold and she has told me multiple times since then that its her favourite phone shes ever had.

Do you mean Lisa Frank, the artist for colorful animals on school supplies, and not Anne Frank, the famous diarist who was killed by the Nazis during the Holocaust?

I kinda always wanted Penny's computer book from Inspector Gadget.
