It should be obvious to anyone who cares about phone hardware even a little that older foldables won't be the end-all of how thin the packaging is ever going to get.
The assumption that even future foldables will feel like holding two typical 7-8mm phones together is just an obivous case of no research and stereotypical hn complaining.
That’s what jayd16 did, and then you rolled in with a complaint about people who complain, which is pretty rich.
Holding a different opinion is great, but dismissing on a modern cutting edge form-factor, one that has lots of love (as you can see even just in this thread), one that has painfully obvious benefits for reading, all because of "thickness" is daft considering the current crop of foldable.
Price would make 100% sense. But thickness? C'mon.
Some people genuinely go online just to complain. If he'd made a reasonable argument, I'd happily respond charitably.
This is literally you in this thread.
If you think that's just complaining, I don't know what else to tell you.
