Yea something is not right about all the broken Duo pics coming from China and only 1 in Australia and NONE are from the USA. Not buying the false narratives at all. Someone did a 10,000 fold test on the Duo and it was perfectly fine.https://x.com/mediastorm_en/status/2112940762291941794/video/1?s=46

>>110177560The guy who you referenced concluded that the crease was noticeable after the attempt. By the way, 10,000 folds is a poor amount for a folding phone. At 50 folds per day, you're saying your $2000 to $3500 internal phone screen should only last 200 days? Room temperature IQ indeed, fr.

>>110179370I already see the same crease when the phone is off and light is shining on it. It's actually not visible when using the device
>>110179393still hideous
>>110179258/g/ is literally the only place I heard people talk about iPhone duo. Even my Apple friends don't give a fuck about it.
>Most powerful foldable smartphone
>walled garden Google will be locking down Android harder…. it’s so over.
>>110179408I have one friend who has cancelled his Duo order and went for the 18 Pro Max instead. The reason why? The bad publicity surrounding the screen. He's a huge Apple fan and he's stuck with the manufacturer but I don't think many people will go for Duo in the near future.
>>110179408Just depends on what people feel like talking about at any given time. You could always ask them.For work, I see various people with folding phones from time to time, they seem satisfied with it. Haven't seen an apple one yet, though it is new so that could just be because there's just not much to see yet. Still not going to get any folder myself, I just don't trust the durability, from any brand. And I don't care much about being able to have a bigger screen when I'm out and about. Ultra size slab phones or whatever are enough for me.
waited too long, the 256/8GB version of the moto g stylus 2026 went up by $100 literally overnight. now it's $600 but it includes bluetooth buds and smartwatch crap u dont need, and i just got the 2025 instead for $300 for the same specs but passive stylus, $600 gets you phones that are multiple times more powerful than snapdragon 6 gen 3, it's like they think you're stupid, they can't get away with selling 3 year old budget specs on midrange phones for $600 just cus it comes with a pressure sensitive stylusjumping back into the smartphone market made me feel gross, everything is either shit-tier specs or inexplicably lacking basic comforts, samsung hasn't been good since they dropped expandable storage even out of their budget models, moto's whole thing is selling their phones subsidized dirt cheap through carriers and moto fans are such poorfags they can't afford an unlocked $300 phone and are willing to buy prepaid subsidized phones and LITERALLY SWITCH their phone service provider for for at least 2-3 months just to unlock their subsidized phone, it's a level of poorfag timesink that makes even me feel gross, who has the time to play those carrier games, I feel like i'm never buying a smartphone ever again, by the time I need another one, headphone jacks and expandable storage will be a thing of the past, i really only bought in now because I figure budget phones announced next year will come with 4GB of ram instead of 8 prease understandu
Apple uses the same screens as Samsung
>>110179393It's been like that since the Galaxy Fold 1
A strangely high number of posts of broken Duos are from Chinese people.I'm sure there are numerous genuinely defective units but are they breaking some of these on purpose for some reason?
>>110179790Best time to buy a phone is today, things won't get better until years from now.Getting whatever is left of 2025 (or 2024 flagship) stock is the best value move.
>>110179917They're just buying so many with shopping bots to scalp them that they are disproportionately represented
>>110179962Wouldn't they have a specified amount per region?
>>110179989yes?they're flying to california to snap up US allocations too
>>110179899The biggest functional difference is the depth of the crease. Cause I play a lot of games on my fold 8 and I tried the fold 3 back in the day and my inputs would get weird around the crease which is why I didnt buy one until now
>>110179989I’ve seen photos from Apple stores in the US and it’s all Chinese people lined up outside
>>110180323>I’ve seen photosYou're on an image board, why not post said photos?
>>110175484>Bloomberg has independently verified more than a half dozen cases of the folding screen of iPhone Duos breaking within the first hours of normal usageThe widespread screen failures on the iPhone Duo, are entirely the fault of the screen manufacturer Samsung. The three Samsung screens are 80% of the phone value in the case of a folding phone. This also mirrors the failure mode of Samsung's Z Fold8 screens.Samsung should compensate Apple for warranty repair of these failures.

They should preempt this by having her agree not to disclose any issues in return for 5 spare phones, for free.
So I'm kinda new to this kinda stuff. I had my eyes out for the Moto Razr foldable for quite a while. I didn't know there was a whole genre of phones called the 'foldables' or whatever. I only thought there were two foldables on the market: Razr and the Samsung one.Anyway, after seeing all this hub bub around the iPhone Duo cracked screen, and learning that there are a bunch of foldables on the market, I just wanted to ask:What is the consensus on the Moto Razr 2025? I got a new one a few months ago and it's holding up pretty well. I have some cheap Chinese case on it, but it actually does a good job of protecting it. Anyway, are there any reports of the Razr having issues like the Duo? My friend had a Razr and he got a green vertical line all the way up and down the inside screen. It was one pixel wide. He says he has no idea what caused it. Anyway, anyone know of any specific things I should be aware of to keep this thing from going full blown Duo rekt?
New report:>iPhone Duo has the highest failure rate of any foldable since the Galaxy Fold 1
>>110181516I don't remember any of the folding phones having a big meme issue. The durability has always been a big question mark more because they can scratch easily, or the potential of dust getting underneath, but nothing that would seem recall-worthy or anything.

Everyone's calling out JerryRig for how unfair and fake his sand and debris test was for the iPhone Duo compared to the Fold 8. He used a pinch of sand for the Samsung with no rocks (of which he is a fan of) and used literally rocks with sand for the Duo. He's getting called out for how fake his tests are now too. He NEVER uses the same amount of sand and rocks and makes sure Samsungs can pass the test.https://www.reddit.com/r/iPhoneDuo/comments/1xe9lv0/i_see_a_lot_of_people_cancelling_their_duo_orders/

>>110181516You need to treat them very carefully, a few grains of sand can get into any of them and scratch the inner display from outside, or if they get into the hinges cause bigger problems with it.That said, I'm sure the majority of users have no issues for them for years.They're usually called flip if they open up into a regular smartphone shape, and foldable, if they open up into a small tablet.The Moto Razr 2025 specifically was the cheapest flip phone when it came out, still might be. It's decidedly mid-range, and IMO the chipset is just a bit too weak. If you're taking tons of video outside, while multitasking it might just freeze on you.In general, motorola offers you more freedom on what you can do on the smaller display (basically anything) but it won't be a polished experience. Samsung flip phones (not foldables) only lets you use a few features, like you have a smart watch on the outside.

Question, what would you anons consider to be the minimum amount of "power" a phone needs to be good enough for general usage and not gaming or other heavy workloads? I guess in terms of Geekbench scores
>>110187602So any Apple iPhone owner then.
>>110187607Heavy workloads or multitasking? A Snapdragon Gen 7 gen 3 with a lot of system RAM would hold its own with multitasking. Gaming, a Snapdragon 8 gen 1, a 2022 SOC is probably a good starting point for any modern gaming as well as emulation.
>>110187602True and they/them are the ones upset about seeing all the factual information being posted about Apple doing better than the competitors.
>>110187639General usage, not gaming or heavy multitasking.
>>110187607Any base model flagship really, you get like 7 years of support and some futureproofing and the build quality isn't complete ass.
>>110187652Just normal usage with light multitasking then I would say any midrange Android, an iPhone 16e or, a iPhone Air which is around £800 rrp in the UK, a A19 pro chip so a powerful chip and a cracking deal.

>>110189085Stay away from Nova Launcher as it's owned by some Scandinavian Advertising agency and it's jacked to the tits with telemetry. Poweramp is my goto but I used the paid version. Niagra or Lawnchair for a launcher. VLC for media. I use Moon+ Reader Pro for books and comic content. Mame4Droid for Mame ROM play. Usenet Panda for NZB downloads and uTorrent Pro for torrents.

Samsungs own forum is FULL of complaints about its foldables lagging and the screens bending into the device at the corners. It’s also full of people complaining that their Samsung smartphones caught fire or exploded. Meanwhile here you have anons defending a company that can NOT STOP its devices from blowing up and causing third degree burns to people.
My s26 ultra is so much slower than my OnePlus 15, iPhone 18 Pro Max and Red Magic 11 Pro. The soc was a complete let down in the galaxy. Even the base model iPhone 17 SPC is more power than the Galaxy Fold 8 soc. /g/ made things up again, always glorifying stuff here.

Sadly MANY complaints about Samsung smartphones getting green lines from software updates which causes overheating and the device melts from the inside. Truly remarkable engineering placing ribbon connectors next to the SOC.
Based DameTech video, the s26 ultra kept crashing without a cooler. The A19 Pro achieved higher frame rates as well.Example of a s26 ultra thermal throttle crashing in under 15 minutes. See: >>110176218https://youtu.be/clETUqUpyco?is=H3sX5as15d6U0lMr

Anyone here who has used both Android and iPhone extensively?I'm looking to upgrade my 5 year old Samsung flagship because:>Samsung heavily pushing AI >I got buttfucked by Samsung Care>S26U basically same price as iPhone Pro Max>Samsung Care doesn't work internationallyI don't want a pixel or Chinese phone so I'm basically stuck going iPhone. The hardware looks great but the more I read about iOS the more I am hesitant to switch... I think I can deal with a lot of the "walled garden" bs but today I found out you can't even clear App caches? Like for Instagrarm everything just stays in cache until you're forced to delete and reinstall the App? That sounds so fucking retarded.For people who have used both extensively what else did you miss from Android going to iPhone?
>>110191360True af
>>110192414Yeah googles AI shit is pretty bad and their slider to turn it off with a "trust me bro, pinkie swear" Isn't very reassuring knowing googles track history. Shit will come to iPhones eventually too though via gemini integration. So there's only graphine OS pixel phones if you want privacy.
>>110192506I don't really care about privacy. My original deal breaker with getting the latest Samsung was that their photo editing software would add "made with generative ai" or something because they shove AI into everything.I also really don't like how Samsung cameras are more and more reliant on generative ai to add details
