Still waiting for you to address apples cr*p underscreen front camera, lack of physical sim, lack of zoom lens and the crease that is more visible than Xiaomi's wide foldable and Oppo's find N6. Apple's "refined" foldable 🤣

I personally haven't used a physical SIM card since Apple switched to eSIM, and even on my Samsung devices that still support them, I prefer using eSIMs without any issues—even while traveling in Europe. Regarding the screen crease, it's a known trade-off for all foldables; according to Marques Brownlee, it’s on par with the Find N6, which is acceptable to me. Ultimately, I’m not interested in other brands because, for me, it comes down to the ecosystem—I simply prefer iOS. On the android side i will not buy anything except samsung foldable or asus rog phones so for me not a issue.

This is my honest answer to your question.

So how is it better? Android offers both sim options the Huawei has a dual sim tray even. Android foldables have a telephoto lens and the crease on the duo is not on par with the N6 so much for your "refined" comment.

While a quick Google search reveals the truth, MKBHD actually noted that the iPhone Duo has the least visible display crease of any foldable phone on the market.

Marques Brownlee calls the iPhone Duo's display crease the "least crease I've ever seen on a folding phone.

To reiterate, I have no interest in purchasing Huawei or other devices, especially since they lack Google services. Furthermore, since no other brand offers iOS, my only personal choices are Samsung and Apple.

Look up pictures MKS&Mbabydaddy or whatever his name is a paid shill. Look up pictures the N6 has the least visible crease. What about the crappy under screen front camera? What about the lack of zoom lens? Xiaomi is is Android prefer whatever you want that doesn't make it objective better. Crease, zoom camera, lack of physical sim, and weight make the duo objectively worse.

This is where we stop once again. When things don't go your way, you resort to insults instead of having a mature discussion. Marques Brownlee is one of the most respected reviewers in the industry; it’s fascinating that you believe your opinion outweighs his and the consensus of major tech reviewers when they actually go hands on with just about every device. This is the recurring issue with many Android users: you assume everyone else is wrong and that you are the only one who is correct.

Address my points instead of defending MKBDSM. Crap underscreen camera, no zoom camera, no sim tray and weighs more than the other side foldableals. There other real tech reviewers (not the American "reviewers" who are insular and think only Samsung and Apple foldables exist) who state the N6 has the least visible crease. MKBDSM is an influencer and can't get on Apple's bad side. So once again address the points instead defending a tech influencer

You forgot an important date in your iPhone timeline. The Samsung Galaxy Skin at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January 2011. (A fully functional prototype, with a highly flexible 4.5-inch AMOLED display panel, designed to demonstrate how the material could bend without cracking.)


Apple must have been so inspired by what Samsung presented, that they decided to patent it 9mo later so nobody else can take the idea.
