  • Finally!

    My biggest problem with bi-foldable phones so far is that they don’t actually offer enough of a screen size to really be the tablet replacement that is worth for all the downsides (like fragile screen, added weight and complexity and everything). But on the other hand it’s also just not possible to make a 10+ inches screen pocketable by folding it only once, whole still retaining an acceptable aspect ratio for both folded and unfolded forms.

    Trifold is the first step towards finally having a meaningful foldable phone.


  • I think the problem fundamentally stems from the fact that Android development is so hardware focused nowadays because hardware makers make so much money, and people seemed to have started forgetting Android is also an OS, with its own software ecosystem, including the ecosystem of OS mods.

    But we have not been seeing nearly as many news about new cool app that explores new ways to redefine functionality and UX design. There’s just not much exciting things going on in the Android software and it’s ecosystem these days it feels like, almost as if it’s not just stagneted but also somehow enshitified as a whole :(
