I went through my late teens as the initial smart phone boom was happening. I had a Motorola q that could get TV channels and had a keyboard. I had the enV that flipped open. And many androids/blackberries that I loved for their unique form factor and functionality.

I have never balked at spending money on a phone and for a long time i felt locked into generic flagship devices. With the debut of folding screens I feel like my appetite for unique devices rekindled. I think the power of android lies in its diversity of implementation.

So what features and functionalities would you choose over the next flagship release?

    I don’t know if having the phone be a touch screen on both sides would be that good of an idea, since it just seems like it would be an awful experience to accidentally fumble things because your hand was touching the back (or be unable to use a case with it).

    Maybe if it was combined with some of the newer folding phones? You have an e-ink outer screen, with a regular LCD/OLED inner screen?

      I assumed some sort of palm rejection would prevent taps registering on the side not in use, but completely forgot about phone cases 🥴
