battery life

No matter what phone you buy, there is a constant concern about its battery life. This concern increases especially in the case of foldable phones. Due to the thin design of the foldable phone, it cannot accommodate a large battery. But using the bigger screen of the smartphone requires more battery. In such a situation, the battery in the phone needs to be charged frequently.

Durability of Hinge

Foldable phones have struggled since the beginning with hinge durability. But this problem is not solved yet. According to some reports, the hinges in the phone loosen after some time after using the foldable phone. Also, many users say that if the hinges get dusty, they don’t work properly.

Incompatibility with apps

The extra length and aspect ratio of foldable phones creates compatibility issues with apps and photo-video. A big highlight of the foldable phone is its large screen. But this feature is not fully utilized. A lot of screen space remains empty while watching videos. Additionally, a fold or line appears at the hinge point, which affects the video viewing experience. Some also experience difficulty while scrolling.

Risk of damage

The risk of screen damage of foldable phones is high. The screen of this phone is softer and more fragile than a normal smartphone, which can be damaged when dropped. Many companies also put a plastic screen protector on the screen to prevent damage. But after some time bubbles start appearing in this protector. Compared to normal phones, screen protectors on foldable phones don’t last long.
