My Fold 2 held up 2.5 years but the screen is starting to develop cracks at the hinge.
Still works, but I can see the cracks growing weekly, only a matter of time until they're too visible.
Replacing the screen is just too expensive, together with a new battery I'd look at the price of a new decent normal phone.

The huge screen is nice every once in a while, but I don't do enough with my phone to justify the price.
Was a neat experience of the "future", but the next phone is going to be a normal smartphone. Better battery life, will do the job just fine, lasts longer and cheaper.

No hard feeling towards foldables either, I knew they were expensive.
Also no surprise that folding something 10.000 times (conservative 10x a day for 1000 days) isn't going to last forever.
Maybe they'll find some magical solution for that, but I don't think they will anytime soon.

Species also went extinct when that rock killed the dinosaurs, life still went on. Took a few years to recover, but it went on.

Only question is, will humanity go exting before we pump too much CO2 into the atmosphere to end up like Venus.

Heads come in all sizes and shapes.
The HP Reverb gave me headaches within 10mins of playing due to the small sweetspot in the middle, other people had no issues with it because their IPD was smaller. Same goes for weight distribution, nose sizes, light leaks and more.

I don't think it's a hassle, more a service to get it customized/dialed in for a unique head.
They pay a nice chunk of money for it, Apple can't have anyone badmouthing it because they just sold a "one size fits all" model.
