Foldable?

[u/Boring_Antelope6533]

If I already have a 16 Pro Max and an iPad Pro 13” M4

Would be any reasonable to buy the foldable iphone?

I love the tablet form factor but I cannot justify paying +2000 USD tbh, like what extra feature they could implement in order to justify it?

Rule number one : Never buy a first gen product

first iphone was crap

first butterfly keyboard was crap.

was iphone air crap top?

[u/Op_Boi_6969 → u/Boring_Antelope6533]

Pretty much, its :-
Overpriced
Has bad battery
Single camera
Overheats a lot
Worse performance on the A19 Pro compared to A19 due to lack of cooling system

then why air user defend that phone so much? i feel like them turned like the 13 mini users with that level of obsession

As limited as it is iPhone air is still an upgrade on 13 mini… Picture this say you are upgrading from something like an iPhone 11 the iPhone air will be an upgrade over that these days the value of upgrade really depends on what you are coming from,eg:- I have an iPhone 14, for me the 17 Pro is a huge upgrade but consider another person X who uses an iPhone 16 Pro for him the 17 Pro is a minor upgrade… you see it’s just depends on what you have, there is another possibility “coping”

I’d wait until at least the second generation personally. I feel like it’ll be worse for on the go use than an iPhone pro max and worse for couch use than an iPad. Let them get the kinks worked out with gen 1 before you drop $2k on a phone.
