    Tbh, I figured Apple taking their time on these was because they were trying to improve the engineering over the Android folding screen offerings.

    Now I wonder if they just wait because everyone assumes Apple would try and make it better, and then they just sell a bunch + the Apple tax, even though it’s just as bad of a product. Like, the marketing team just saying: “wait a couple years”.

      Yeah, I would have thought that Apple would have gone to one of the few manufacturers that have done the engineering for them. There’s a few Chinese brands that have been doing it for years, as well as Samsung. The latter have almost a decade of experience making them now.

      But I guess with the current US regime, Apple doesn’t have much choice.
