These phones offer the flexibility to switch between compact and tablet-like sizes, but lack truly innovative features and use cases. Additionally, app support is limited and the high cost of production and lack of durability present challenges. Other technologies like rollable displays are still in the development stage and face similar issues with high costs and limited use cases.
