iPhone Fold (Book Style)

-Great for multitasking, gaming, and media
-Similar to Samsung Galaxy Z Fold
 
I’m all for a flip style instead of a foldable. Flip phones fold down into a very compact, pocket-friendly square, making them easier to carry. I already have an iPad Mini for a tablet. Give me a phone that’s thin like the Air but half the size of a Mini that flips into a Pro Max.
 
For someone who carries both iPhone and iPad daily, Fold would allow them to consolidate into one device.

I'm interested but I reckon it will be way too pricey for my liking.
 
There's very limited utility with a long rectangle. The current foldable leaders have shown a book style form factor is best.
 
Fold - I don't see the purpose of a flip, though of course if Apple wants to make both then that's fine. But if I have to choose then my vote is going towards the fold.
