I’m gonna be honest, I’m not a naysayer and I actually like it a lot. I won’t be buying it this generation and will be holding onto my 17 Pro Max until at least next year, BUT the one thing I don’t like about the Duo is actually the design. Not the functionality, the design.
I think it looks great when it’s unfolded, but when it’s folded it looks kinda dated and ugly, relatively speaking. I don’t like the one-side-rounded, one-side-squared look, and the cameras just look out of place and somehow make it look dated already.
It kinda reminds me of the first Samsung Galaxy Fold. Even when it was released, I thought it looked like a prototype, and now if you compare it to the latest foldables, it really does look ugly.
I think the same applies to the Duo. It’s really cool and awesome, but it’s just not beautiful IMO. At least not when it’s closed.
