I was waiting for him to post this. I didn’t think this phone would withstand all that pressure just from my daily use of it but it did surprisingly decent… just dont bend it the other way lol

    I don’t need it to be super durable but the plastic screen is still a dealbreaker for me. Wonder when we’ll get something better that’s foldable.

      Unfortunately thats the case with all the foldables for now. Im not sure if we can get to place where we have something super durable, super clear, and folding flat. but heres hoping

        Okay that’s a message I never received on my 7 pro. And imo that piece already has some heating problems I never noticed so strongly when I have been around with an iPhone.

          I’ve definitely had this happen on a Pixel before. I was using it in pretty hot weather, and I think I was using it for a video chat.

          The phone just shut down, and when it turned on again, it showed a message about overheating protection.

            Wow. Didn’t have it so far. That’s really a thing google needs to get rid off. Battery life is okay and more than acceptable. But heating is a huge issue
