Yeah that's how you break your phone. Perfect example of taking advantage of the platform though.

Foldable hinge. Good for 10k folds, or 30 minutes of foldy bird.

5Β½ flaps per second is impressive; you must be playing Foldy Hummingbird.

It's true rsi is far more likely to kick in before hinge failure.

Foldy bird is fun, until you get some colored stripes on the screen.

That's hilarious. Great way to stress test those hinges. Hope someone records how many hours the hinges held up to playing foldy bird.

This is genius! Deeply disturbed genius, but still genius.

I love unique implementations of things for specialized technology, I don't like how this will probably shorten the phone's lifespan to about 3 months.

Fun concept though!

Doesn't bother me, I'm not dumb enough to buy one 🀣
