There’s no revolutionary advantages. They’re a bit easier to toss in your pocket and the outer screen’s limited functionality seems to be a good way to do things like check the time, check notifications, turn on/off smart devices, or switch songs without having to open the phone and potentially falling down an instagram/reddit/lemmy rabbit hole
I have a fold 4 which I love. Was thinking about switching to the flip so I went to check one out. All the reasons you listed where the things drawing me to it until I remembered I wear a smart watch and do all that already without taking my phone out. Then it became useless to me. The only benefit would be the small form factor when in my pocket but like I said, I have a fold, big phone in my pocket doesn’t really bother me. And the biggest thing in would miss is being able to set my phone down half folded and watch videos on the vertical half. A feature I didn’t think I would use but I do all the time.
