I love folding phones because they offer you more choice. You can use them like a regular smartphone, or fold them out into the size of a mini tablet for when a larger screen is required. Or you can use them in a half-opened flexed position for when you want to stand them up on a desk.

We take a look at one of the best new folding phones on the market, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4, and point out 5 things Apple could learn from its competition.
