Why are we OK with thick folding phones, but not with thick no-folds? (youtu.be)

Was watching this video on the "tri-fold" phone by MKBHD and that thing is thicc! I don't care about folds, but I can't find a single phone without a fold ~~phone~~ that is that thick. The battery life would be amazing...

I would prefer a thicker phone, especially if it has a larger battery. Apple's obsession with slim is ridiculous, especially because they're impossible to hold onto. Thankfully they seem to have finally figured that out with their newer phones which have flat sides.

The trend part suck. You know if Apple decided thicker phones were cool again, then all of Android would copy it instead of thinking for themselves & meeting user demands (niche or otherwise)
