    400k seems a massive success for an ultraexpensive niche product that only sells in one country

    it still runs android or that proprietary incompatible os?

      Incredibly so, so much that it kinda makes me doubt it. What causes foldable phones to be such a success in Asia? All my time in NA/EU and I’ve seen like 5 in the wild.

        Most foldable phones are from Asian companies, some of which are banned in the US.

        The Western world is dominated by Apple and the market reflects that with popular Android phones taking cues from the iPhone. I don’t think foldables will ever take off there unless Apple gets into it.

      It’s only 0.28% of the population of that makes any difference.
