We had all assumed that foldable phones were a thing of the past, and boy, were we wrong! They are back with a vengeance. The leading brands in the smartphone industry have devoted time and energy to creating stylish designs, superior engineering, and functional features in modern foldable smartphones. With the technology still relatively new, the price ranges may still be out of reach for many. But we hope that this will eventually change. In the meantime, let's look at a few that have hit the market in the last year or so.
