I've had 4 z-flips (original, 3, 4 and 5) and at least as far as comfort goes, they're significantly better than a standard phone. They also fit in your pocket a lot better. Yes, I just said that. The problem with the z-flip is the 5 and later have a screen on the outside of the phone. The huge advantage of the flip phones is the case protects the interior screen, so there's no need to buy a screen case. The 5 did away with that because Samsung was busy listening to reviewers instead of the people who actually use them. I was in the hospital for 5 weeks, had nurses pull the table causing my phone to fall over and over. I still use the phone. It has minimal damage. Do that with a standard phone and you'd be screwed.

Every once in a while some executive comes around and says, "If we merge these two products together, we'll save money on development costs in the future." The new product sucks because it no longer works well with at least one of the platforms. On Mac, the changes made a while ago to Systems Preferences and changes to the UI in Tahoe are great examples.
