I think this is where the tech going into the iPad Pro and iPhone Air is destined to end up, if they can get the thickness of each side into the low 5mm ballpark, then a 10mm folding phone vs. a 8-9mm pro model and its not much thicker.
I’d trade 1-2mm thickness for a 5.5” form factor (please submit your jokes below)
Interesting thing is when I got my iPad Pro and was looking into cases I saw comments of people finding their tablet bent slightly after use with how thin I was. So I made sure to go for one with rubberized edges so it didn’t require force to put in or take out.
And I would have taken a thicker one to house a bigger battery and not have bending concerns.
And when it comes to phones I wish phones were as thick as the protruding camera bump so it is completely flush and flat. And get more battery life.

But, I’m probably unusual in wanting that.
