64% of Chinese high-end smartphone users say they are willing to choose a folding screen phone the next time they buy it.

Wanting to try a new form (22%) and having a larger screen (21%) are the main reasons why users choose folding screen phones.

89% of potential folding screen phone buyers prefer large folding screen phones because of their larger screens and multitasking capabilities.

When choosing a folding screen brand, the brand's reputation and technical strength are the key considerations.

The durability of folding screen phones is the primary consideration for people.

The Honor Magic V2 is the best-selling model this quarter.

Android users are more interested in folding screen phones, at 71 per cent, compared with 58 per cent of iOS users. In the survey, users of existing folding screen mobile phones are more willing to buy folding phones, and most of them are willing to continue to use this new mobile phone form.

The durability of the folding screen phone is the part that respondents (23%) most want the product to improve, and the negative comments on domestic social media are mostly about the high maintenance cost of the folding screen and the durability of the product design. Therefore, the reputation of folding machine manufacturers in terms of quality and after-sales service is very important.

CTOnews.com also found that the survey also explored consumer expectations for large folding phones. About 70% of respondents believe that the weight of a folding screen phone should be similar to or lighter than the smartphone they are using. With regard to thickness, most respondents believe that the thickness of large folding phones should not exceed 10-12 mm. At the same time, most users are willing to pay 7000 to 8000 yuan for large folding devices.
