Blogger ditches folding iPhone Duo for iPhone Air: attention finally back on content

Blogger op7418 shares his switch back from the folding iPhone Duo to the iPhone Air. While the Duo's build quality is excellent and it works well in well-adapted apps, he found the heavy body and poor adaptation of mainstream Chinese apps kept his attention on the phone itself rather than the content.
Back on the Air, the light body is barely noticeable and he finds the display even better. The single speaker, single camera, and battery limits don't bother him: he carries a backup phone, charges often at home, and always travels with a power bank. He also notes the Air now costs over 7,000 RMB versus the 5,000 he originally paid.
