      A device is still functional for years to come after it's date of purchase, it's usability is not invalidated by the release of newer models. The S21 Ultra should serve you for another good 4-5 years with proper usage, or 2-3 years if you want reselling previleges. But refreshing your phone every year is honestly just excessive and mostly a waste.

      The flip variant is more practical, but it also provides less benefits than a full tablet mode. Basically this flip phone is a tall Galaxy S21. The screen width is the same as the regular S21 and you get a few extra pixels on top.

But if you can have a a Samsung 21 that folds into your pocket? That seems like heaven to me personally. AND the easy accessibility to your music, weather, time, and notifications, that's awesome. The only thing that may suck is if the screen cracks and prevents the phone to fold. Other than that, this phone seems really cool
