There are already a few folding things like that on the market but they're not as popular. People seem to put up with the crease more than they're prepared to put up with a gap. Mostly because with a crease you can still have a full tablet like experience.

I was thinking about phones, having a "flip phone" without a crease which is "normal size" when opened would be cool. For tablet use the gap admittedly sucks

But it's quite thick for a phone, isn't it? How do you pocket a 5cm/2 inch thick phone? It's more bulky than any regular phone

It's less than an inch thick folded.
