I do not understand the appeal of these devices. Most of the time, it’s just a phone but twice as heavy and twice as think.
Then every blue moon you make it into a small subpar tablet?
It’s for dads. For real, I just came back from South Korea and every dad had galaxy fold which makes sense as a family travel power phone. Only dads can pull off this absurdly awkward look of unfolding your tablet to take some off-angle pictures of a pine tree lol
I commute by train everyday and having a tablet I can carry in my pocket is really convenient. I only recently got a Samsung Z Fold 4 but am loving it so far.
It’s a real shame that a phone that looks that good can turn out so bad. Battery life is the killer here, hopefully Google will be able to improve by Gen2, otherwise I feel like Samsung will remain kings of the folding phone space.

Seifert talks about it all a bit more on his mastodon, too.
