    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.
