Samsung has a new fold-flat hinge, gives the Z flip a bigger screen.

I haven’t shopped for a new phone for a while but I have to admit I’m eyeing the new foldables from an accessibility standpoint. I really miss the mechanical keyboards that used to be available on every phone. In the absence of that, I’d love to have the option of a full-screen keyboard on one side and still being able to view the context of what I’m typing about on the other side without everything shrinking the way it does on regular phones.

    I have the Pixel Fold and the wife has a Galaxy fold 4. I think the Samsung’s folding phone is a little too narrow closed but having a large screen with you at all times is a real treat

      I have the Fold 4 too. And I agree. The narrow screen can actually cause some weird issues with the UI in some apps and on some websites. I wish it was just a little wider.
