I’ve had a folding Samsung for the past year and it’s really great. The hardware and software do need time to mature (in fact, the phone is nearly useless in “folded” mode without third-party apps), but at this point I don’t think I could go back.

What makes you say the phone is useless in folded mode? I had the Fold 3 and 6 and I never really found the front screen to be an issue. If anything, I found it more usable than regular slab phones because of how narrow it is, it makes one handed usage so easy.

I had the 3, it is so insanely fucking narrow.
Like using an iPhone 4 or something.
The pixel fold I have now is great, usable in both form factors.

Did you set it to a higher zoom level or do you have large hands? The Fold 6 i have now is honestly already way too big for me and I personally wished they kept the size of the Fold 3 and just made the bezels smaller.

I have normal sized hands, I just love huge screens and can single handed text on most, I used the note series since forever except when I went LG.
But reddit canceled their api and trying to use Firefox for it sucked major ass, the vroser version of the site is barely usable at all but damn if I was going to use their Spyware app.
