The biggest issue android tablets have is that many apps simply treat them like large phones. So it kind of defeats the purpose for me as I do not watch videos or read lots of text on my phone.

Not worth it, I might get one in a few years when its $300. I do want a foldable, but the price of phones now is getting insane.

I am awaiting mine to ship and when it arrives I’ll be more than happy to answer any questions about it. One of the main things I’m excited about is the more squat screen, I’m so tired of having to drop my P7Pro onto the base of my palm to reach my middle finger to the top of the screen, lol. The tall and skinny design has just run its course with me. (There are plenty of other reasons but that’s been my beef with the Pro of late)

I’m really excited for what it means for the future! I’m not going to buy a first-gen product like this, but the fact that Google is making a foldable hopefully means that Android is going to become a better experience on devices like these, so when the technology does get cheaper the software will be ready for it. I’m totally onboard with having a larger display in a more pocketable form factor.

At this point, I’m not interested in folding phones. There just aren’t many reasons why I would need one right now. I suppose that they would make a nice ebook reader, but day-to-day I don’t need that. They are currently a little on the thick side to be keeping in my pocket.

I am happy that they exist and maybe when they get thinner and work out some of the kinks, I might be ore interested.

I’d try it if it was cheaper. I’m intrigued by it and think they can fit some unique applications, but the bulk of essentially 2 phones in your pocket outweigh the convenience o f a tablet in your pocket.

I’ve preordered it. The front display being the size of a pixel 5 is what has sold me, the pixel 5 was a great size for one handed use for me. But I missed a larger screen. Being able to unfold it to a larger screen 👍👍 best of both worlds

I love the idea of it and have been waiting for it for a number of years. When my 4a dies or gets too slow, I’m hoping to make the leap to whatever gen is out.

My question for current owners: in real use, where are you getting the most value from the higher screen real estate?

I pre-ordered in the position, trying a foldable phone for the first time, where if it didn’t impress me, I’d just return it and keep my Pixel 7 Pro. There’s lots of negative reviews and articles saying, “Not Worth It.”

It is for me, I’m hooked. It’s a perfect sized front screen for daily use and it’s killer having the large screen for multitasking and viewing content. If you can afford it, I think you’ll love it.

Can’t speak to the Pixel Fold, but I’m typing this on my new Galaxy Z Fold 4 that I got today. Had a vertical folding phone before this, but not the large form factor horizontal type. I’m a big fan. Been watching shows on it this evening and the screen is just the right size. I think this style of phone is worth the money, myself.

I bought it for a couple of reasons, but if i find i don’t like it I’ll do a return. I do think it’ll be useful and the free pixel watch was a big motivator for me
