    Most of what he discussed I could live with… except for such a poor battery life. 4 Hours screen on time? get out of here. that’s as laughable as Apple’s headset with up to an hour battery life LOL

      I feel like I’m getting way better than that on mine. I came from the 7 Pro and, yes, it did better than the Fold on day 1 when I had the screen open the entire time, through my work day (off and on when time allowed) I made it home with plenty to spare and I work 12s.

    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 the dream of just opening up your regular phone to have a small tablet, clashing with the reality that your phone will never be regular sized if you want it to be able to do this!

      Maybe someday phones can be like 4mm thin, so doubling that for a foldable would be reasonable. But we are definitely not there yet.
