Well, as promised, we are talking foldable this week. The excitement is palpable, and it looks like the rest of our mod team have already started the conversation here. Go check it out.

I honestly don't know very much about foldable phones, so I'll let the rest of our (very smart and knowledgeable) mod team handle this one this week. :)

Last thing for future reference at the end of the week, we also have a great thread discussing foldables here too, go check it out if you want more great discussions.

Love them, tried out the Z Flip 3, Oppo Find N, currently have the Pixel Fold.

I understand that it's not for everyone and I don't think it's a must buy for me, but I really like the form factor and I'm glad for the option.

I couldn't wrap my head around paying premium for what's basically the last gen processor. Pixel 8 will have Tensor 3. The Fold should have been priced accordingly. They used to purposely use the previous gen processors in the Nexus line to keep prices down.

That's fair, pretty good reason, especially for enthusiasts, to not want to buy it.

For me, I stopped being able to notice any significant lag on my phones 2-3 generations ago. I guess I don't do anything that requires that much processing power on my phone anymore.
