Reply to comment by SLCW718 in Pixel Fold renders arrive with detailed size and spec rumors for Google’s foldable phone, by SUPRVLLAN
Currently replying to you in a z fold. For me it's a great phone, I watch YouTube and almost all of my streaming shows on my phone and the big screen definitely is nice to have. The crease was something I noticed at first but over time I kinda forgot about it. Plus the folding part never comes loose which is surprising.
I think this phone is good if you're planning on using the big screen a lot, otherwise it might not be for you. It's pretty bulky in your pocket and the battery life is average at best. The folding screen is not perfect, not all apps are properly optimized for it, but it work surprisingly well for tech that's relatively early in its development.

I got it because normal smartphones are too long and super uncomfortable in pockets. The z flip 4 is sooo much better. I'm not afraid to sit down and worry about my phone bending in my pocket.

When I used an iPhone 4 it was uncomfortable to keep it in my pants pockets (not to mention it left a super visible mark).
This to say that even when the phones were small it was not ideal to put them in a pocket. For many years now I use a man's purse; it is perfect to transport the phone, wallet and keys.

Interesting. Aren't you afraid you're going to misplace or leave it somewhere by accident?
I have the luxury of working from home, so I always wear sweatpants with zipper pockets. It has the benefit of extra security and huge pockets for comfort and I don't think I could ever go back to jeans or any other type of pants.

No, I'm already used to it. Furthermore, I put the phone in an inner pocket, and the outer pocket closes with a zip, so it's well secure.
