I'm saving up for a new phone and I'm thinking of getting a foldable one.
Are they really as good/bad as people say they are?

The one I had in mind was the Pixel Fold.

I bought a Pixel Pro Fold 9 because all these tech influencers were talking about how once you get one you can't go back.

Yes, I can. I rarely unfold it.

It's really expensive and I don't see the value. I thought I'd use it most on a plane and it's "kinda" more useful on a flight. Balatro plays better. However, I just wish I got a thinner phone that's easier to carry for my runs.

I think I just want a smaller phone with a good battery life and a headphone jack.

If you do wind up getting a Pro Fold and have smaller hands like me. Get a Sinjimoru or something so you can grip it better. The "spine" of the phone is exposed and I dropped it after like a few weeks and guess where it scratched?
