I haven't met anyone yet who does and I haven't read any good endorsements about foldable phones but I keep seeing advertisement for foldable phones.

Thanks

I daily drive a Z Fold 5 and I can't imagine having to use a non-foldable now. I use it mostly to watch shows and YouTube and it's great. The screen size and oled display is amazing to watch stuff on. But, I also do a lot of other things as well. I bought the pen for it so I doodle on it whenever I'm waiting for something or I mess around in FL Studio and make little jingles. And, what I found to be amazing is that I can use Dolphin on it so I can play GameCube games on it without any lag. I've played through all of paper mario on my phone. I also use it to do a lot of reading and writing to so its great for that and also reading manga and comic books. The screen is insanely bright when you want it to be and the speakers are...well as good as you can expect from a phone but they're still pretty good.

Fascinating.

I love comics but obviously can't read them on a pixel, but you have no problem with them on your Z5?

Except I imagine like the double page spreads?

That all sounds great, why don't they make front-facing speakers in these phones?

It seems so obvious when you face the bottom speaker towards your ear, everything is so much clearer.

Throw them up front, guys

Yeah, I can imagine it's hard to read them on that type of phone. Yeah it's basically like holding a small comic book so it's pretty cool. Double oage spreads are stilla problem though so don't expect to see them filly. And I agree, it makes sense but...meh

That still sounds great, thanks, I'm excited to dive into review videos
