I’ve been on the fence on the Fold 2 ever since the aspect ratios/screen sizes were revealed.

On one hand, I really like the 0G folds short but wide passport form factor, it’s the second biggest reason I held off getting one of those really narrow Galaxy Folds (biggest being, it’s still a SamSuck lol) and the Fold 2s upcoming changes means the unfolded form is going to be pretty much a square

But on the other hand, I think it would be better for one of the biggest uses I use my Fold unfolded for: Remoting into various desktops, since the Fold 2 will be more like 2 8/9 regular pros next to each other it should allow for a bit better “widescreen” when rotated (I like to have the desktop screen on the top and the OSK on the bottom “laptop style”) and even though it’s a square it should be bigger overall

What are your guys thoughts on the Fold 2? Are you upgrading or waiting and seeing what the Fold 3 will look like (and the TSMC 3nm Tensor)

    I have similar feeling about new 9 pro fold. I’m not a fan of the new form factor. I love OG pixel fold passport style.

    Also 9 pro fold, corners are more rounded. I like Galaxy z fold6’s square corners better, feels less wasting spaces, but doesn’t like OneUI (also fold6 cameras are not my taste, lens are not sharp)

    I’m not excited for pixel 9 pro fold or Galaxy z fold6. My OG fold is in good condition and have a preferred care, so, maybe I’m gonna just skip upgrade this year, I don’t know.
