I haven't shopped for a new phone for a while but I have to admit I'm eyeing the new foldables from an accessibility standpoint. I really miss the mechanical keyboards that used to be available on every phone. In the absence of that, I'd love to have the option of a full-screen keyboard on one side and still being able to view the context of what I'm typing about on the other side without everything shrinking the way it does on regular phones.

Meh; I'm happy with my Z Fold 3. It's powerful enough, and does everything I expect expect from a tablet and a phone, except better cause I don't have to carry and charge two devices anymore.

The Pixel Fold is interesting. Can't wait to buy the latest model 5 years from now. Maybe by then they'll finally figure out how the eliminate the crease. Or even better, maybe in 5 years they'll finally come up with a phone that rolls into a cylinder, like a roll of film or roller window blinds. Pull out the screen a little bit for a phone-like experience. Pull it out more for a tablet. Please send me a check, Google.
