Do you run the stock OS, or GrapheneOS. Thier site says its available for the fold.
I'm on GrapheneOS. I harbor a deep distrust for Google overall... I couldn't have bought the phone if it didn't. I probably would have upgraded to the newest samsung fold if the pixel fold wasn't supported by grapheneOS.
Im still on thr Pixel 7 with GrapheneOS too. Am open to try a foldimg phone, but i chicken out at the price. I can double the power of my PC for the price of a Pixel fold in AUS.
That's a completely fair assessment. They're definitely still quite expensive.
But I already have a 7950x3d and a 7900xtx... My machine is as good as it's getting. I had the budget, and have some needs that the larger screen meets.
Has it been worth it? Eh... situationally it's been super nice. But I can't say it's been worth the extra $600 I paid above the next flagship spec quite yet. My first samsung fold though... Verizon paid for me previous phone and paid me more than I paid for it... So that one was definitely worth it.
