On: The Pixel Fold is Google’s $1,800 entry into folding phones

People actually use these? Like what's the point? Instead of being longer, it's wider...

I don't get it either. There is a visible and palpable seam on the Samsung ones, why would someone pay for that?

I've had the fold 4 for about 6 months now and I don't even notice the crease unless I'm looking at the screen from a wierd angle.

The bigger screen is great for ebooks, graphic novels, Game Pass, YouTube, etc... Basically, anything that is visual is nicer on the larger display.

Sure it costs $1800, but I get a lot of use out of it and don't have any desire to go back to a non-folding phone.

I could use it. It seems to be better than a normal phone for reading pdfs or for web browsing or games. But the price is insane.
