I love the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, even though it can't fix the same old foldable foibles

The thing about foldables is that they are great and great for a while now - hardware wise. Like, my Fold 4 is amazing. The hole when it's closed is a bit strange, but now they managed to close these phones technically flushed - so the only "real" problem disappeared.
the software side of things is what more important. how the OS handles the two (or three) and foldable screens.
It's nice that Google too is pushing this market. This means the support for folding screens will be eventually completely baked into the OS and the manufacturers don't have to hack up apps and services for it.
Now we need people to buy these to make the tech even more cheap and better. Though, if I look into the future in a kind of sci-fi glasses, folding and flexible screens are evident so I think we will be there eventually.
No, we need the tech to be cheaper and better for me to buy it. This isn't my problem, the stuff is just not in a price segment where I can afford it.
Yet.
