I got my fold because I was tired of incremental upgrades that didn't make my phone feel any different than the last years phone (moved from Pixel 2 to pixel 3 right prices dropped when as pixel 6 launched). Sure it was faster but it didn't feel any faster than when the old phone was new. The screen was the same size, it felt the same speed, why even spend the money? I wouldn't pitch that anyone needs a foldable, but by that comparison noone "needs" a $1600 ultra/pro phone when base models are $800-900, but people do anyway. As long as I can afford the upgrade every 3 years, I will get the new one. when the screen finally gives.
