Fold, for sure. Actually pocketable, and secure once pocketed.
Yes fold it's the best
Lowkey never really liked the curved screen trend anyways. Had an s8 and really disliked it. It looks cool but in practice, really annoying
I have the Edge+. I wanted a Pixel like experience with the benefits of a Snapdragon 8 Gen2. It has generally delivered. The battery life is exceptional in every way. It lasts a long time and also charges in under an hour.
The camera isn't great. For the specific thing I really judge it on, photos of my pets, it's between the Pixel and Galaxy.
I have a case on mine, so the edges do in some ways help with gesture navigation. I'll say it's a little offset on the bottom edge because it feels like all elements on the bottom part of the screen are too low. Fingerprint scanner (although this one is easy to get used to), camera shutter, and the homescreen app shortcuts.
As a whole package, I'm much more satisfied with it than the Pixel 7 Pro. The update situation will be much worse, but it just feels less urgent than it used to. I'm hopeful they can at least make good on their security update promises.
