@theHazarika@AndyMasley What do you think "consumption" means in the context of water use, dumbass? Does it only count if the water is permanently removed from the water cycle?
@Bubz_Swag@UniverseIce We converged on this TV remote bullshit because it used to be the only way to add screen. The whole point of folding is to solve this. People like the Fold 7 because it feels like what they're used to...but the thing we're used to is a bad design adopted for bad reasons.
@Bubz_Swag@UniverseIce Hard disagree. Fold 7 gets one important thing right: it's *less* of a tall, narrow monstrosity than the earlier Z Folds. Still way too tall and at least a little bit too narrow.
@Bubz_Swag@UniverseIce Also optimistic that it'll just feel more natural and comfortable to hold it in a different way, without wrapping your whole palm around it. It'll be light and well-balanced, so you won't need to put it in a death grip to avoid having it tip out of your hand.
@Bubz_Swag@UniverseIce I agree that this may be a bit too wide when closed. Hard to say without holding it. The OG Pixel Fold was probably as close to perfect as we're ever going to get (in terms of dimensions) and this is significantly wider...but 4:3 when unfolder might be worth the tradeoff π€·ββοΈ
@Kolja333@UniverseIce Only because you've gotten used to the godawful giant slab design that American phone manufacturers have forced on us for so long.
It's about the same weight as a non-foldable, but with a much lower center of gravity. The experience of handling it is not gonna be what you expect
@nnicollasss@UniverseIce The advantage is that the inner screen is actually the right dimensions for tablet-optimized apps. And you'll be able to watch videos without black bars taking up literally a third of the screen. Y'all complain endlessly about chunky bezels...make it make sense
@cashflowfin@UniverseIce I truly don't understand why people keep saying this. The thing is 6 mm *narrower* than a standard passport. Younger generation is weak af
@Jeffrey84120542@UniverseIce For primarily vertical apps like Instagram and TikTok you're probably gonna want to unfold and rotate. And it will be a vastly better experience than using either of those apps on the awkward goofy square that is the standard Z Fold.
@matarhd@UniverseIce Man what kinda pockets do you have that can't fit something with the same proportions as a pocket notebook, a passport, a small wallet...these are all things we routinely manage to fit in our pockets π
