    I absolutely loved my Nexus 6. It was “massive” at the time but I still think it feels great in the hand today because of the 16:9 aspect ratio screen. I love my Pixel Fold because it isn’t ridiculously tall and skinny like every other phone released today.

      I’ve been curious about those flexible phones. I have a laptop that folds back to be a tablet but never use it in that mode. Do they actually feel usable in the expanded mode?

        Yeah. It’s just a much larger phone/small tablet in the completely unfolded state. The halfway folded state is more useful as a kickstand than the divided layout apps like YouTube present.
