Samsung's Galaxy Fold, the $2,000 folding smartphone the company announced in February, very much feels like a first-generation product.
But its crease is certainly noticeable, and the front screen is much too small to be very useful.
After spending a full week with a perfectly functional Galaxy Fold, here's a look at my favorite features, as well as the areas in which I think it could be improved. While it clearly feels like a first-generation product that's more expensive than it's worth, using it helped me understand why Samsung and other large tech firms are investing in foldable phone technology.
Being able to snap the Fold shut and toss it in my bag when I'm done reading or playing a game felt very convenient, especially since I was able to fit the phone in purses that are usually too small for a tablet.Hollis Johnson/Business Insider It's important to keep in mind that battery life will always vary depending on how you use your device, so your experience may differ from mine.Hollis Johnson/Business Insider
However, there were a few instances in which I found it helpful to launch multiple apps at once. The Fold can run three apps on screen simultaneously, which I used to check my email, catch up on my work chatroom, and browse social media at the same time.Hollis Johnson/Business Insider
