Is a foldable right for you?
Foldables suit people who work on their phone, watch a lot of video or multitask. They cost much more than a normal flagship, so check how the phone feels in the shop, ask about screen cover and look at insurance before you commit.
Prices are as announced and may differ by retailer or promotion.
Try one in the store first. A foldable is a personal choice and an expensive one.
