Have you been looking for a phone that could merge the gap between your favorite PC titles and the flexibility of a mobile device? Steven thinks the Galaxy Z Fold 4 has become that bridge, but is it worth the hassle in comparison to other options, such as the Steam Deck or Nintendo Switch?

    Foldable phones are kind of scary to be honest; durability of micro-components and the screen itself still feels like it needs a lot of work.

    But i admit it's nice and cool looking, but i wouldn't personally buy one.

    For some context, an example of what older models had issues with: https://www.engadget.com/z-fold-3-long-term-durability-report-heres-what-samsung-still-cant-get-right-130053466.html

    That screen is big for a phone. I don't play games on the phone so moot but still that size is way nicer that the tiny screen I have.

    I have the 2019 Fold and still absolutely loving it. Spec-wise it's still a beast. I play a lot of PS1 games on it, BDO Mobile, COD Mobile, KotOR 1 & 2, GTA 3, and a ton of others when I travel. I have free Google Play Pass through Verizon, so that's nice to have too.

    I recommend checking JerryRigEverything's videos if you are interested in foldable phones. He does throughout durability tests of them, which is probably the biggest issue with them right now.

    @StevenWeber

    The screen sizes on your specifications are wrong. The specs should be 7.6" for main screen and 6.2" for cover screen, not 6" and 2".

    Yeah, it's a nice screen for surfing, I just would not play a game on it, that's why we have monitors. :)

    Thank you Observant MMORPGer!

    Thank you for summoning me! It appears when I imported the article it must have only kept everything after the decimal! I appreciate you notifying me, and everything has been fixed! 

    On a separate note for those interested, I have a video that will summarize much of this and show some actual gameplay with the peripherals used that will go live later today. The article will be updated as well, so keep your eyes peeled on our YouTube if you want to see how the Z Fold 4 plays Cyberpunk 2077, Fallout 76, Guild Wars 2, and more! 

    Happy Posting!

    I just can't see the value in premium phones. Last flagship I had was a Galaxy S7. I would rather own a Retroid Pocket 3 for gaming on the go.

    Not really a fan of smartphones tbh, when it comes to mmo's on one, it seems more like a gimmick than anything, its not as if we are seeing games like TESO, FFXIV or SWTOR etc. being played on them, plus, there is the whole comfort thing, even gamepads offer far better controller/input than mobile phones can support, maybe in the future, but i do not think the tech is currently good enough.

    There's no way in hell I'm going to "game" on my phone.

    I may play solitaire when sitting on the pot, that's about it.

    Not interested in gaming on my phone, my eyes would hate me trying to squint at those tiny screens!

    Brenics ~ Just to point out I do believe Chris Roberts is going down as the man who cheated backers and took down crowdfunding for gaming.
