Samsung's new Galaxy Z Fold 6 is a perfectly fine foldable, but from the brand that started the whole category, is that still enough?

I'm looking at the line up of foldables and wondering

  1. do I even really need one? I kinda want one, they look cool, but is it really that much better than a normal phone?

  2. should I even consider the Galaxy when the Honor V3 looks like it's comparable specs with better battery and a thousand dollars cheaper?

Tho the latter requires figuring it how to get and use one in the US.

I have found my Fold most useful for work stuff. I can view and edit word and excel documents with plenty of space to see everything. I can do it anywhere when I have some free moments without lugging around another device. For casual stuff like Lemmy and web surfing it's just really nice to read more with less scrolling.
