Why buy the Mix Fold 2
- Thin for a foldable, even today. 11.2mm closed makes it pocketable in a way many early folding phones were not.
- A normal-shaped cover screen. The 6.56-inch outer display is wide enough to type and browse on without opening the phone.
- Still capable hardware. The Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 and 12GB of RAM handle split-screen work and most games well.
- Up to 1TB of storage. A rare option if you want to carry a large film or document library on a tablet-sized screen.
