alt Hacker NewsI have a Duo:
* TouchID (as implemented on Duo specifically) sucks, really hope next gen has FaceID
* Screen ratios make reels-like addictive content less appealing which is great for me
* Inner screen is a game changer for using Agents on the go, absurdly better than a normal phone
I’m keeping mine, the big screen on the go is a completely different level of productivity.

I will get it soon (queued). I'm banking on the if screen for agentic usage.
I'm really hoping they will add face id next gen. I choose the installment purchase just to get the next phone after 11 months offer.
The stupid thing is, fingerprint unlock inside the screen is a long solved tech. The touch sensors on a modern Samsung or Oppo or Xiaomi are literally instant. Why put it on a button on the side? Just to be different? Or is that a patent thing?
Foldable Androids have been around for years, why didn't you get one before?
Same, I was skeptical, but the moment I unfolded it I realized the screen was a whole different animal. I went from saying I don’t use my phone for productivity to using the larger screen instead of Mac. I don’t feel the I need a real computer for this urge.
