I definitely understand what you're saying. I had my Fold 4 for 2 years and had no durability issues. Others may have had problems. I guess I'm lucky. I enjoy my Fold 7. Of course a tablet is bigger, but if we go down that road, so is a 13, or 14" MACBOOK PRO. In my house, we have a very nice 65" TV, but sometimes my wife or I will watch a video on my MACBOOK pro or her iPad. Is that a compromise? I think so, yet we're ok with doing it sometimes for convenience, and I think convenience is what many people care about.
