Phones Folding phones the next frontier

Had a discussion in another thread about how I always thought my Z Folds showed less on web pages than slab phones when using the inner display due to the squarish and many sites scaling everything based on width. I was wondering if I had configured it all wrong or something.
Is it possible for someone with a Z Fold (or Pixel 9/10 Pro Fold) to post a screenshot from something like the Macrumors front page? Would help me a lot to see how much is actually shown when using the inner display.

Thanks! Is that with Samsung browser? Is it different in Chrome? And did you do anything to make it show more vertically?
Yup! It's the Samsung browser... compared to Chrome, extension support and I like the UI better.
Not quite sure... web page text size is 100%, maybe due to developer minimum width and font size & style within setting.
Was wondering if you see more of the websites in Samsung browser compared to Chrome?
Ahh okay, yeah it might. I just remember comparing to my iPhone Pro Max phones and it actually showing less vertical information on many webpages so trying to understand what is different.
Thanks!These are from a Z Fold 5 and Pixel 10 Pro, both with brave browser.
The top picture is more what I’m used to with the folds I’ve had, where you don’t really show more vertical information than slab phones. And quite different from what @Ludatyk showed, is the newer Z folds having a wider screen or something else like the browser that differs?
Well, one thing stands out from what @scott craft showed... mobile site is displayed. Here is a look of it on the Edge Browser...occasionally I use.
@Ludatyk, what's your Zoom set at in the Samsung Browser? My default of 85% Text size and 100% Zoom makes it look more like what you'd see on a slab phone, regardless of mobile or desktop mode. However, if I Zoom out to 67% then I can see the whole MacRumors page, including sidebar, like your first screenshot.
Well for reference it came 68% out the box and I got 4 hours screen on time while setting it up and using it normally etc
Will have to see how it goes generally though
That isn't too shabby and equates to roughly 6 hours for firts day and initial setup. I think that's consistent with my past Folds, if not better, for day 1.
I just checked it with the desktop site requested and it was pretty similar. Brave might render pages different than chrome and Samsung Internet. Maybe I'll check later if I feel ambitious.
It's at 75%.
What is your font size & style set at? And have you changed your minimum width in developer setting?
Yep, I’m gonna have to put you on ignore for a while 😂Dex on a foldable
So hard to resist 🤦🏻♂️
I'm interested the price when it comes to USYep, I’m gonna have to put you on ignore for a while
So hard to resist
Same. Can’t wait. I’m still loving my ZF7 but this one is gonna be really hard to resist. Hopefully there will be good trade in offers for ZF7 or S25U.
It's your 75% zoom setting that's displaying the full width MacRumors homepage.
My Text size is 85% and Zoom is usually at 100% to avoid blank space on the sides with other websites. Playing around with the Zoom setting, 75% seems to be the minimum to display the full width MacRumors homepage on Samsung browser.
Hopefully no more than $3k. The lesser the better, of course. Some other regions retailed for $3200.
Will say Z tri fold has anti reflective screen protector on built in
Very good just like s25 ultra main screen
Very good just like s25 ultra main screen
Maybe Samsung thinks anti-reflective properties will make the two TriFold creases less noticeable (though past foldable creases never bothered me).
S25 ultra vs Samsung Z tri fold
Anti reflective screen basically same and maybe slightly better on tr fold due to anti reflective screen protector
