I never even considered buying a foldable phone, and they're already moving on from that shape.

They aren't moving on from foldable, they are moving on from the shape to a shorter and fatter shaped foldable.

While the form factor does seem nicer for the pocket, and perhaps better when using the cover screen, I fear I would miss the screen real estate of the tall foldable.

Not having to rotate the phone to view either portrait or landscape content is more convenient than I thought.
