    As if the software was as permanent as the hardware lol

    There’s no guarantee that the software will ever be updated to something that the user finds usable though.

    Google could just one day go “meh, we don’t think folding displays are where we want to be right now”, and - ta-da! - you’re left with a folding doorstop and Google’s got yet another entry on the “killed by Google” list.

      That’s true, but Google Pixels are also one of the few remaining US brands that allows you to somewhat freely unlock the BL

      So custom roms can easily be had, in fact GrapheneOS is one that specifically targets Pixels in general

      It’s the 2nd biggest reason I didn’t jump onto the Foldy bandwagon with Samshit (#1 being how damn narrow the cover screen is)
