Like many, I grew up wearing Levi’s jeans, where a pocket was fundamentally there to hold your phone or wallet. Although pockets have been sewn into clothing for years and have a deep history, the problem I have been facing is how to fit a phone. Sure, pockets haven’t seen any real innovation in many years, but honestly, modern smartphones aren’t designed to fit comfortably inside tight pockets either, especially if you wear trousers or jeans.
Maybe the new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 is exactly what I have been looking for: a phone that becomes almost invisible when tucked into a pocket, yet opens up to become a mini tablet. This isn’t simply a device that folds in half; it’s a passport-sized smartphone that is both fun and functional, a combination that is rarely seen in phones these days.
