HP has entered the competition for foldable laptops with its Spectre Fold, claiming it to be the world's thinnest and smallest 17-inch foldable PC, although its starting price of $4,999.99 makes it one of the most expensive laptops ever released in this category.
LG has announced its first foldable laptop, the Gram Fold, which features a 17-inch tablet-like display when unfolded and can also be used as a 12.2-inch laptop when folded, offering portability and versatility in one device.
Foldable laptops offer more practicality and potential for growth compared to foldable phones, with benefits including a large screen in a compact form factor, more versatility in terms of form factors, and less hassle to carry around.
