Amen on free form multi window being a necessity - I can't say I've ever triple tasked, but I absolutely have had floating windows for quick reference (like infographics/calculator/etc)
Force full screen is a must have - the Pixel Folds currently inability to do this makes it a nonstarter for me
DeX is awesome when I need it. I could live without it, but it's really nice to use in a pinch
It's pretty hard to say they last when foldables have been around less than a couple years.
If I don't drop it, I expect to be using my Pixel 4 for years yet. I used a Nexus 5 until a few months ago, and it was probably a decade old by the time I retired it.
That's not to say they won't last as long, I'd love to see it since I'd like to have something with a small pocket size and the screen naturally protected. But it's a bit premature to say they "last".
Don't have the Fold but the Flip 3. I'd say it is pretty much as resistant as any other phone I had. If not more so because the main screen in protected when folded

Is that the case? They seem to last just about like any other phone as long as user error doesn't kill it.
