You linked a Fold not a Flip. The difference is nearly $1000.

That said the Fold is a solid choice but if you're only going to play games, save a couple bucks and don't get a 6. The improvements have been so incremental you might be able to make due with a 4 or 5.

Do emulators like lemuroid take up the whole screen on the inside of the fold?

I was debating on a tablet or the pixel fold and I saw a video where it showed that the inside screen was basically two screens and man apps just displayed in the middle with black borders on either side.

That's gonna come down to aspect ratio. The inner screen is 4:3 so it might come down to the game? This Gameboy color game doesn't fill the screen but this emulator seems to be more for 3ds. I have the Fold4 for perspective.

Thanks so much for the screenshot!
