A foldable for mobile Linux would be amazing, I love my PinePhone Pro with keyboard case, but you could use a foldable as a mini laptop with a touch keyboard on the bottom half (maybe not the best experience though). Having a bigger screen for doing productivity stuff especially with an external keyboard would be amazing, but I don’t want Android anymore.
Regarding the keyboard on the bottom, I can imagine some physical keypad accessory for the bottom half, like what Lenovo is doing with their foldable tablet/laptop thingy, just on a smaller scale.
That’s basically what the PinePhone keyboard accessory is. The phone clips into the top half and the bottom half is a physical keyboard. It is essentially a pocket sized laptop. I’m typing on it now and I can actually type much faster on this than any normal touch phone keyboard since you can properly touch type on it.
Not what I’d personally have much use for (kinda like using phone in vertical an in-hand), but yea, leave it to small indie companies to come up with important things.
Ed: but I was referring to this where the keyboard can be attached right to the bottom screen.

That looks sweet. Like a Psion 5.
