When embarking on a recent work trip to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset reveal, I wrote a feature about the best folding phones while in transit. I'd packed the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold, Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Honor Magic V3 into my hand luggage for a three-way test, which was enough to sound the alarm at airport security.

It was still in its box in my hand luggage, as a late addition to the party – and, having since moved into it as my full-time phone, I'm now torn over which is my favourite foldable of the moment.
