In a nutshell:<\/strong> Bill Gates has an impressive CV: co-founder and, at various times, chairman, chief executive officer, president, and chief software architect of Microsoft; the sixth wealthiest person in the world; author; and renowned philanthropist. But what people really want to know is which phone he uses as his daily driver. That question has now been answered, and it seems Gates is a fan of foldables, though not ones from his former company. <\/p>\n

Gates revealed his love for the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 in a Reddit AMA<\/a> last year, saying that it was both a great portable PC and phone. If you’re wondering why he didn’t opt for a Microsoft Surface Duo 2, it’s probably because it isn’t very good<\/a> and not a proper foldable as the device uses two separate panels connected by a hinge.<\/p>\n

Gates took part in another Reddit AMA<\/a> yesterday, where he was asked if he’s using a new phone as a regular daily driver. He is: a Galaxy Z Fold 4. With a personal fortune of $111 billion, the phone’s near $2,000 price tag is unlikely to be a concern for Gates, but it sounds as if he never even paid for the handset as Samsung Chairman JY Lee gave it to him when they met in South Korea.<\/p>\n

We asked ChatGPT to tell us a joke about Bill Gates’ phone, so: Why did Bill Gates get a Samsung Foldable phone? To finally have a window into the future.<\/p>\n

The billionaire confirmed he’s still a fan of Microsoft products by mentioning that he uses Outlook and other software from the Redmond firm on his Z Fold 4. Gates also highlighted the enormous unfolded screen size as a reason not to use a tablet, just the phone and his “portable” Windows PC.<\/p>\n

Another part of the question asked if Gates could confirm rumors that the next Microsoft Duo would ditch the dual screens<\/a> and go for a Fold-style foldable screen. But while Microsoft does involve its former boss in some research and product plans, he is not up to date on its hardware roadmap.<\/p>\n

Like Gates, we love pretty much everything about the Galaxy Z Fold 4, one of the few exceptions being its price, awarding it a score of 85 in our review<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
