I don't see a screen protector on the outer display but there is one on the inner display (Fold 5)
Very very unlikely, don't get your hopes up.
It definitely looks like it opens completely flat to me, like 180 degrees.
Wtf my phone won't turn on anymore after I licked it wat do?
I also actually daily drive the TicWatch Pro 3! I know Mobvoi is working on a Wear OS 3 update for the watch, but it's still in private beta and probably won't roll out soon for regular users.
I'm personally interested in the Watch 6 because it runs Wear OS 4 based on Android 13 out of the box and thus has access to a bunch of Wear OS apps I currently can't get on my TicWatch lol.

Hmm, can't really pick one, I'm just an overall fan of how "stock Android-like" Nothing OS 2.0 is, and I mean that in the sense that Nothing has largely retained the design language of Pixel Android (Material You) and has borrowed many GMS features (like Safety Hub, Game Dashboard, etc.)

Coming from the Zenfone 9, it definitely strains my hand more since it's larger and heftier.
-
Glyph lights definitely don't replace the regular torch functionality in terms of light coverage (btw, in Nothing OS 2.0, you can now long-press the Flashlight QS tile to turn on all Glyph lights at once).

It did not come with a case in the box.

I'll have to come back to this one, as I can't do any comparisons.
File based encryption is not functionally "the same thing". The AOSP documentation explains how FBE works much more accurately.
There might be, though I couldn't find any. I poked around /data on a rooted Pixel that had just booted but hadn't had its primary user unlocked yet, and I was able to access most files in /data/system still.
Android devices stopped using FDE a while back. In fact, support for FDE was removed entirely in Android 13.
Haven't had the Fold 5 for long enough to really comment on the hinge durability but I'm not worried about hinge right now though.
As for which device I want to daily drive, I'm most looking forward to using the Z Fold 5 since I do a lot of work on my phone and I think I'll take advantage of the multitasking capabilities.
