In general, I think folding screens are a solution in search of a problem. A marketing gimmick to lure the leading edge adopter crowd. And if you look at it in that light, as a marketing gimmick, it's a pretty good one. But as a functional solution to an actual problem, not so much.
There are probably a few specialized situations where a folding screen might come in handy. But for reading a book or general operation of a smart phone - my answer would be "no, I don't need that" for those uses.
