I like to read with two columns on my 8" and 10" e-readers, just as some people prefer to read in landscape mode without any columns regardless of the size of the reader. Everyone has their own personal preferences. And I assume that whoever buys this folding e-reader, however they use it, will find some kind of use for it.
If I read on my 12.9" iPad Pro, I will use two columns.

It's a cool idea but I know this would distract me constantly. I would not be able to sit still with it.

Looks rather chunky to me, weighs more than my iPhone 13 Pro. I read easily on the phone when out and about, and have a long wait. I don't want or need another device to carry.

I don't get the desire for a foldable reader. I can only read one page at a time. It seems gimmicky to me, a solution for a non-problem.

take 2 phone sized ereaders,
load them up with the same book,
then turn one page with the other one is refreshing
because you actually bought those super slow refresh price tag displays
