You should state how tall & heavy you are also.
It's not a surprise that you are bewildered. There is a lot to consider and to choose from in the world of folding bikes.
For the recreational travel riding that you're describing, and assuming you're 6' and under, many here (including me) have suggested the Downtube Mini or Dahon Curve as a good choice. They're not for riding centuries or Time Trialing, but they're excellent fun bikes with good travel characteristics. Oh, and they're great values also.
There's a lot of info comparing the Mini and the Curve on this Forum. A search would yield much for you to read and consider.
