  • I jumped to foldables when Fold 3 hit the market. Never looked back, I really liked that form factor. Tri-Folds are another story, as long screen isn’t hard and scratch resistant as normal glass, I could never even think about getting one.

    And there is higher price to pay and some things you need to look out (ex. inner screen) when being early adopter. I knew this and I don’t have issue with that, but it’s not for everyone.

    I had to replace inner screen protector ~once a year with Fold 3. Don’t know how Fold 6 will handle that. …tho I never paid a cent for inner screen protector replacement. First time was paid by Samsung (it was under warranty), second time shop broke screen while they were removing protector, so I got new inner screen + battery + screen protector for free. Third time I had to replace that protector, I sold my phone before I could do that and switched to Fold 6 🤷

    Depends on usage. If you don’t need super fast speeds or low latency, go for cheaper model.

    If you need low latency and high speeds (ex. Wireless VR with PC), you need to pay more to get good and stable connection (+ multiple routers as mesh if needed). And more expensive devices have different CPU/RAM which will help you if you have large network + extra security features on.












  • For voice calls, most use regular phone calls here, it just works better (and VoLTE/VoWiFi is great addition to sound quality). Apps are only used when you are making video calls.

    As for messages, it’s much easier to send images/videos via whatsapp/signal than it’s via SMS. + replies/reactions. Probably main reason why people use apps instead SMS (even while many/most of our plans include unlimited data/sms/calls). RCS added those features IIRC, but why switch to another solution while apps works just fine and most of people already are used to Whatsapp 🤷‍♂️

    And most of the people here has Whatsapp installed, so usually you don’t have to guess what app to use :P
