Ever since the original Galaxy Fold, Samsung's latest fold has been my pick as the phone I would choose if I could get anyone for free. Yes - the price is a major hurdle for me, especially since I don't need my phone to do more than all the "basic" stuff we've gotten used to, with reasonable speed and convenience. I take good care of my tech, but I would also be worried about opening it up one day, and something is wrong with the inner display. 😅 Good phone tech nowadays is quite reliable and accessible, and I'm not yet willing to trade that for a feature I don't ultimately need. That said, I would make good use of that beautiful extra display, but that day is not yet here for me. 🙃
I definitely agree that the price will be a huge hurdle for a lot of people. Exactly like you mentioned too with the possibility of one day opening the device and the inner screen is just dead lol I will add though that even though it only has happened once, I dropped the Fold 5 caseless from 5 feet high and it completely survived the fall. It taught me to never trust glued-on accessories Lol
@@nerdgrafx Yeah, not a fan of those accessories either. 😂 I'm confident in all the other durability aspects of at least Samsung's foldables - it's just about the uncertainty of such a screen. From what I've heard, Samsung provides a good safety net for this, but then we're back at the price factor.
A bigger outside screen and better battery life for me. Give me that and bye bye s23 Ultra, lol
If the battery life increased even 25% more, this phone would be a beast! 🔥
The OnePlus open has exactly that

@dominodevelopment Exactly! This is where I go to the buying used route. Most of them drop to 50% or less of the original price a year after 😅
The OnePlus Open is better in my opinion. The outer screen is just like a normal phone. Samsung’s is too skinny for me
Yeah, it makes it easier to use one handed, but it's way too narrow if you're using the front screen mainly
