Invisible hole punch camera is a big deal and the s23 ultra stylus s pen is small but cool.
Any way we can use this discount code in the UK?
Does it come in pk
Thank you very much for the excellent video.
I am using a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 which is almost 5 years old and it's tiem to upgrade to a newer Samsung. My faithful Galaxy Note 9 has an S-Pen, the functionality of a Secure Folder (where I store all my banking apps and sensitive notes) and most importantly an external Micro SD card slot. The intrinsic memory of my Galaxy Note 9 is just 128 GB but I use an external memory card that gives me an additional 786 GB of extra space.
The Z Fold 5 and the Galaxy S23 Ultra both have a S-Pen (a discrete S-Pen in Z Fold 5 is the biggest disadvantage I think, mainly because I tend to misplace small things). Could you please tell me which phone, the Z Fold 5 and the Galaxy S23 Ultra has Secure Folder and a slot to accommodate an external Micro SD Card to enhance the storage capacity? Thanks so much!
I have a S23 Ultra which I'm going to keep instead of switching to the Fold 5. They're both terrific premium devices! Technically the S23 Ultra has the better specs, but you can get done whatever you need to with either phone for the most part. At the end of the day I would recommend getting whichever one that you like best. You can't go wrong either way.
It is crazy they are charging 800$ more for this phone with the cameras it has and no spen slot
@A42yearoldARAB It does seem a bit crazy how much more they've always charged for the Fold. Especially since the S series has better specs overall. It's obvious they're doing it because of the foldable design. Although, for the price they should find a way to make a slot for the Spen & make the specs equal to the S series.
I think the price could be a little better, like 1500. Granted any price difference makes a little sense since it is a much larger screen, and an additional screen
What you're saying makes sense, but if they're going to put that kinda price tag on it they should at least make the specs equal to the S23 Ultra which has a better camera among several other things. If they did that then I'd be trading in my S23 Ultra in for a Fold 5 right now, but I'm not.
@@davesyakovich3935 oh I 100% agree the specs should be the same, what I thought they would be doing is having a normal fold, then a fold ultra that's larger with the same camera. But the issue is that with the current size, the new 208mp camera just CANT fit inside the thin phone, so it would need to be thicker
As usual, you hit it out of the park! I have an S23 Ultra and a ZF3. I already pre ordered the cream colored ZF5, taking the 800 bux trade-in for the ZF3. Hopefully, Samy will make a version of the S Pen Stand case that they currently offer for the ZF4.
Everyone has been saying S23 Ultra is the best Flagship out of all the phones on the market. Whether or not that's the case, I'm completely satisfied with my S23 Ultra and don't want anything else. The screen quality is amazing, I notice a difference compared to my Note 9, and Note 10+. This latest generation of Note now rebranded to S Ultra series is the best experience I've ever had and I'm completely amazed at its battery life and smoothness. Being able to be a power user and still get better battery life than the same 5000 mA battery on my old Samsung A53u. Samsung really is the best phone manufacturer ever. I've always gone with Samsung as my go too. Even above my old Sony flagship. And One phone
I have my 23 Ultra before launch part of pre-order .. so far I'm satisfied with it and If I ever change years later it would be still something similar to Galaxy series smartphones ..
I switched from the S22 ultra to the Fold 4 for my first fold experience. I was more than ready to switch back to the S23 ultra when it was available - the Fold never lived to my expectations and the gains weren't worth the losses for my needs. Doesn't look like there was much of a change for the 5 so I'm sticking with the S23U. I'd likely choose the pixel fold if i had to go to a fold at this point because of the better form factor, in my opinion
Software on the pixel fold is garbage compared to Samsung fold phones though.
I did the exact same things you did. S22U to Fold 4 back to S23U... Glad I got my Note 23 Ult.... S23 Ultra BACK!!!
For the last 2 years I've enjoyed my z fold 3 but now I'm looking to get the s23 ultra. The foldable form factor has kinda worn out its welcome
I'm still torn between the two. I can not decide which one I want
if you say form factor, honor magic v2 is the best i think ;)
Bro youre one of my favorite TH-camrs my man SakiTech always got the videos I NEED to see .
I'd like to have the fold if it had the s23 ultra camera. But since it doesn't. I'll wait for the s24 ultra
Exactly
Pero si el S24 ultra va a ser igual que el S23 ultra en camaras no va a cambiar nada y el resto tampoco va hacer todo igual 🤣🤣🤣🤣 yo que tú me lo pensaría dos veces pero bueno cada uno es cada uno allá tú si te quieres comprar un teléfono igual 🤣🤣🤣
I would probably like the fold if it had a wider outside screen
Agreed 👍
Well then it wouldn't be one handed use would it 🙄
@@kellymorton6001 yeah but who buys folding phone for one hand use 🤷♂️. I mean fold looks beautiful when it gets unfold so when it stays folded I would like to see outer design as S23U no matter how many hand we have to use for it lol
@@Arxh_shortswhile a wider front screen would be nice. It's nice the way it is because front screen can be one handed and convenient but then you can open it up for 2 handed
@Arxh_shorts but not to wide. I actually don't like the pixel fold it's too wide and short. But a smige wider would be nice
A good succinct and informative review - thank you.
Thank you so much for this info!! ❤
As always great video. Thanks so much
Thanks again for wonderful informative decision making information on important cost effective choices. You covered EVERYTHING PERFECTLY. I really won't know until I get the fold to see if it's a good fit. Love your videos. Thanks so much for all you do. You help alot of people.
Rocking an S21 Ultra. One main reason I bought it was for Dex. I have a Samsung monitor with a keyboard and mouse connected to it. I wirelessly run Dex to the monitor and get my multifunction needs taken care of. It's also nice to have the keyboard/mouse.
Dex is highly under reviewed in my opinion.
Thank you, a very good comparison between the two models.
As long as any Fold X has no S-Pen slot, there is no convincing me to put $600 bucks more onto the counter!
Also, the outer screen w/o S-Pen support is a major downer for me as well as the narrow width.
I'll rather wait and enjoy my S22 Ultra for a couple more years or so.
that and your s22u has better cameras
Thanks a lot for this video. It has helped me decide on the S23 Ultra (I've been an iPhone user for the past 5+ years)!
Thank you that was very clear educational snd very helpful
I'm going from the s22 ultra to the fold 5. It'll be my first fold and I'm excited for it.
hos is it? im looking into getting one
Nice review ! Thanks now im already decided to switch from iphone 12 pro max to s23 ultra 😊
After having the Z Fold 3 and 4 both fail on me due to the interior screen defects I have lost faith in the Fold Line. I went back to the S23Ultra Line and Ive been very happy. I do miss the larger screen and the multi tasking ability on the fold but to satisfy my need I purchased a Tab S8+ that I carry with me.
Yeah, 100% agree. Had Fold 3 and 4 and I'm done, until they fix the screen protector lifting after a few months. Always had to send my phone in for week to replace it, because there is no proper Samsung Center around, and even that went wrong one time.
True but I have confidence the folds will get better
The fold 5 is supposed to be better
@@jameslopez3450 Yeah, that's what we've been told before the Fold 3, Fold 4 and now the Fold 5... just wait for a few months and remember the words of Einstein.
Still rocking my S22U. Will wait for s24 ultra or fold 6 with inserted s pen, better camera, better form factor like thr pixel fold and good battery
Every year same 😂 better everything
Why no wait for the s29s I’m sure is going to be better
Ppl could just say I rather spend $$$ on the next upcoming one as I just recently got the current phone I have.
@@o_KingOfKings_owhy not wait for the s20000000
Love my S23 Ultra. amazing photos
Well I've always been a Samsung Galaxy Note user but I'm looking for something different so I'm going to try the fold five for the first time so I hope my experience will be great❤
I have the S23 Ultra absolutely love it but this Fold 5 looks amazing I am not replacing my S23 Ultra but definitely open to getting the Fold 5 on a separate contract
i really want the fold 5, just wish it had the same camera as my s23 ultra
my feelings exactly!
@@mommydearest402I know right. It would make more sense because it’s more expensive
Me too. I use it as a secondary phone to my iPhone 14 Pro Max, I really love the S23 Ultra's form factor, battery life, and cameras. That blur, front facing camera, etc are all top notch. People thought I took some pics on my Canon R6 DSLR, and the thing with smart phones is. I prefer the colors that they produce with their chips. Looks so clean. Absolutely wild but I miss the Fold 4 and I can sacrifice a little battery if I got over the camera aspect.
That's my wish, I will wait for fold 6 maybe the camera will be much better off like the 23ultra 😊
@enochxander hopefully, but at that point, the s24 ultra will be out with a better camera. SAMSUNG really needs to keep the fold cameras on par with the S Ultra line for me to buy.
I’m only getting the fold 5 due to me watching videos and movies on my past time. Taking a tablet everywhere won’t help cause not every place has wifi . And I refuse to spend extra money on portable hotspot. So I’ll stick with the fold. If I get tired I’ll trade in for the 23U or a later model.
you do know that you can hotspot from your phone to your tablet right?
@@johnny-mnemonic13 yes but there is no use.. I did that already with my tablet and it ran all my gb out.
I'm changing to the Fold 5 after having the S23Ultra for only 5 months. I'm hooked on these folding phones but I keep going back to the S models from fear of the folder breaking. Hinges and screens change every model but I have yet to find one that I would keep for more than a year. The S23 ultra was very hard to trade in I must say.
If I am being honest, you should use any flagship phone for at least 2 years to actually get your money's worth out of it. But the Fold 5 is very exciting, I must agree. The 6th Fold will have the IP 68 dust and water resistance, which the current Folds don't have (just the water resistance, IP X8, no dust resistance).
Can you show extended example in which internal display is used for web browsing? I have noticed that almost no reviewer in their reviews of foldable phones show examples of web browsing. I would like to see comparison between normal phone and foldable phone in that regard. I am curious how well internal screens of foldable phones are optimized to show more text, more content of web pages. I have a feeling there is the same amount of text shown just bigger and that oversized pictures are dominating the web pages making the experience less than ideal.
I'm still happy with my old S10 plus.
Hey Saki! Great review! I'm typing on my ZFold 3. Now, this fablet beast doesn't slow down, and updates have increased battery life during the day. The Fold5 would be a much needed radio antennas and internals upgrade since 5G has moved out of infancy. 🎉
Thank YOU!
Great comparations video.
I'm using Note20ultra since the releasing day. It's still fast (for me), and with 512GB micro SD, it meets all my needs for work and home. But should I pick one of these 2 phones, It will be the S23ultra, it's because of 1st: Most movies today are either 16:9 or 21:9 format... the ""square display tablet size" of Zfold5 will not benefit much in term of bigger screen when watching movies, and 2nd: The weight, the thickness, smaller battery size, and no S-pen built-in of Zfold5 will disappoint me. The only thing that I like about the Zfold5 is the front camera locate under the screen. I wish the next S24ultra will have that technology. That's being said, my Note20ultra is so far so good as I'm typing this comment right now :D
Thank you Saki, love your channel as always.
I'm thinking the same thing. The only two disadvantages of the S23Ultra are the curved edge screen. I absolutely hate that on my Note 20 Ultra. And, as you mentioned, the camera cutout. I wish it were an under screen camera but I'm used to the camera being visible and it doesn't really bother me. But the curved edge of the screen pisses me off on my Note20. When I go to tap the screen, my palm brushes up against the screen and either clicks a link I didn't want to click, or makes the screen unresponsive since it's detecting two touch points and doesn't know which to respond to.
I preordered the Fold5 for the larger screen so I can watch movies when I'm on trips, but when I actually saw one of them in a store, the screen just isn't large enough to make that worthwhile since, as you said, the aspect ratio with movies and most TV shows will make half the screen unused anyway. I'm seriously considering taking advantage of the Samsung Swap thing once I get my Fold5. I checked the prices of both and with all the discounts they're doing, the Fold5 is $50 cheaper than the S23U and they're offering to switch them for only $1 more. So basically, I can get the S23U for $49 less than I could have if bought outright. I'm also going to be pretty paranoid about the Fold screen breaking, and much much less paranoid about the S23u breaking. My Note20U has survived quite a few drops that I'm sure would break the Fold5 and the S23U is much more durable than the Note20U.
I also have same feedback , Note 20 ULTRA , is the best phone till now . I played puBG like mad . Great performance
I have the s23 Samsung ultra and I love it. The battery needs charging only twice a week. The sound is great.
I just purchased flip 3 but due to battery life and small form factor I switched to fold 3 in just 15 days. After 3months with fold internal screen damaged while just dropping from a chair. Now I switched to samsung s23 ultra and enjoying it's a excellent phone. For fold / flip you need extreme care for handeling.
I just returned to my fold 5 for the S23 Ultra. I work at a cellular store and im on my Phone literally over 15 hours a day youtube always running ect and the fold 5 battery just wasnt up to par for my usage. Plus not coming with the spen and a better camera I just decided to return
Sakitech, great review, two different animals but the fablet battery life is my greatest concern. Fold4 vs Fold5. Noticed in your video, Fold 5 showing 2 days left and full charge 4 days 4 hours. What would your Fold 4 battery screen show in comparison?
I've used the z fold 5 and had the 85% setting on and tbh at least for me it seems run somewhat quick
In my opinion the outside screen is too small for normal use, and the inner screen is amazing, but too big for regular use and there is big unused gaps when watching videos unless you zoom in, which will make you miss lots from the videos. The ultra was a better fit for me, still has a huge screen, always have the pen on hand, way better cameras, better battery life and never have the need to have 3 apps open
Agree
Considering no movies are in the 4:3 aspect ratio, I'm assuming the images we are watching on full screen without the black bars are cut on the sides since they were likely originally in the 16:9 format. This means when you watch a movie (in the 21:9 format) or a youtube video (16:9) you will end up having the exact same movie/YTvideo real-estate area you get on the S23 ultra (perhaps even less seeing as S23 ultra is actually marginally longer than the fold), which is unfortunate for Fold users considering so much new screen area is mostly going unused for what actually matters most in terms of screen size (movies/series and videos). For reading general website browsing, news articles and drawing, the fold is better however, since the additional screen area outside of those 16:9 is actually being used
Why no one is talking about this is beyond me!? You’re exactly right! So you’re either watching an extremely zoomed in movie or video or you’re dealing with huge black bars on the screen. It’s just not super practical for watching content in its current form factor, in my opinion.
@@MrOldskool1974 I know right? 😁Sometimes I think it's a matter of people being so into that brand that they just can't find it in themselves to criticize it and/or possibly having created so much expectancy for this fold technology to be phenomenal that they just can't bring themselves to point out this issue :) It reminds me of some old super-hyped TV-shop gadgets which people really exaggerated the heck out of its supposed "advantages" despite knowing deep down they were unpractical gimmicks in many cases. Like - "I bought it so now I have to really believe it's great in every single way". Not that this fold phone is an unpractical gimmick. It's not. The new vertical area can definitely be used for other things but it's definitely not a change for the best in experience from the multimedia standpoint :)
my thoughts exactly. this is why ive decided against the Fold5 and will wait on the S24 Ultra instead.
Thank you so much for the review infact i do have a S23 ULTRA happy with it, however i also have a tab s8 plus should i replace or buy the s9 tab plus just wanted your review on this.
I do have the S23U and the S8+ also but the super tiny improvements are not worth it to upgrade to the S9+ imo.
i do agree many thanks
Nice job sir
Do they both perform the same with videoing?
This was really so helpfull you are really great thankyou and i liked the fold5
ZFOLD 5 is a beast. Was thinking about upgrading to the s24 ultra. Even though thats gonna be a top notch phone, and i usually upgrade my phones every time they come out with the latest and greatest (my addiction 😂). Im sticking with the fold 5 this time 💪
Thank you for simplifying it easier.. I made a decision
I was a Sprint customer and now finally have switch over to T-mobile which I am on the essential plan so in order for me to per-order the z fold 5 to qualify for the $1000 off a t mobile rep has told me I also need to upgrade my plan to the 5g plus plan which I believe cost more then the plan I already have don't know why I need to change my plan to order this phone?
Why I won't purchase a Samsung Fold 5. I'm too rough on these phones. A solid phone does not break like the Fold. Eventually the Fold causes problems with the wiring. My last fold lost it's Bluetooth setting.
Personally I don't like flipping, folding phones, I'm looking forward to S24 Ultra
I keep my phone long term, 3-4 years until security update is done. Problem with folding phone is that, there are no long term durability review for my use case. I still use my Note 10 plus and I can vouch for its durability. Now I'm waiting for my s23 ultra for my upgrade.
I imagine the drawing experience is still better on the S23 Ultra. Drawing a straight line across the middle dip would be very annoying and lead you to drawing mostly on either side thus losing the benefit of a larger canvas.
Yes but drawing a straight line down the crease would be a breeze 😅
@ballstank3904 Nice Rhymes
Well he just did it on the fold. Soooo
Waiting for my fold 5. Had the s22 and s23 ultra $1k for s22 did it for me. I'll bring the s23 if I am taking a ton of pics or heading to the beach🎉
I'm confused...your video title says Fold 5 but the text in your video and even some points where you talk about it say Fold 4. So which are you reviewing here?
I would like to add that we can use 3 apps in s23U also, 1 in pop view and 2 in split screen
Does the front screen have s pen functions?
Rushed the video? Your table of contents references Fold 4
Something nobody mentions with screen size is ultra wide content is actually larger on the S23 Ultra. The Z Fold is shorter.
Hi Saki and folks, I'm trying to pre-order mine and I don't see anywhere those $50 that they were giving when the reservation was made, which I did through a link here. Can someone tell me what's up with this?
When you checkout you will see prices have dropped by $50. I got it.
It gets automatically added but if you don't see it, add another fold 5 to your cart then at checkout remove the more expensive one. I think this is a bug where sometimes the $50 wasn't applied and I found this method to work for me
Make sure you're logged into your Samsung account when you're making the pre-order. The $50 is a credit towards other accessories, not sure if it's taken off the price of the phone. But Samsung definitely skimped out on the pre-order incentives and credit value this year.
I have a s21 ultra and I'm due for an upgrade. Not sure what to do lol.
Best vid ive ever seem comparing the two
Your a hero
Fold 5 it is!
I have the s23 ultra and will be sticking with it

Are you sure that both processors are the same ? The one in the zfold 5 is optimized for Samsung.
The Fold is an intriguing device, but I already have a Tab S8. I think I'll upgrade from my Note 10+ to the S23 Ultra while it's on sale, the Fold is still expensive after the discount. I just wish that both phones had expandable storage like my Note.
Just went from the fold to the s23 ultra, I loved the fold while I had it but it broke numerous times from what was considered faulty folding screens, they replaced it but it's not worth the hassle until the tech is better.
which fold did you have?

I traded in my iphone 13 pro Max for the fold 5. Kept my S23 ultra. Hope I don't regret trading in my my 13 pro Max. But I did get $1000 trade in
You did great 👍👍👍
Getting rid of any rotten apple is always the right choice 😇
For an iPhone 13 pro max, $1000 is cheap compared to what you could have sold it for. Just saying
best guy. all u need to do is see this review and you are done. no need to do further research!. for me z fold is a clear win as its truely a tech marvel!
@sakitech The Fold 5 does it for me and I have taken advantage of the special deal trading in the Flip 4
I would love to see the S23 ultra Fold😮😮 That would be a Wet Dream❤
I got a fold 5 and i been thinking of getting the s24 ultra , just because of a bad experience with the inner screen and also i found out i dont really open the big display as much as i thought!! Camera is disappointing too
If & when Samsung puts the S-Pen onboard the Fold, I'll seriously consider switching.
Would you recommend the S23 ultra to do some university work? Or is the fold 5 better?
Still rockin' the last three Galaxy Note smartphones. My Note 9 Note 10 Plus and Note 20 Ultra. All are still doing their assigned tasks well. The S23 Ultra or S24 Ultra will replace the Note 10 Plus hopefully before the first of the new year.
I've had the note 20 ultra since release and it's still an amazing phone! I have still have my note 9 and 10+ also😂 just ordered the fold 5 but I don't know if I wanna give em my note 20 for the $800 off...
@@7KingCobra7 My sister wants my Note 10 Plus. You're right. The Galaxy Note 20 Ultra is amazing. I really love it. The Galaxy Fold Phones seem OK. I'm not sold on them quite yet. I'm giving the Galaxy S23 a very hard look as well. Ordering directly from Samsung.
@grovermayersjr8025 right on! Ya the s23 ultra is probably an incredible phone! If I'm not 100% happy with the fold I'm trading it for the s23
Had the Z Fold 4 great phone but the outside screen was the deal breaker for me, I’m sticking with the S23 Ultra!!!
When my Fold5 gets here, I'll have both. Trading in my Fold 3
I have a question: How does the fold hold up in colder climate? I live in Indiana, so we can get very cold.
Should I upgrade from my Fold 3 to Fold 5? I just use it for everyday phone with most activities on Whatsapp, emails, TH-cam, sometimes Netflix & Spotify and occasionally gaming (COD) and taking photos (just regular photos, not zooming). My Fold 3 battery usually will die down from full charge at 7am to around 7pm (need to top up with powerbanks).
@dkojongian....I have the same question 🤔. I have a Z Fold 3 5G due for an upgrade in early November. I already have the S Tab 6 tablet, 2nd generation Galaxy watch, and the Galaxy Go Book 5G, so my Samsung eco system is set up. After watching several TH-camrs reviews on the Z Fold 5, I'm beginning to think I might be wasting my $$$$ upgrading to the Z5. Bigger question is does the SG23U have DeX?
Excellent video! I'll go with the S23 Ultra, but hoping for an S24 Ultra Fold next year!
How do you make a color with color pic with black an white background? S23 Ultra
I got the galaxy z fold 3 just upgraded to the fold 5 (wprk phone). I also have the S23 ultra whoch i love. . . . Best of both worlds!
Excellent video! As informative as it was, I'm still unsure of my decision. I'm leaning Z fold 5 just because of the technology. The other downside to both products is protecting them. I use Otterbox Defender on all my phones and tabs. They're expensive. I'm sure you already know that. But I haven't come across a protective case for the fold 5 that i'm comfortable with. I'm going to Verizon this evening to upgrade. Thanks again for the vid.
I JUST BOUGHT THE GALAXY S23 ULTRA $899 BLACK FRIDAY SALE...IT'S PEAK PERFORMANCE ‼️
how about DeX? does z fold 5 has got DeX?
Please advise me, if money is not a problem, I'm a student who reads 3HRS every day and do a lot of research which of the two would you recommend, but above all this is a very good review and I love it
Go for zfold 5, im also a medical student and im going for fold 5 as it will be much more productive for me and it will be also helpful for making notes on the go.
Fold phones have a probability of the ribbon cable for the inner screen detaching after warranty, very expensive to fix!
I had a z fold 4 and changed it with s23 ultra. It was fine but a) i hated the narrow front screen especially while texting, bear in mind I swipe and b) not being able to use the S pen on the front screen was a hassle as i use it for the most part of my day. It wasnt always practical to unfold and write.
As someone that use the calculator/date/time/excel… having a large portable pocket sized screen is definitely handy… the large screen looks great for retro-gaming/gaming as well 🔥
Ain’t gonna lie, I started as an apple fan, and throughout the years I’ve become a Samsung fanboy
I still think Apple is a great overall company… but they OD rely on their iPhone for sales and they’re running out of ideas for it since you hardly see anything new in phones. I think this is why Samsung merged their Galaxy and Note series into one & they made the Flip and Z folds to attract some form of innovation in a market that’s over saturated/run out of ideas at this point

A few years ago I switched from the Galaxy S21 Ultra to the iPhone 12 Pro Max. A years ago I switched to the 13 Pro Max. This time around I’m going back to Droid. I waited and am going to buy the Fold 5 tomorrow.
I’m tired of Apple’s BS more than anything. That said, my 13 Pro Max does have several issues which a year old phone shouldn’t have.
1) the battery is already saying its maximum charge is 80%
2) more and more lately the phone isn’t recognizing the charge cable
3) it has been getting very hot under load, the strange thing is that using the same apps hasn’t caused it to heat up until now
4) notifications no longer work properly, I don’t get alerts for texts at all now
having an s23 ultra and tab s8 ultra makes one not really care about folables. the big screen experience on the tab s8 ultra is unmatched. the s23 ultra takes care of everything else
I've the same setup and can't see a reason to change.
I have both and still have a foldable. S23 Ultra on the go and the Z Fold at home and traveling.
What i am gathering from this so far. They are both great phones.
Did you wrote wrong the announcement from titles!! Just you wrote all time fold 4....best regards
Did they get rudnof the crease?? Would never buy one until than..
FOLD 5 ULTRA... needs to be a thing 🎉
Why are these great offers only in the USA & not in the UK?
Nice video Sr! I’ve been a 10 yr iPhone sheep and for 1st time will be switching to Android and the Fold 5 is my chosen device and your video helped a lot to decide. Thanks sr! You just gain a subscriber, well done.
Welcome to the Samsung community, i myself was a Apple sheep most my life until i switched to a 22 ultra and I dont regret it
You start talking about the Fold 4 at 5:45 ... I had to stop and check the video I clicked on.. like.. Wait a minute!..
So the difference between the ultra and the fold is that one folds open and one doesn't? Man thats indane insight. You are a great teviewer for age 65+
Question for Saki. Which would you choose if you could only get one?!
I hope these trade in deals continue for the S24 series.. Really hope the good deals come back
