Samsung and Google looking at you like...which one of us are you talking about? See what Apple has started. Lol. Even the Pixel 8 and S24 will look like these models.
Got a tip for us?

While I wish it had the SD 8 Gen 2 that's about the only spec that would make this device markedly better. Specs don't mean as much now as they used to. Almost every year flagships see an incremental upgrade at best. The SD 8 Gen 2 chip is the biggest upgrade for Android devices in years but honestly I'm just fine with the Tensor 2. If I need to game or need extra long battery life I'll just pick up my S23U or 14 Pro Max which are almost always nearby. Nothing about this device feels like "last year specs" to me.
couldn't have said it better ...I just love when peeps are concerned about my spending
I definitely wasn't worried on what you spend your money on. I just was curious on how you guys feel about it.couldn't have said it better ...

I'm just busting chops...but seriously I have no issues with this phone...yea would have been nice to have a G3 sensor or better yet Snap gen 2 but for me positives outweigh the negatives...best form factor foldable out in the US now IMO ...and price wise you know they are all in the high range ...
. Who's going to test drive ?
Nothing much really. Just same old same old. But with a bit of dip my toe in water of what next to come in 5 years.
So yeah nothing much but little bit of experience of future at the present time.

I usually put mine on my pixel stand while at my office so I have it charging most of the time during the day. But it seems to get about average battery life. No better or worse than my Z Fold4. I wonder if you are just in an area that doesn't have the best signal and the modem which is subpar for a flagship is having to work hard to hold onto a signal.
I don't know if anyone is interested and thinks this view looks a little bit better than the regular app .. but if you log into Twitter on the web.. you can then hit the three dots menu on the top right and install app and you will see an app icon just like the regular Twitter one in your app drawer ...
Probably won’t be till October, maybe September at the earliest.

Nvm got it
Hmmm
It was there on my first try and then I had the two Twitter apps in my app drawer ..So I bought this, but the fold is too skinny and not flat enough that it would not stay inside it when unfolded
