The phone is great, however, when I want to trade my Initial Fold 5G 500GB, they give me £450 back. How can a phone worth £1900 less than 2 years ago be traded for that little money! A joke!

    It is very strange that Samsung is not following Apple in one thing. I have been to mobiles shops and big tech distributors in the city. I was trying to get Samsung Phone which was released last year, but no one is having it. Even when S21 was just announced , not released I was looking for S20, every big vendors say out of stock. Even yesterday i went to buy something i saw S20 was on display, i asked the vendor for S20, he said out of stock. What is logic behind this samsung policy. A copycat of apple, why it is not following its master? REASON? Apple old Phones are plenty in market .

      I will get one of these when the screen becomes "real" glass.

          Excited for this years Galaxy Fold3. The first one was a concept. Second one was a nice upgrade and the third one should take care of any issues that the first two had. Hopefully the outer screen is wider and body thinner due to components being added to width. That alone will be enough to get me to purchase.

            I'll not be buying a new Samsung device this year like I usually do because the Z Fold 3 does not have the S Pen integrated into the device making it an unacceptable replacement for the Note 20 ultra.

            Looks like they have someone in control who has no clue how important the S Pen is to millions of Samsung fans.

              It has been 3 years since i switched to apple
              Was tired waiting for updates on android
              There are some features that i miss, also some apple features that i would love android to have
              I tried my gf’s samsung last week, its on android 11 now, was pretty smooth. It was nostalgic how i used to re arrange my homescreen screen and made it look so good all the time.
              Anyways i kinda missed not having an android
              But at the same time, as i have gotten used to ios
              I really don’t feel the need to change my phone for another year or 2, definitely gonna keep an eye on pixel.

                Am rocking a Note 9. Still the best phone ever made. Audio jack. Notchless punch hole free display. Very fast despite its age. Superb cameras. Reliable. Works in rainstorm, as I learned this Sunday here in UK when caught in a storm whilst videoing and event using the 4K 60fps mode. If the Fold3 can run the sort of pro level apps my 2020 11" iPad Pro can, I'll upgrade. An iPad in my pocket is appealing.

                  sixtymes, 27 Jul 20211: My wife's S20 battery last longer than my iphone 12... moreIs it the Exynos or the Snapdragon version that both your wife and your brother are using? If it's the Snapdragon version, then I can agree with you. But if it's the Exynos version, then you are being completely delusional.

Also samsung is the third largest battery manufacturer and i'm using samsung that has great battery life, great peformance, not quick to overheat (unless its exynos variant), great charging speed etc. They used 45w on their s20 ultra but becuz of low sales they cut the charging speed, ppi, screen size, micro sd slot etc.

                            I must say im hyped! Cant wait to get a hold of the fold 3.

                              If the Z Flip costs the same as a Note wouldn’t have been much of an issue

                                My only issues with Samsung phones are :

                                1. Overheats easily
                                2. Battery is too weak
                                3. Slow charging speed

                                Other than that, i have no problems
