Anonymous, 15 Aug 2021Buds2 vs Buds Pro? Which is better?You can complain about the cameras being unchanged, but I am pretty sure that when they do upgrade the cameras, you'll be complaining about the obvious price increase.

It is always a balancing act, and for this time, Samsung focuses more on getting the Fold a little bit accessible for all. That is what I think is a win when talking about foldables.

    Dometalican, 15 Aug 2021Z Flip would have been good but that small battery with 15W... moreZ flip is lovely concept but disappointing camera for the price is no go
    If someone buys it they will buy it for the tech no advantage in any parts

      Z Flip would have been good but that small battery with 15W charging is such a turnoff. My wife likes the look but I feel she would be bothered by the battery life in time. To her and myself, it's the most important aspect in a phone so this would be a no-sale.

        Peter UK, 15 Aug 2021Have to disagree with statement of watch 4 being best... It... moreEven if you have a Samsung phone you may not be able to access all functions as it's region specific. My phones is Taiwan variant & watch is UAE variant, can't use ECG or Blood vitals. It gives an error on the phone as not available in your region.

          Yeah its more durable than previous ones but we all were expecting the s pen to be embedded in the body just like note. It would have been a real upgrade from fold 2. Also the front outer display is still somewhat of weird ratio. And its still not slim and light enough. Then there are challenges with battery endurance.

            Peter UK, 15 Aug 2021Have to disagree with statement of watch 4 being best... It... morerather than a hot take this just felt like a summary of the event and releases....

              Have to disagree with statement of watch 4 being best... It has potential but if you don't have Samsung phone you can only use heartsensor for your workouts. It's sad, WearOS with all the goodies blocked untill you buy Samsung phone. No PPG, ECG, and BIA. Meh...
