Also feels after LG came out, there is even less of new experimental designs.

Don't telle you can't tell the difference between wqhd+ and HDTV either the difference is huge. That along with just like dude said above ...YOU CANT FOLD GLASS. FOLDS ARE A JOKE.

                  Boring doesn’t mean bad, candybar phones are very polished from every single part and the form factor works great and there’s nothing which can beat it. Companies been perfecting that form factor for over 10 years and going to do in future too.

                  Foldables might be fresh and exciting, but when the novelty fades away there’s not much left and then people see that the experience itself isn’t that great, that’s why second hand markets are full of these Samsung foldables with fraction of original price. I know users who said foldables are best thing ever made and future of smartphones and yet they sold them after like month of using and bought another candybar phone.

                    I'll post a short list soon.”

                    I save your time, they already fine tuned them with their S22 ultra 😁 you can get all the bells and whistles by buying their flagship phone, if you buy foldable you just get folding technology, pretty much everything else is worse and yet you pay lot for it just because it folds 🤷🏻‍♂️

                    I don’t think foldables will ever replace candy bar phones, if something will replace them it will be something else than folding phones. Maybe rollable or VR glasses or something else, not foldables.

Bloatware removed and animations on 0.5 speed. Aod turned off. And I got about 3.5 hours more on daily basis. Oh yeah, nfc turned off every time I'm done using it. Sadly only Nokia has the best network connection option on any phones! Turn off 2g/3g and 4g for only using 5g. Or only 4g/5g only. The other two are also just battery killers. 5g connection is mostly covered on my island. There speed is a totally different story. Still only 4g+ speeds. 500Mb.

No, folding phones are all stupid until someone manages to actually fold glass that's as tough as the display glass on regular smartphones. Not this nonsense with crease and fingernail indentations. Also the big pink elephant in the room, aspect ratio when unfolded is useless for 3/4 of things because it's square and not wide rectangular like almost all content...

It cant even search the internet in my Galaxy watch 4 but thankfully Google assistant came to the rescue. Maybe your device could be different because in my S20+ I only get about 30 mins to 1 hour.
                            Did you disable the bixby app?

                                        vrvly, 12 Aug 2022Goodbye 10x zoom and 1" sensor. But its the future lol.normal phones will not end. probably,flagships will have bigger sensors and perscope zooms. but,foldables will have one older gen cameras with limited zoom. definitely folding phones will always have less internal space so,they have to sacrifice battery and camera compared to standart phones.we cannot deny physics.
