outer screen aspect ratio through the generations:
z fold2 & fold3 = 25:9
z fold4 & fold5 = 23.1:9
z fold6 & fold7 = 22:9
z fold8 & fold9 = 21:9
of course all the fold6 to fold9 are speculations, it disappoints me to imagine not until fold8 will we have the common aspect ratio of cinematography

Asus is a one other hold out though.
I don't like the pill style at all either, so for me that rules out Google and Motorola.

Samsung should think about the inner screen, it should make inner screen more than 8 inches. Or else Samsung will lag behind like Nokia in foldables.

If samsung keep coming out with basically same Folds and Flips each year bcos they feel there is no need for major upgrade due to lack of competition in the global stage, their complacency will come back to haunt samsung

Take my S21 FE for example. It has snapdragon 888 and 8gb Ram but the phone lags and stutters especially when switching between background apps with gestures. And the phone often fail to keep big apps in the the background bcos oneui and countless samsung apps already occupied a huge chunk of the 8gb ram when running.

Do hono... moreDoesn't mean Samsung is still better.
Apple sells the same overprice crap every year, yet they still have the most sales.
Also, as far as I know the only vendors that released their foldsbles outside China is just Samsung, OnePlus, Honor, and Google. And we know OnePlus, Honor, and Google's market are not as big as Samsung.

They are one of the only skins s... moreAs far as I know, the only vendors that make their Control Center looks like iOS knockoff is just Xiaomi (and all of it's subbrand), Honor, Infinix, Tecno, and Itel. So technically there are still more vendors that use the real Android-style Control Center than the one that uses iOS-style Control Center.

Presumably trying to jump the gun on the Pixel Fold 2/iPhone 16 and eat into their sales a bit. Samsung haven't invested in their flagships for years now. Their sales subsist on aggressive marketing and negligible 'match-up' upgrades. Despite the declining competition in Android space, Samsung's market share will continue to slowly decline.

Samsung and Appl... moreOverall, you're spot on. The Mate X has great hardware, but Huawei is riding nationalism right now and the Z's hardware has been "inferior" since January 2020 when the Razr debuted with a teardrop hinge.
Samsung has more or less stood still while other fold manufacturers had 5 years to take over pushing hardware and they simply can't do it. I don't think the Pixel and Open combined has sold 50k.
I'll only disagree about sales. Samsung said they missed their sales target with the Z5 so they weren't happy about the initial release. The Z Fold still outsold all other book folds combined, but Samsung wants yearly growth. By now, they should have been selling 20+ million foldables.

Samsung and Apple do not care if phones of other are considered better or worse.
They care about how much money they are making.
They do not care if they have to sell same phone year after year.
Clients in China choose to pay over $2400 on Huawei Mate X/Xs , those with lame outer foldable type than paying 30-40% less for foldables from Vivo, Xiaomi and Oppo.
If samsung is satisfied with how many Z phones are sold, do you really think samsung is gonna waste money on putting 6000mAh, periscope, 1/1.3" 200MP etc on Z Fold?
With these or without, gonna sell same amount.

Do hono... moreSelling more devices doesn't mean that product is better.
Look at market availability of Chinese phones,they are sold only in handful of countries only,so obviously they can't sell as much.
Apple iPhones (particularly base iPhones) are highest sold models each year then does it mean that base iPhone is a better device compared to other brand flagships costing same?
