PepperPot, 07 Jun 2024I wouldn't necessarily argue with your position or any... moreFeel the same as you but still a top brand should give their best and they don't at all.
Battery, fast charging and a flat display is some of my top priorities.
My private S24 Ultra vs my working phone Xiaomi 13T Pro hmmm, in many ways I actually better like the 13tp, more snabby to.

The battery actually impacts the way I use this phone. For me, that is a problem. Not Wi-Fi, charging speeds, or a camera that can take pic's of the moon.

Will prefer a generic now and many users also doing same as this issue of updates breaking phones and once guarantee is over you cannot do anything just throw on waste as heavy payment on repairs so my advice to users better use generic cheap phone as no updates and also very cheap better than buying expensive each month an updates and the company don't take the responsibility of their doings we customers who suffer great loss .

Spec Chaser: "Wi-fi 7 is so last year. Why aren't they offering Wi-fi 8?"
Me: Because it doesn't exist yet.
Spec Chaser: That's no excuse!
Me: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Weird, maybe FCC messing up here?
S24U has same chip and Wifi 7 is working and official part of it's specs, so why not the foldables with same chip?

About WiFi generations... It's not just about speed. It's also about security.

Anonymous, 06 Jun 2024I bet even if this company offered wifi 4 in a 2000 dollars... moreAgreed, they're giving Samsung a reason to be even more cheap and give us ancient features. They're the one who should be blamed for making Samsung ditch microsd card slot and headphone jack from the beginning. And now, they want it to stick with old Wi-Fi ac/6 forever because they can't afford a router that supports Wi-Fi 7!
Feed us sammy, feed us your cheap jnk old $ht plz even if you take more money from us!!

Happy with the z flip 6 battery increase, this should result in a typical battery being 4000. A decent jump from the 3700 on the flip 5.
Hopefully with the more efficient chip and refresh rate improvement this all results in a decent battery life jump

Peter-B, 06 Jun 2024Keep in mind that Samsung will likely extend the 7 years of... moreGreat solid post!!
To counter that HOW many years did people use WiFi 2.4G or 5G BEFORE AC launched? That's was WiFi 4 btw?
Now on IEEE 802.11ac /WiFi 5 5ghz it's been roughly 5-6yrs now.
In 6yrs it'll still be the base level so no worries.
The REAL issues anyone will face is not bandwidth!
Bandwidth increases are primarily used for data transfer and streaming and downloading.
Accessing web sites with WiFi 5 6 or 7 do NOT happen perceptibly & consistently faster .. the limitations are in
1) website design : front end developers are mixing so much stupid crap like and time waiting transitions it's ridiculous.
2) browsers and how they render sites. Unless a radical change nothing gets better.

Why make something future-proof? Let's force people upgrade later to have latest features.
Typical Samsung.

I'm wondering the lack of Wi-Fi 7 in the Z series will be addressed and enabled via software update like Xperia 1 Mark VI (software approach) or deliberately omitted by Samsung, if not disabled in the hardware of the Z series (hardware approach).
