    No sd card slot. Display that doesn’t last. Battery life is garbage.

    This was more of a passionate plea to Apple by its Chief Spin Network to get in on the act… than a nod of acknowledgement to Samsung for pioneering ground breaking engineering!
    Swipe-typing this on my Fold2 (front screen) which is still the most interesting thing IN EVERY ROOM I step in!!!

    Galaxy Fold is the only Android phone that’s tempted me away from iOS.

    Apple: Pay for last gen tech at next gen prices and be told by marketing how cool you are. Been rocking a Fold 2 now Fold 3. Zero complaints other than battery but that’s easily fixed with a mid day charge or tweaking the settings to lower battery friendly settings. If you can afford it, I highly recommend it.

    Complaining about the price of a foldable phone while buying an apple iphone for the same price sounds insane
    . people literally turn their heads when someone pulls out a foldable phone

    Why didn’t you talk about how unreliable these phones are?

    At least Apple can’t claim they invented foldables anymore.

    I’m not paying 1800 dollars for a foldable~! Getting a tablet and a phone is way more practical and cheaper!

    🇺🇸 my next phone will be the foldable phone! Samsung will improve their phones, as always.

    I have had iPhones for years. Latest was 12 pro max, since going to the fold 3 there is no way I can go back to a normal phone. Specially for work, I got everything on the z fold 3 . I can use the pen, write emails and read pdfs confortably. Apple needs to work on it. It’s truly a no brainer once you get used to it
