I only know one guy who has a folding smartphone. It's broken now. What a stupid idea.

Love my z fold 6. Getting the first foldable phone....yeah that would be questionable but they worked it out I think. I love mine.

I like my zfold 6, but the main downside is that it's made by Samsung. They've switched to a locked down bootloader over the past few years and you can't get GrapheneOS or LineageOS to run on it.

Because of this, once software updates stop being supported by Samsung, the phone increasingly become a security liability. Meanwhile my old S10e does support these 3rd party OS's so I can theoretically keep using it safely for several more years

Completely agree that's the rub. Samsung product.
