So, have you decided your plans yet? Bypass the Fold Wide and keep Fold 7... while upgrading your current iPhone to Apple foldable?

I can’t see myself not upgrading to the wide, especially that it’s available for order in July lol and I know I won’t wait. We shall see on the iPhone when the time comes, but do I really wanna carry two similar foldable’s?

That's entirely up to you... And I know it would be tough to miss out on the Fold Wide since it comes out next month, but keeping the Fold 7 while grabbing the Apple foldable seems like the best route to take lol

Yeah I know right, decisions decisions, still planning on keeping my Pixel and preorder a Clicks for year end or early year depending on release.

Clicks is interesting… but I been through that phase, owned a Blackberry. Thought about getting that Power Keyboard from them, but I’m a pass.

I totally get it I'm really getting it because I want to go down memory lane and in my head I already have someone that would love to use the phone where I could hand it down to them, I have not told him about it yet so it would be a nice surprise after I kick it around a little bit for testing

I will probably trade in my Fold 7 for the Wide. Don't really care for the camera as I have my Oppo Find X9 Ultra for that but it will be more convenient to carry both this way and I still have my Oppo Find N5 for the "regular" foldable form factor. Curious about the price. I wonder if they'll have the "courage" to sell the Wide for the previous Galaxy Fold price and make the "Ultra" even more expensive instead, even though the "Ultra" is really just an upgrade of the regular 7
Looks like Motorola did a solid job with this one.

Not really, unlike Apple, I've found Samsung has always been generous in their trade in offers. 😉

I just switch my E SIM to my Fold 7 today but I use whichever Android phone is on home Wi-Fi daily

I think they both pretty good but I do like that white.. Nice carbon fiber case to protect the edges you won't see the colors anyway lol

I’m going to end up getting a skin as I did with my Fold 6… snap a MagSafe sticker, I’m good to go. Recently picked up this Aulumu G09, I like it…

That's also a good idea and nice looking ring, I'm already on Thinborne 30% pre-order list for their upcoming cases. They hold up great and I've never removed mine from my Fold 7. Plus the phone feels like no case on it.

Not sure I want to leave the Flip series, as I really don't want to give up the super compact form factor. Although, I gotta say, the wide Fold8 has my attention. I may actually pick one up.

Join the club! Day one preorder for me!
Yeah the G09 is nice… been on my radar for a while, just never pulled the trigger until recently.
Had one of those ultra thin cases, but nothing really beats the naked feel (for me)… you’ll notice the difference when you remove the case. If Samsung decided to support MagSafe natively… probably wouldn’t do a skin.

Usually can get them for $55 or so with 30% but the good thing about it is you won't have to buy another case
I might try one next go around if I get another foldable or a larger phone. Especially since they added different colors
