You already have a factory fitted screen protection, removing this and fitting another brand if you can find one will give Samsung grounds to claim you damaged the screen by installing a 3rd party non approved product. Simply as the interaction between the Samsung screen and the 3rd party film can cause damage because of the difference in tension etc when folded.
I'm sure there are iPhone users who have picked up a Samsung foldable but I think for the most part you are right. But the added competition from an Apple foldable should push Samsung to bring even more good things to the Fold I hope.
512GB model is also $300 off.
$1699 right now for the 256GB
Best Buy is now matching.
That's a really great price, 512gb shows as $1649 in my app as well. I got mine when it was $1999 but I'm 5 days outside of the Best Buy return window, so I won't be able to price match. $350 price drop isn't chump change. Grrr.
You not signed up for Best Buy Members? I take advantage of that 60 day return window policy… not sure if that includes cell phone purchases though.
Yeah, that's a bit of a kick in the mid section. I haven't checked, are they still offering the same trade in values as well?
I've had every Samsung Fold except for the ZF5, both Pixel Foldables, and the OnePlus Open. Not a single issue whatsoever. The Z Fold 7 feels the best built of any foldable I've had to date. Samsung claims up to 500k folds with no issue and a Youtuber recently got 200,000 folds out of it before stopping. Anything is capable of breaking but I don't fear my ZF7 breaking anymore than I do my S25U or 16PM. I do get the Samsung Care+ as insurance.
The Samsung $470 deal is only with no trade. Best Buy has $300 off and takes trades, though.
Yeah as I bought thru Samsung, that'd probably be close to a wash after I sold the ZF6 instead of getting the $1,000 trade in.
Yes I have Best Buy Total but the return period is still 14 days for cell phones. Oh well.
As far as I can tell yes. I think BB would only match the trade-in price so I wouldn't get that $1649 price, would be $1800 ish which is a wash.
It was $1k during the preorder and release date… only issue with BB that they include full price until trade-in is processed. I prefer the way Samsung handles trade-in.
Yep this is why I only buy from Samsung and not through BB or the carriers. Even the trade in process was stellar this time. I received a notification it was received 2 days after I dropped it off at FedEx and it was reviewed and completed the next day.
What do you mean? They charge you the full price on the credit card until the trade-in is processed? What if you don't want to use a BestBuy credit card? Or do they send you a VISA/MC gift card for the value of the trade-in?
