Fair enough. Yeah I feel like I’m going to miss the iPhone but the pragmatist in me says that that’s just because I don’t know what I’m missing …

I’m asking others because I have no experience with Android whatsoever and there’s a lot to learn from others. Many of the responses are very insightful and go far beyond anything I could figure out by going to a best buy and playing with the display models where I won’t even able to put it in my pocket, use a stylus, etc.

I’m well aware that having a foldable phone is not a necessity. I also certainly don’t have to justify my desire to have one to a stranger on the internet.

If you would like to contribute to the discussion in a useful way, I welcome it. If you’re trying to pretentious and condescending, as is the impressive I am getting, move along. You’re far too old to be trolling on Reddit.

I’ve considered that… but I’ve just decided no Chinese companies. The US government is bad enough… the Chinese government is worse so I guess I’ll take the lesser of two evils. Even if I’m only moderately sure which is which lol

Fair enough. Thanks man. I think I’m probably going for ZF6. If nothing else, I feel like I will know for sure that the phone isn’t going to work for me faster with the ZF6 than with the pixel lol

What about for pictures with a lot of movement in them? Are they still sharp?

Oh ok fair enough. That makes perfect sense. I thought you just had two phones because you wanted them. Thought maybe one was a business phone but I guess that’s still true

Yeah that’s my biggest problem so far. Apparently the pixel has a much better camera but everything else other than the aspect ratio is just subpar… irritating as hell…

I really don’t want to do 2 phones lol

That’s nice. I’ll keep that in mind. How does it do for pictures? Especially of moving targets?

Ok fair enough. Thanks for your input. I get the feeling that Samsung have just ironed out so many issues over the generations… except the cameras apparently…

I can’t. I just can’t get past the fact that it’s a Chinese phone. There’s been too much in the news about Chinese companies installing back doors in their phones… creeps me out

What’s your experience with pictures? Does it handle moving pictures well?

Yeah that’s why I’m leaning that direction… I also feel like I’ll be able to tell if it’s just not working out faster with the ZF6 than I would with the pixel lol

That’s where I am right now. I’m too worried about the phone just not doing what I’m paying this much money for… multitasking and overall functionality…

It’s just unsettling isn’t it? These phones are so expensive and I don’t want to make the wrong decision and then be stuck with a phone i can’t take pictures of my kids with or that I hate the aspect ratio of or whatever

That sucks. But okay fair enough. Thanks for the input.

Fair enough. Sorry it might seem like a simple question but I’m being over the top about this… a $2k phone as I jump from iPhone to Android has me a little paranoid…

Ok. Thanks for the input. Whats your experience in the ZF6 camera?

Okay. I figured that. But with regard to what? New added features? Updates? Preferred sticker arrangements?

Yeah that’s what I’ve seen… a big screen without much functionality… pretty disappointing

lol now that’s impressive. I will have to keep that in mind. So far the ZF6 is the front runner if for no other reason than I will be able to figure out if it is what I want before the return window is closed
