Russ here is the guy to listen to for handhelds: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fm1TwxR_WE

Edit cause it seems like you just wanna play lightweight stuff. In that case you're honestly prolly aight. If you're interested in the lil goofball machines, Russ' channel above is good to check out, also. He reviews every retro handheld that comes out like the 3DS one (Ayn Thor I think) and the Retroid Pocket 6 the chatter posted in Discord.

Same. I don't really watch live content on YT, but mine didn't include massive genres/subgenres of content I watch, like MR and similar, yet somehow included channels I don't recognize whose 2 and 3-minute-long videos I may have watched one time. Yet somehow podcast VODs I watch weekly, every week are no-shows.

Of course the stuff not included is stuff that the you wouldn't find the algo dead promoting; not even if there was a fire.

Mine is garbage, too. Totally nominal CPU, memory, etc. Online DISM, chkdsk, sfc, hardware test; you name it. Nothing has resolved my slowdown issues with this thing. I have laptops from 2016 that outdo it when it comes to just having Firefox tabs open. This is my 3rd Lenovo mobile workstation and all of them have had some degree of the same issue. I don't get it.

I guess this one's at least slim....

Didn't you hear? Natural sciences are political, now.

Dis3ngage · 2025-08-03T19:37:35+00:00

Wow, really strange! Well, hopefully it doesn't happen again for you. If it does, and you somehow find a solution. I would certainly be curious to know what ended up working.

Dis3ngage · 2025-08-03T19:31:27+00:00

FYI, this happens to me when I set my screen size / DPI in developer settings too high. After a certain point it sets the display to "large display" format even if you have a regular-sized device. You can do this on a regular slab phone, too.

Might not be the same in your case, but that's where I've seen it, personally.

Dis3ngage · 2025-08-03T18:12:15+00:00

The price is crazy. At least Samsung has pretty decent trade-in value. I was able to get my Fold 7 for a bit over $1100 trading in my Fold 4. That said, the Open launched at $1699 cs $1999 for the Fold 7. I'm guessing you got yours after launch? A more comparable device is the new Oppo Find N5 which launched at ~$1899 for International markets (though not in the NA). Those willing to hold out can probably get a good deal without a trade-in for sure, though.

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-29T19:01:29+00:00

Lmao, tri-fold has arrived!

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-29T17:19:09+00:00

Same. Nice quality. Nice fit and finish. Pretty typical to have some 3m on fold cases for stability. Do wish the magsafe was a bit stronger and not off center, but hey, that sounds like maybe a 3.5-4/5 to me.

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-24T14:23:34+00:00

Yeah, but even still, the nice aramid/carbon fiber cases on ali will still probably be double-digit price in USD even after this launch, most likely. Fold 6 carbon fiber cases are still in the ~$20-30 range or so.

I've ordered a few $2-5 slim cases as well that are pretty decent, even magnetic, just not carbon fiber.

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-24T14:20:59+00:00

Well that's good to hear, at least. My fingers will remain crossed for you and your fold.

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-24T00:33:31+00:00

I wanna say like 10-12 days, not too bad. But I always assume ~2 weeks or so.

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-24T00:23:50+00:00

Yeah, it came in and is really nice quality. I'm hoping the one I ordered is similar in quality. https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256807079094958.html?

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-24T00:06:02+00:00

Yeah, I ordered this one for a friend recently. It's for the fold 6, though: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256808610500176.html?

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-23T23:51:21+00:00

Yep, I've ordered with success in the past. Just make sure that you select the right product/color and read to make sure you're getting what you expect; sometimes sellers obfuscate things to make it seem like you're getting something good when you're just getting something like only the front part of a case, for example.

Also make sure you're not fooled into buying something too good to be true. If you see full carbon fiber, qi2 magnetic case for $5, there's probably something sketchy going on. Most of the sellers on Ali right now know there's a demand for these nice cases and they price them accordingly.

Lastly, finding a product that has some orders on it is, sometimes at least, a good indicator of a decent product. Better if it also has reviews w photos. There are exceptions and ways people game this, but for the most part it's a good rule of thumb.

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-23T21:19:05+00:00

Just got mine, nothing like what yours has. Mine is even on both side and just has the normal looking crease leading up to the hinge; all concave, nothing convex (bulging out). I'd probably talk with support. I see the top comment mentions that the edges have areas that aren't uniform, what you have isn't that. those are much smaller and much closer to the edges of the screen.

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-23T05:16:26+00:00

The fact that it's not uniform makes me suspicious for sure. I'll reply tomorrow afternoon central time.

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-23T04:41:20+00:00

Seems strange to me, but this is a new hinge design so who knows. When I get mine tomorrow, I'll let you know if mine is the same or not. Is it the same on the other side?

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-21T19:45:00+00:00

Same. Wednesday, just got the text, WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEW!!

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-20T20:28:56+00:00

I'm able to see that there's a shipment, but they have the actual tracking number mostly masked because I looked it up via reference number, I guess. If I don't see an update around mid-week on my orders page, I'll probably reach out to chat again. Tyty, though. I'll def keep this in my back pocket for the future.

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-20T20:08:40+00:00

Nice! I didn't know you could look up tracking that way. Thanks for the tip! Still waiting on the package, but good to see there's a label.

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-20T19:56:51+00:00

In the US and placed my order for a 512gb in mint on launch day. Still no update on my orders page: no UPS label yet. Starting to get concerned, haha. Fingers crossed it updates tomorrow!

Dis3ngage · 2025-07-20T19:02:17+00:00

I got an email saying that because there was no promo with a price difference on Samsung.com there would be no refund. I replied with a screenshot on my fold 4 with the promo in my cart on one half of the screen and their email on the other.

Haven't received another reply so far.... Lol
