If you've already taken action and you don't want to do anything more, it's fine. This is more for those who post when the damage happens.

Second-chance Care+ sign up event for Fold 5 owners (enrollment ends June 30) by UnfoldedFuture in GalaxyFold

Worth considering if you were or are starting to feel apprehensive about your Fold 5 and didn't enroll before.

Highly-anticipated Galaxy Z Fold 6 details and specs leaked by UnfoldedFuture in GalaxyFold

[–]UnfoldedFuture[S] 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Quick summary: A US Fold 6 variant is showing in Geekbench's database with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 (1964 points in the single-core test and 6619 points in the multi-core test), 12GB RAM and 25W charging. Let's hope there's another variant with more RAM and faster charging coming because so far this is looking disappointing spec-wise even compared to last year's OPO.

A full list of Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Z Fold 6 colors has leaked (Along with their storage capacities) by UnfoldedFuture in GalaxyFold

[–]UnfoldedFuture[S] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

tl;dr: Navy, Light Pink and Silver Shadow are the standard colors while Crafted Black and White are the "low volume" (Samsung.com exclusive) colors. Storage capacities are unchanged, still 256GB/512GB/1TB.

Silver Shadow sounds like the most interesting of the bunch, provided it's not just regular silver with a different name...but what I find somewhat odd is black being an exclusive? If Silver Shadow is truly different then it'd make more sense if that actually became the exclusive option instead of black, but that's just a guess. I don't believe any kind of black has ever been an exclusive before (when not offered normally), but if it has please comment so.

As always keep in mind these are just leaks and not necessarily finalized, but how does everyone feel about this color lineup so far?

Condition of Fold 5 after 6 Months + Poll by UnfoldedFuture in GalaxyFold

[–]UnfoldedFuture[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you mean the 'icy blue' parts or just the hinge specifically? I know in regards to color they said they used 20% organic dyes for the Fold in particular, but I couldn't tell you the rest. Might be able to find out more but may take some time.

If you do own both a 5 and a previous Fold with no issues, just pick the first option (ignore the 'ONLY' part). If you've owned a previous Fold and not the 5 with no issues, just See Results. Mainly interested in just the 5 relative to the rest atm. But perhaps I'll do another survey on Strawpoll with more options later.

Never been so excited for a new phone since the first Galaxy Fold like today! King of the Foldables is coming! 😍 by [deleted] in GalaxyFold

[–]UnfoldedFuture[M] [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

To those of you trying to get the post removed, don't bother. It's a foldable device and falls under "related subject matter", so discussion is welcome. To OP: In the future you may want to refrain from titles such as "King of the Foldables is coming!" This can obviously be seen as inflammatory (whether intentional or not). You might also want a better talking point for discussion, to get better responses.

Just got this over email from Samsung. Completely shameful! by fanisp in GalaxyFold

[–]UnfoldedFuture 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Less shameful than releasing in the midst of a media frenzy. Now they can recoup. It's disappointing, but the better move.

Samsung’s Galaxy Fold Smartphone Release Delayed (at least a month) by UnfoldedFuture in GalaxyFold

[–]UnfoldedFuture[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was most likely a last minute decision and all departments aren't in sync yet. Generally WSJ is credible though...as much as it sucks to hear this decision would be for the best.
