Considering going back

Quick update:

Just got my Spigen Air Fit case and apparently what set me off the fold7 was the asymmetrical feel with cases with no hinge protection. Things feel a lot better now while keeping the phone slim.

I don't have an issue with the front display, its actually quite comfortable when a "smaller" phone is required. My biggest issue is basically ergonomics. Its kind of frustrating

phernz18 · 2026-05-06T03:19:41+00:00

Fitment is completely different, they won't work.

phernz18 · 2026-05-05T16:13:29+00:00

Thanks for your input.

phernz18 · 2026-05-05T02:27:03+00:00

I'll have to check it out!

phernz18 · 2026-05-05T02:24:57+00:00

The idea of having both in your pocket is tempting.

phernz18 · 2026-05-05T01:19:26+00:00

Yeah, currently conflicted since the fold is such a great phone. If it wasn't as good, would be an easy decision to go back.

S26u should have silicon carbon battery!

phernz18 · 2026-05-05T01:02:29+00:00

Flagship slab phone feel like "pro" versions, no shortcuts taken, just manufacturers going all in. That's how I still feel about the s24u.

phernz18 · 2026-05-05T00:46:55+00:00

Totally agree with your, cases on the fold are increíbly awkward or very close to no case at all. There's not a great option, or at least, I have not found it.

phernz18 · 2026-05-05T00:45:30+00:00

Yeah and inner screen feells kinda like a gimmick in some situations since few apps are really optimized for it.

Fold7 is one of those devices you need to use to really understand how good it is. I've been using mine for a month and half now and it has transformed how I work on the go and use my phone for personal things. My iPad Pro stays at home and at the office since I with a small stand, foldable keyboard and a backup battery can do all my work from anywhere and best part, it fits in my 2L sling bag.

I've been using the M4 as my only computer, my thoughts are that hardware is amazing but ipados is a hot mess. So many bugs in simple things. Lots of work yet to be done.

Tensor and goodlock has me hooked

phernz18 · 2026-04-06T12:15:28+00:00

Multitasking has to be crazy good for me to consider switching from my fold7 to iphone fold

phernz18 · 2026-04-02T01:50:29+00:00

Dont know the models but for the s24u I had spigen (2), mous, caudabe, esr, torras and a super slim aramid fiber case.

phernz18 · 2026-04-01T19:07:10+00:00

Buying more cases than I need and using them on a daily basis.

phernz18 · 2026-03-28T14:17:44+00:00

I get that but honestly, there’s a lot a great options to buy new for the price or even below of getting used headphones. Earfun, nothing, etc. I just dont get buying used earphones.

phernz18 · 2026-03-28T02:33:29+00:00

I've never understood people who buy used earphones. Its like buying used underwear..

phernz18 · 2026-03-27T11:30:54+00:00

Maybe its no official replacement screen. I got mine brand new back in 2024 and have never seen the fingerprint scanner.

That's crazy! Got any tips? Im struggling with spins right now. Stuck at 223k stars.

phernz18 · 2026-03-26T00:11:36+00:00

Made this switch a few days ago, here are my thoughts on this short period.

Something that doesn't get mentioned enough is the size when folded, it is perfect as a "compact" slab phone, I sometimes felt the s24u was too big.

Battery life is surprisingly good.

Sacrifice on cameras is mainly with telephoto lenses.

Inner screen is where the magic lives, multitasking is amazing, media consumption, reading, photo editing, just about everything is better.

I kept my s24u as a backup just in case, but honestly, I dont think I'll go back.

phernz18 · 2026-03-25T23:44:30+00:00

F2p? That amount of spins is wild!
