I haven't met anyone yet who does and I haven't read any good endorsements about foldable phones but I keep seeing advertisement for foldable phones.

Thanks

I've been using the Samsung zflip 3 since release without issues. I like that it does not take up much pocket space. I've always liked smaller phones like the Xperia Xz1 compact, so the unfolded screen is a bit bigger than I'd like. Sadly there are not many options for small android phones anymore.

I've pre-ordered the zflip6 through att since they are offering a $1100 trade in value for the 3. Looks like it'll have a bit better battery, camera, and a dust protection rating.

Whoa! Foldable phones are that much pricier?

How much is the six?

Sorry, I'm one of the big screen folks too, although I wish I could find front-facing speaker somewhere.

I don't understand how even tablets don't have front facing speakers.

The 6 is $1100, so free for me with trade in. I think the flip 3 was $999 on release but I did the $999 off deal by trading in a Galaxy s10e.

I guess you could say the zflip has a front facing speaker if you open it halfway haha. In the L shaped position the speaker will face you.

Haha.

Wow, nice trade in value, congrats
