    As it’s been a little while since you filmed this- are you still using the fold? If so how has the condition been holding up for you? I’m nervous to get into folding phones cause the look so delicate

    Hi there, thanks for watching! I have actually been keeping the phone pristine and not using it until I finished making the video, so I'm planning to switch to it tonight/tomorrow 😂 I can let you know in a couple of months if you are still deliberating?... Otherwise good luck!

    Do you think it still worth it to purchase it as a very first fold phone in 2024? Mostly the price gone down by a lot since the fold 6 rumors came out. Ps; on tight budget tho

    What price is it at now? I am really enjoying it for the most part, but it does have a couple downsides, the battery is not great especially if you use the big screen a lot, and the camera is distinctly mid tier...

    Hi there, of course it depends exactly what you're looking for, but in general id recommend refurbished for the phone (from BackMarket, or maybe amazon renewed - I haven't tested them yet), and look for a good special offer on a new laptop with x-mas sales...

    Hi, sure, it's been absolutely fine, no problems quality issues so far... So, for the most part enjoying, and would still recommend one... A couple of things to mention though, the battery is a little weak, if you use your phone a lot it may well jot last the day... Especially if you're using the main inside display... And also it can be just a touch awkward to use for certain things, where the outside display is just a little too narrow (like for typing) and the inside one is a strange aspect ratio, so some mobile Web pages don't load correctly...
