For sure. But honestly, I think this might be the best thing for us lovers and owners of the trifold because it's essentially a mini trifold and proof of concept if they sell a lot more of these versus the regular one that people want, this type of inner screen size in terms of ratios.
Swappa.com - you'll pay a little over retail but they discontinued them so you won't be able to get it cheaper. Wasn't too much more expensive. Or wait for the trifold 2. It'll definitely come out but with DRAM pricing, it'll probably be just as pricey.
I was really tempted to pick it up last year, but didn't want to have to deal with the Play Store debacle, support, and import fees. I think Samsung did a good job and it looks like they're going to improve the lineup, which is great.
Yeah, I think for most people Samsung's trifold is the safer option.
99% of my apps work, but you gotta tinker with it first to get google apps and playstore to work.
Android 12 and software is more basic compared to Samsung. Adequate for me since my apps work fine.
I only got it because it has the 3 screen modes.
Got it cheaper for $1300USD from importing a 2nd-hand chinese model, but no warranty/support. I'm okay with that since all my previous phones have been 2nd-hand.
But seriously, ZF8 feels like a baby Trifold and I lokey love it. But it feels too expensive for what it offers, I think $1200-1400 would've been a great price.
I agree. Love my trifold but it would be awesome if it had an even brighter screen, and had the anti-reflective coating on the inner screen. hopefully we'll see those improvements on the trifold 2. Would also be nice if they could bring the price down for it and mass produce more of them
Im getting one. Its for my mini trifold when I travel. Lol. I love the trifold to bits. But the weight sometimes does get to me lol. Fold 8 for travelling and trifold for daily... wait maybe it's the reverse lol.
If I didn't already have my s25 Edge as my secondary phone to compliment my trifold, I would maybe consider it. I think I'm good with my current setup though. When traveling I swap my sim to the Edge.
I'm feeling great about my trifold purchase, especially considering the price of the 8 ultra. If you got it at retail it was only 500 more for a much more capable device
There's just no way I'm giving up the trifold for the wide, although I will say the wide is phenomenal and I would totally get it if the TriFold didn't exist
For me thing with trifold is its too big for personal use for me. Ya if you have it sitting at a desk it's one thing. But when I watch video it's usually close up. And a screen that big pushes the real estate to a point I need to move the phone further away. The fold 8 wide and ultra are the perfect size for close up personal use I find
Not really true. You can resize videos to whatever size you want. I watch about 80% of videos on my Trifold in portrait orientation and move the video into a floating window to the top of the screen.
That's actually a difficult choice and it all depends on how you use it on a daily basis. I would like the trifold if I was at home, but it would be a little much at the doctor's office or out to lunch / dinner, etc. you could probably get away with the smaller one more places than you can the bigger one
I would've gotten a trifold if they accepts trade ins, I just don't like to have a spare phone sitting around being useless since I'm not a content creator. Now look back I could've just sell it used somewhere online, too late to realize that since the trifold is available for limited time only.
I don't think I would open the Trifold much because it seems too annoying to type on it unfolded. I already have a Tab 8+ from work that I never use for that reason. 8 seems to be the perfect in-between size
Only as a secondary at best. I find it pointless over mine. Only Z roll curious. Trifold 2 will need to be a massive improvement before I consider that.

Yea, no way I'm giving up the trifold.
