I switched from OP 9 Pro to a Z Fold 6 to get the best of both worlds - a small, TV remote-like phone by default and a square-ish tablet for media and multitasking. Couldn't be happier.

At the same time, I do understand people who thought the width of Samsung's Folds is too small - my first consideration was OnePlus Open anyway, but upon actually holding it in store, I realized that Z Fold 6 is just more comfortable for me to hold closed.

I'd never want to pay 2,500 for a phone... tht's just insane

I absolutely agree, luckily I got mine used for 870€.

Your spending that much on a used phone? I can't phantom paying more than $600 for one

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You're willing to pay that much for a phone? I think my last one was $350.

OK, now someone else go lower.

I get that too. It helps to put it in perspective:

  • 870€ is about 45% of the official original price
  • the phone was used for 2 months and in a very good condition (saw it firsthand)
  • valid warranty etc
