The cameras are actually a lot more similar then I originally expected. I thought it was a massive difference the way people spoke about it. The Fold 8 will do great for taking photos of objects at my job to zoom in on the text and read the print.

Changes I would make to my Fold 8:

Add MagSafe (ridiculous omission from Samsung)

Add telephoto lens

Add factory glass screen protector

Change camera layout to horizontal rather than vertical

Change back material from glass to either aluminum or plastic (saves weight)

Make the inner and outer screen selfie cameras under-display cameras

Add under display fingerprint scanners

Remove haptics (saves weight and battery)

Remove SIM card tray (saves weight)

Remove one of the stereo speakers (mono is fine, if you want high quality audio use wireless earbuds)

Make light performance profile and realistic color the default setting. Make volume stepping much more granular by default
