The more we find out, it seems like the Wide is just a 7 rotated to landscape, with the top 1cm lopped off when unfolded. 🤔

With the Ultra, you get the Ultra AND the Wide.

Screens aren't "tough" enough. Mohs scale of hardness? Around TWO!

They're more durable than you think, thanks to the screen protectors they all sport. Yes, not as scratch resistant as glass, but glass scratches too. If screens aren't made of sapphire crystal, they're all too delicate as far as I'm concerned.


Kind of like the "visibility" of a foldable's crease: if it's called a crease, it's because there IS a crease. I don't care about a less visible crease; a crease is a crease and they all su*k.

"Capacitive fingerprint scanner" - The Z Fold hasn't used a capacitive sensor since the Z Fold 4. The Fold 5 changed to an ultrasonic sensor, which is what has been used ever since. The capacitive scanner allowed for gestures (e.g., pulling down then notification shade). The ultrasonic scanners don't support gestures.


I wish they'd go back to capacitive sensors, like Moto did in the Razr Fold.
