Is the EPP store definitely ok to use multiple coupons, their terms on main page always says not to use with other promotions etc?

 

Cheers

Still have the case on my Fold6, but this is a good comparison in size:

Thinnest Fold Ever!………………………Except for the camera bump.

As a friend said, "can't beat physics". Lenses need distance, so...

 

Some phone have a "periscope" lens assemble to reduce the bump. I am not sure about the Fold, though.

Really not seeing any reason to get the Fold 7 over the superior in every way Vivo Fold 5, which is $1k cheaper.

Wait for Black Friday. 4k for a phone, albeit top end, is frankly crazy in most people's books.

Using it at night for reading. So much lighter and more spacious than the Fold6. A lot more comfortable.

 

Very nice.

My current Fold (ZF3) has an official Samsung wallet case on it, the one with an S-Pen attachment. Not that I have attached or used the S-Pen for years.

 

I’m a bit disappointed that there doesn’t seem to be a Samsung wallet option for the ZF7. I tried a 7 at Harvey Norman and, because of the camera bump, it needs to be placed face down to sit flat. So I would prefer that there is at least some sort of protection for the front screen.

 

At the very least the front screen needs edge protection. I have looked at a range of covers, but since the whole point of the phone is its thinness, a bulky cover seems to defeat the purpose.

I tend to use Spigen screen protectors to resolve that.

 

No impact on screen responsiveness, and (in most cases) essentially invisible when installed.

Anyone lucky enough to get an early shipment? Ordered mine for the free vacuum on Spark, but will just sell it brand new unopened with a discount for my GZ chums and grab the Vivo Fold 5 instead.

I'd have thought everyone on GZ who wants one is already in this thread, and has already ordered, or declined to order based on the compromises and cost.  Good luck, soldier!
