I am, even if i am on the other side of the fence (iOS).  But always interesting to see what they have come up with.  I would look at switching back however android seems to crash my car's media OS.  But will be watching the unpack event tomorrow morning when I wake up.

Perhaps OP could consider adding Watch 6 to the title.

These threads are generally more about tracking a particular phone make and model over time.  There have been other Watch threads, feel free to start one I'm sure there would be a bit of interest.

The wife might be interested in the Flip5, after giving her Z Fold3 to my daughter, complaining of its size.

I had the chance to attend lunch with Samsung a couple of weeks ago and had a play with all new devices.

 

The Z Fold5 is nice and its hinge now folds properly so it's thinner than the Fold4 by just a little bit. It has a few updated features, including more app icons in the taskbar now.

 

The much larger external screen on the Flip5 is much more usable than before.

What I want to know about most is the S-Pen integration into the Fold. Looks like it's only via a case which holds the Pen on the back, is that right?

 

Was that also available on the Fold 4, or is it new for the Fold 5 ?

Correct. It is a very slim case and the pen fits nicely in th back with a push release mechanism.

That case means it won’t sit flat on a table when open.

Flip5 pre-ordered! Managed to get it significantly down from RRP due to some vouchers I found online. Very excited!
