Hi, I read through some of the pages in this thread but so far little info about the Z Flip

I see now in Shopee going for 3699

Is it a good buy?

I'm not a power user but simply love the fold/flip concept.

Thanks
*
I used it before, definitely a good buy if price is below 4K. I used it for 1 month+ then decided to sell it. Once i own the Fold 1, im using less for Flip.

I'm spoil with bigger screen actually. I dont mind keep open and close the phone to use. But once I get the Fold 1 that time, it become my favorite.
Too bad Mate XS still expensive, else I will try it.

Yes, shown on status bar.  There is nothing to activate on the device but in the MyDiGi app, there is option to activate VoLTE.

Checked there but no option for VoLTE. I will contact Digi tomorrow

Since the S21 series are quite disappointing. I am back haunting this thread 😅 Thought the S21 series would sway me away from the Z Fold 2, but the allure & excitement of holding the Z Fold 2 is a lot stronger. 

I mean like for the price of the S21 Ultra, you’re so near to Z Fold 2 EPP price.
*
Yes and also the freebies is not that great this time. Im waiting for the launching day to see if it got a better deal.

Just found out there’s a “Force Desktop Mode” tucked away in developer settings (tap “build number” 7 times to activate). Gonna explore this as a serious alternative to SamsungDEX.

DEX is  restricted resolution-wise to 1080p on the 4K TV I used as my DEX display because DEX doesn’t support higher resolution than 1440p. Ridiculous when the hardware in our Folds are capable of outputting video out in 4K.

Tested “Force Desktop Mode” and it works in 3840 x 2160 bypassing the arbitrary DEX restriction. Maybe now I can stream my movies and shows in its full 4K glory, not hobbled by DEX’s restriction to 1080p.

More explorations tomorrow. It’s been 7 months owning this Fold 2 and I’m still discovering there’s more things our Fold 2 can do!
*
Now you mentioned it, it's been 7 months already. I just started using it with DEX few months ago but rarely use it.
When heavy loaded, the screen flicker.

Here is the setup i use. Start at minute 2:25


It's a portable monitor with battery. Easy to bring it anywhere when need it with big screen.
The thing is for iPad Pro actually, it fits perfectly on iPad Pro corner.

Hi guys. What is the best place to get a brand new Samsung Z Fold 2 now?

From what I have surveyed, many dealers are selling it at around RM6,000+ only.

Any recommended dealer/shop would be much appreciated. Thanks! notworthy.gif

That's already good price. EPP still selling for RM6800. Last year around RM6200 iinm.

can i ask you guys how are your folds and flips doing? any problems after a couple months / a year of use? thinking to jump into this fold and flip form factor but scared the phone cannot last, i typically use phones for 2-4 years.
*
Still going strong, pre-order 1 day before launching.
Z Fold 2 by the way.
When I saw 1 youtuber daily use the inner screen for 7-8 months, the screen in the middle has tiny straight cracks, really scare me.
There in US got free screen replacement within 1 year while we still need to pay some.

So my opinion for people that want to use longer than 1 year, I may not suggest this foldable phone.
I saw some people selling their Z Flip that has a problem screen suddenly blank, out of warranty some more. It turns on with sound but screen is dead.

This foldable screen is still new in market. Waiting for it to mature will take more than 5 years at least.
Better take S21 Ultra or other flagship phone like Mi 11 Ultra/ROG 5. Even you don't gaming, ROG 5 is really smooth and fast for daily use.

u sure? mine dont have from the first day i bought

Z Flip does have screen protector but it's really fit like you it don't use any SP. You bought brand new sealed?

11 months using z-flip. so far so good. phone fell down from pocket high twice. daily flip around 50-70 times, i abused it kaw2 even flip-smashed it hard many times. playing some games on it (PUBG, Among Us, Stumble Guy). got few soft scratches(like u scratch using ur fingernail on paper) but barely noticeable since i always keep it closed. no screen protector though
i bought it sealed from maxis on the first day it launched in MY, official SME warranty. if u talking about soft layer directly on the surface of the screen, yes it is there by default.

but extra screen protector which few countries like US and europe that was given free, they have hole/u-shaped cutout on the camera hole. on mine doesn't have, just full layer from top to bottom.
*
Ya only the soft layer. I thought it's not recommended to add another SP coz it will pull the soft layer over time. This Z Fold 2 I also not dare to change the soft layer, just use as it is.

Interested and heavily considered. But haven’t pull the trigger yet. Watch review in Youtube, like half hearted 😅 is the screen easily get scratch?

Yes even with nail will be permanently there. Unless you change the SP of course.
Mine last time have 1-2 nail scratches.

My Z Fold 2 is still going strong, no scratches and no bubbles under the SP.

Is it better to trade in/sell my s21 u and get the fold3 or keep the s21u and get tablet like tab s7+?
*
Yes, keep S21U + bigger screen tablet. I have used ZFlip, Fold & Fold 2, not a big upgrade to this one. Now let’s see if the freebies are worth it.

I have a different take. I used to use a Note 9 + a 8" Tablet. After switching to the fold 2, both of those devices have been collecting dust.
The only thing I really miss is the spen.
*
For me, I need bigger than 8" screen. After so long using Fold & Fold 2, still prefer bigger screen. If they can make it to bigger screen or double fold would be much better.
All depends on what Samsung Malaysia have to offer now.

Only the US variant getting the Snapdragon version? A bit concerned after the N20 Exynos vs the N20 Snapdragon comparison

Since Fold & Flip they already use Snapdragon chipset on every variants.
