Any Fold 4 owners care to share their first 24/48 hours experience and battery life (understand that it needs a couple weeks to adapt)?

Sakurazzzz told me that Whitestone may have issues such case incompatibilities and need to remove stock SP which can be dangerous and so on.. Any brave heart to test it out on Fold 4 first?

Anyone here with a Fold 4 that owns a tablet (be it android / ios). How often would you pickup your tablets after owning the Fold 4? Just curious.

Makes me wonder if storing unused phones at those recommended levels of 40-60% are the cause of it? blink.gif

Same here, I usually sell them and get some money back to pay for new phone instalment sweat.gif

Tempted to get the fold now because they're offering RM1440 (RM740 + RM700 Overtrade) for Note 10+ 256GB and can trade in up to 5 devices (not all models have overtrade).
Offer ends 30 Sept. blink.gif

Seen a couple of this on reddit and YouTube outside Malaysia. Seems like their service centres blamed them for using sharp object at the crease area and that its not covered under manufacturing defect. confused.gif

Do let us know your experience with the service centre here.

QUOTE(Hertz96 @ Oct 4 2022, 09:22 PM)
So something broke while using the phone in "big screen" mode earlier. Heard a pop sound when closing. Opened it up again and a small part of the screen was bulging up slightly. After a while these small black lines started to form at the bulging area and now the screen has become unresponsive. Barely a month old..

Exactly my thoughts. That's what they are complaining about on reddit. Sounds like they are really reluctant to allow defect claims on the crease/folding area as manufacturing defect. Except when using Care+.

QUOTE(!@#$%^ @ Oct 5 2022, 09:20 AM)
why would anyone use sharp object there?

I see. But I guess it wouldn't come with 3x free screen protector if buy outside?

QUOTE(bennedict82 @ Oct 10 2022, 07:50 AM)
About the same. The warranty if you go outside to buy need to pay extra rm600 if you go for option 2. Just to make sure the shopee seller give you the original genuine set with sealed box. I am a bit reluctant to buy from some unofficial retalier.

Maybe update us in another 1 or 2 weeks on the battery performance. The adaptive battery should still be learning usage patterns. Would be good to know.

Anyone here use aftermarket screen protector for Flip4?

I tried to claim the free replacement screen protector due to lifting at the edges of the folding area recently from the SC in Kuching but they said its minor and I shouldn't get it replaced yet and there's like a 2 put of 10 chance there will be bubbling. Then I decided not to change yet.

Fold 4 vs Fold 5 vs S23U Camera: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPq1zoA-zSw

Looks like Fold 5 is almost like S23U I feel. Could be = regular S23.

Wouldn't warranty for the display be void?

QUOTE(ijuanp03 @ Aug 28 2023, 12:02 AM)
They will still honor the free 3 screen protector replacement which is part of the pre-order gifts.

Not trade in. But buying from their online store. Its RM2999. Malaysia day special is another RM200 off so RM2799.

QUOTE(waveweaver @ Sep 15 2023, 07:30 PM)

I guess its all about whether or not we think buying a used fold 4 at RM2799 vs new fold 5 at 6799 is worth the risk.

I guess they would claim that the scratch is caused by a fall which then resulted in display issue. How easy it is for Samsung to deny warranty claims..

Not only in Malaysia apparently 🤔

What are "issues" you have with the Fold5 currently?

QUOTE(Xaser_3 @ Jun 17 2024, 08:26 AM)
I have gotten used to the so called narrow screen, due to it's size which fits comfortably in my hands versus the bar soap size of iPhone Pro Max. I guess each to it's individual preference and comfort
