Same. As a foldables guy, literally any Chinese folding phone looks leagues ahead of the z fold. I would love to get something like the vivo x fold 3 but warranty and cellular compatibility spook me. Samsung has me held hostage here in the states

As a foldable guy, I live in Singapore where Huawei, Xiaomi and Oppo also sell their foldables. They look okay at a glance but walk into any store and try them and the software immediately makes the phone feel underbaked.

There’s a reason despite that and their lower prices, there’s still far more common to see people with Samsung’s foldables than their Chinese counterparts.

I mean I guess I’ve never actually used one but every video I’ve seen from people like flossy Carter and such only rave about them.

I watched this yesterday and it made the vivo seem pretty much like a clear win. Basically the only thing Samsung has going for it is the software. And I’m sure in its home market this thing crushes the fold

No shit, not everyone can shell out money for an iPhone or your typical flagship Android phone, even in the US.
