Z Fold 6 on its way to me...

And that’s the 2nd ZF6 sent back to the reseller for a full refund

It started taking blue pictures and after a few factory resets, it didn’t change and im not faffing with Samsung support or an exchange etc

Massively unimpressed; but not a lot I can do.

The sellers been great; just absolutely sods law

Will make do with my Pixel 4XL for now and decide on the replacement ASAP. It won’t be an iPhone as I like the Samsung Watch Ultra too much ;)

That's crazy. My ZF6 has been perfect. Some really bad luck there for you. If I didn't use mine so much for work I'd sell ya mine for a heck of a deal but I know I'd be kicking myself after I part with it. The ZF7 isn't too far off and also keep an eye on the Oneplus Open 2.

I've just bought my old Pixel 9 Pro Fold back as the guy who I sold it to hasn't used it since he bought it off me 🤣

Should land tomorrow; I've splurged and ordered the Thinborne case for it too

It'll come back to me with the Spigen Slim Armor case thankfully

What bad luck with the Samsung.

I hope that with the Pixel 9 pro fold you enjoy the same. I was trying to buy it, but in Spain the Pixel is not sold and the Samsung software seems more powerful for work.

As above; our driveways slope down slightly, it's the angle I took the picture and their SUV is a Skoda and a chunky beast at that

@danb1979 do you have the ultra connected to a data plan? Are you still impressed with the watch?

Considering getting 1 to complement the s25 ultra. I’ve never really gelled with Samsung watches but I enjoy with the iPhone being able to leave it in my bag / pocket as I have a AWU 2

Yes; it's on my Three SIM only contract

Although I have my S25U with me in the garage when training; so I can use the Hevy app to record my lifts etc; if I'm out & about doing chores, I'll leave my S25U on my desk or in the car if I'm at the nursery gardens as an example etc

I love the GWU; think its a superb watch and I prefer it's styling to the AWU2 (which is also a fantastic watch)

Man that Blue really makes the Z Fold 6 rock!

Although I'm looking forward to the Z Fold 7 and the 8 Elite performance, my Galaxy S23 using SD 8 Gen 2 isn't suffering any hiccups in any task/application/media in any such way that if the price is right for the Z Fold 6 in Blue that I can find new in 2 months then I just may upgrade to that first before the Z Fold 7.

Thought I'd reinvigorate this thread and say I've got a ZF6 on its way to me, should land tomorrow (fingers crossed this one doesn't have any issues)!

My 'colleagues' have finally got the dev work sorted on the apps we use internally in the company I work for (think social media and ends with 'ook'...) 😂 and the licensing, so we can now use Android rather than just iOS (most of them work on both; but 2 of them that we use all the time were for iOS)

I've been given a £1k UK Sterling budget; so managed to find a new/sealed one on eBay via a reseller with very high feedback; ordered the Spigen screen protector, Aramid case and Magsafe ring via Amazon UK. Should all land tomorrow

Be good to have a separate phone for work again; bored of having to switch on and off the eSIM on my 16PM when I've had enough for the day etc

Absolutely love my 16PM and AWU2 - but I do miss the Samsung GWU; so will get another and will keep my business number as the eSIM and my personal number as a physical SIM, so I can swap and change which device to run over the weekends etc

Watch this space ;)

Looking forward to receiving it - gone for blue and 256GB again; I don't need any more storage than that

Also realised today that it'll make a superb sat nav for when we head down to North Wales 2nd week of July; as we're going in my 130i to get some driving in (hardly used it since I've done all the work to it due to my health issues and body trying to kill me again (ended up in hospital via an ambulance and A&E last week) 😑🤬

Plus we're hoping to get some of Scotland's NC500 completed later in the year; use somewhere near Skye as a first base for a few nights and then work our way North East etc and back home via the A9/M74/M6 back to Lancashire...

The ZF6 will make it easier with the inner screen size for nav and planning etc :)

Hope whatever is ailing you gets worked out and you get to feeling better.

ZF6 is a great phone. By far my favorite Z Fold to date (I had all but the ZF5). Hopefully you have better luck with it this go around. I popped my sim back in my ZF6 and have been using it this week on my business line and man do I love Samsung's foldable software. I'm a pixel guy so my P9PF gets more use as I love the Pixel UI and prefer the cameras on the P9PF but Samsung just makes a foldable so much more useful and productive. I'm really excited for the ZF7.
