Samsung Galaxy

EJB986

Newbie
Our Galaxy A33 5G phones were purchased Sept. 2022.
They are on the major list for moving to the 4 times a year security updates only.
Does the 5 year update guarantee apply and updates will continue as normal for that period?
 
Now that the One UI 8.5 Beta is over, it seems that Samsung has found yet another way to p*ss me off.

Android Recovery has been completely stripped down to only three options:
  • Restart phone
  • Wipe data/factory reset
  • Power off

That's it! I can't even wipe system cache anymore! :mad:
 
Do any of you have experience with the Z Fold 6?

I don't know why, but I feel drawn back to the big screen and S Pen functionality of the Z Fold 6, which is the last model that supports the S Pen. It still has 5 more years of software support; and I found one, unlocked with 512GB storage, that had the screen replaced in December, for less than $700.

I'd sold my Z Fold 4 because it was too thick for a couple of phone holders on things I really don't use much these days. As a result, I'm on the verge of pulling the trigger on this purchase. I can get the phone, plus the S Pen Fold Edition, plus an S Pen-capable case, for about $725. I'll keep the S24 Ultra for photos/videos (and as a "just in case" spare), but I'd love to hear from any of you here who have some experience with the Z Fold 6.

UPDATE:

I went ahead and pulled the trigger on it, so I hope my love affair with foldables is rekindled. If not, I can likely get my money back out of it selling it. The beauty of buying a used foldable is that their value plummets as soon as the box is opened. They depreciate faster than just about any other tech out there.
