    Samsung Z Fold 4

    Just put in my pre-order. Found myself carrying a second phone and a second tablet with me all the time so I figured I can down size a bit and combine them. Tried out the Z fold 3 for a while and it was good except the screen was a bit too easy to dent. Anyone else getting the Z fold 4?
