The folks in 3d printing helped me out greatly with this, and I was able to mash this together today. I haven't printed or tested it yet, but it's designed to be used with the quad mag ring. I'm going to use some very thin and strong 3m adhesive tape I have to ensure it is secure to the phone, and use for a quadlock mount on the bike if it actually works.

Perhaps this niche case will be useful for someone else?

Left Samsung due to poor battery to Pixel, which was an upgrade but the Fold is a big step ahead again.

Will post Pixel 7 Pro in comments for context

Looking for ideas on controllers and setups everyone is using for gaming on your fold devices.

My Fold 4 had the dreaded screen protector crackling sound a few weeks ago. Never dropped my phone and I have a Spigen Slim Armor since day one. Made sure to clean it as much as I can and bombard it with a dust blower every so often.

Brought it to the repair center just to have the protector replaced and when I unfolded it to show the interior, it had the full black damage on the crease. Thankfully, I still had a month left of the free Samsung Cares so they fixed it for free and even replaced my hinge and power button (which had the flaked paint issue).

I expect this phone to break again sometime within the year so when they pitched insurance for $60 annually with coverage for about $900 worth of repairs and replacements, I quickly took the offer. I'm going to keep on buying/renewing until I have this phone since I don't expect to upgrade unless a major breakthrough happens in foldables.

Update: just went to a Samsung store and they replaced the screen protector for me. Didn't cost anything other than an hour of my time. Inner screen is back looking brand new. Very satisfied!

My screen protector that the phone came with has starting peeling away at the top of the crease. I first noticed it around 2 weeks ago but it's been slowly peeling more and more since then. I know Samsung offer (at least in the US) 1 free replacement within the first year of purchase but it has been tricky find a store that has the replacement screen protectors in stock. Anyone else have any experience with this?

Hoping for more performance improvements as the Pixel Watch seems much smoother to me despite the weaker chip.

One UI 6 is in the making. Is your device on the list?
