I had enough payments made to next time upgrade now, so I did, something I’d been considering a fold, since Microsoft dropped the ball on a good dual screen phone like the Duo 2 I had, had to turn in to be replaced because lines were forming on right screen. Well I never got it replaced, and bought a shattered back one on Ebay and fixed it with glossy accents and put a lovely skin on both sides. It’s gorgeous but I can’t use it as a phone because AT&T doesn’t recognize it as it is. They say it’s an LG phone regular candy bar and so, it’s my wifi buddy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra is what I upgraded to. I love stylus phones, but I don’t really use the stylus when I have one, so… I need to use my regular camera more, and so I will have to sometime now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Oct 8-12 is the shipping estimate. UGH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I also got a Samsung magnet case that comes with screen saver film. Violet Shadow is my phone and case color and the phone is 512gb<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I’ll decide if I like the case enough, it has no front frame… I use att protection so … we’ll see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
