I have an older Samsung Note 8 that is still going strong. I like it because I can swap out memory SD cards for photos or media. I can have two windows open on the web so I can reference one with the other. (Great for booking flights)
It has a built in pen for notes and other stuff. Great camera.

The new folding Samsung phones are spectacular. Open or closed they fill the need for large screens with a regular size phone. I am really close to pulling the trigger.

Not that great of a deal

example: similarly spec'd laptop from Dell here is the same price: https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell...f=variantstack


I'd wait until black friday/cyber monday since it's just around the corner, you'll find some really good deals then

Yes, I was thinking the same. And I'd rather not purchase from Wal Mart.
