Very much looking forward to the software tour and the difference between the OS versions... I have book marked the handset on your store... I'm currently waiting to see if the Z fold 6 wins me over as I've become disenchanted with my Pixel Fold (I have owned every Z Fold prior to the Pixel release). Both the Z fold 6 and the Pixel Fold 2 look lacklustre, but I'm on the fence about buying a phone from a company with virtually no presence in the UK and usually the software experiences seem rather lacking, hope you can set my mind at ease.

I’m in Australia and got the Chinese Rom and it’s an AMAZING phone. The best foldable I’ve ever had. I’ve had the Z Fold 4&5 and Google Pixel Fold and they don’t even Rate compared to the X Fold 3 Pro. The cameras are fantastic, the thinness, the weight and the overall feel is Great. I don’t use android auto, I just use Bluetooth so that’s not an issue and I’ve got the Kospet Tank M3 Ultra and Xiaomi watch S3 which work perfectly with it. Also all the banking apps and Google Pay work seamlessly and I also love Origin OS. Don’t waste your hard earned money on the Global edition, get the Chinese Rom 😊
