[Starlord]

Still running my S21+ and Mrs. AZ has the S22+. Both still running fine. No reason to upgrade to the latest and greatest.

I can switch my phone without paying anything extra as my company offers packages for employees, i was thinking about it. I will visit store and see if it increase my monthly bill if not i may switch it with Galaxy fold8 ultra.

In the not too distant past, when a new phone came out, it was a big deal because it was a lot better than the previous years phone..
.
But in recent years, phones have become so powerful, that year-to-year models are now incremental updates.

Never had that issue with my StarTac (still love / miss that phone) and the LG after that. But, that was also many years ago.

My very first phone was a StarTac. I loved that phone.

Huawei Pura X Max sales surged 76.5% in the four days after Apple launched the iPhone Duo foldable.

Huawei Consumer Business Chairman Richard Yu commented on Apple’s entry into the foldable market, saying the company views the competitor as a benefit for its business growth. The senior official also hinted that Huawei remains at the top.

During the International Media Roundtable, an interviewer asked Huawei Chairman how Apple’s entry into the foldable market will affect or benefit the company’s position in this product category.

Richard answered that Huawei considers Apple’s entry into the foldable battle as a positive development. He added that the company welcomes new opponents in the rivalry.

The senior official kept his point of view, saying that new competitors in the foldable market will introduce better products and services to consumers.

Besides, Apple’s arrival on the folding ground appears to be the beginning of healthy competition, motivating more users to choose foldable phones. Yu said:

“When we were about to launch this widescreen foldable phone, we saw online reports about our US peer developing a similar phone. The widescreen foldable phone was originally from Huawei, and we started earlier.”

Yu also mentioned that the launch of the Apple iPhone Duo has increased the sales volume of the Pura X Max by 76%. This is because consumers like Huawei’s products more due to their innovative design, features, and new software version.

In the past few months, the Pura X Max has crossed 1 million units in sales. It would be interesting to see if the device remains a top competitor in the wide foldable phone market throughout this year.
