Phone Genius, 30 Jul 2021Just bought one for $800, excellent device for the pricewhere did you get it at that price?
Although Fold 2 has some excellent features, it is costly; in addition, it has some fatal industrial defects that Samsung should quickly fix.
The most common issues are; short-life battery, problems with charging the mobile, the battery always becomes very hot that always cause the mobile to power off.
Although Samsung policy allows the customer to refund or replace the faulty product within the first days of buying, unfortunately, in reality, Samsung will refuse to replace or refund, which happened to me.
Overall, Fold 2 is not recommended; maybe Samsung will fix these issues in their coming Fold 3 version.

NeoGul, 18 Jun 2021- People should quit talking about the "generation" thing, it's pointless, my M... moreyes yes its better, mi fold sold 20 units, samsung sold 300 units
so I'm more concerned about samsung, not other brand, enjoy your mi fold, have fun
I'll also buy the fold 3 when it comes out in exhange of this fold 2, once a samsung, always a samsung. its been the only brand I've used since note 2 in 2011. so yeah, I'm happy, u stay happy
- People should quit talking about the "generation" thing, it's pointless, my Mi Mix Fold beats my Z fold 2 in every way I know to use the outer and inner screens.
- Speaking of the inner screen, its bigger than that of the Z by a good margin and that makes a whole lot of difference and makes it actually usable as a tablet, the Z isn't big enough for a tablet on regular use and isn't also good enough a phone.
- The hinge has been a talking point for Samsung marketer who call themselves "reviewers" - well, as an owner of both phones, the Mi hinge works better, it snaps open with one hand and into a position one can sit it upon a lap and type away. And if fully stretched out, you hear a click ensuring a rigidity. Its better than what Samsung has on my Z fold 2.
If the Z Fold 3 retains the same size as what it is on the 2, then it falls way shorter than the Mi Fold, even if they make their inner screen refresh rate 1000000Hz - like it makes a difference on a tablet.
Mi mix Fold makes me feel I've been ripped off by Samsung with the Z fold 2.
I noticed that when I was ordering my Mi Fold from 28, the price of the Z fold 2 had dropped to the exact same price as the Mi Fold.
Using the two makes me see the Mi Fold as a practical phone;
- Direct dual nano SIM
- Taller outside screen shows more information than the one on the Z Fold 2
- Taller form factor makes it easier and more secure to hold and move around folded than the Z Fold 2.
- People should quit talking about generation"
John, 18 Jun 2021Lol, the Mi Mix Fold is a copy of the first-gen Galaxy Fold. Xiaomi uses iPad-esque 4:3 screen... moreThat outside screen displays more content and information than the smaller Z Fold 2 or even Z Fold 3 at a time - which, essentially is the aim of having a screen on the outside before unfolding.
Also the inner screen ratio is the preferred ratio and that's why iPads are a hit. So either ways, the Mi Mix Fold is way ahead of the Folds 1, 2 and 3 in terms of practicality and not to forget its dual nano SIM - not some esim.

The outer screen may not be wide BUT it displays more information than the Fold 2 and fold 3 outer screen - which is the main use anyways.
And the height makes it easier to hold in one hand and use too.
RealUser, 17 Jun 2021Its quite funny that Xiaomi's first attempt at the foldable phones; the Mi Mix fold beats... moreLol, the Mi Mix Fold is a copy of the first-gen Galaxy Fold. Xiaomi uses iPad-esque 4:3 screen for the inside screen, so it is easy to handle. But the outside screen's 27:9 aspect ratio is anything but great.
Its quite funny that Xiaomi's first attempt at the foldable phones; the Mi Mix fold beats the Galaxy Z Fold 2 in EVERY aspect known technically and is even preferred by some reviewers for its form factor and tall form factor as easier to hold with one hand folded.
Its clear that Samsung will have to do better than its fragile flashy phones to retain any lead in the smartphone sector.
When I watch some reviewers on YouTube 😅😅😅 their confusion and shock is simply glaring with the facts and their unconscious bias towards Samsung is quite obvious - then they start throwing phrases like "Gen 2 device", "8 months old", "Z fold 3 will definitely be better" 😅😅😅
