Oh no, the Razer Phone 2 I use is a 2019 model, I think. Honestly I would've had to look it up... But it is a little dated by now in comparison heh ^^' And, they haven't released a new one since, either. Just controllers (which are pretty good, I like those a lot!)

Exactly why I want to wait untill there is support for unlocking the bootloader and installing a custom ROM. Heck, I even encrypt my S3 cloud storage when I mount it using RClone! I don't trust companies unless I am given a proper choice to run what I want to run myself. This is why I was so absurdly excited to learn that my RP2 had Custom ROMs. Here's a fun fact: My friends with their Oppo phones got Android 13 three months AFTER me - and my Android 13 (LineageOS 20) was not produced by a company or anything, at all. xD Meanwhile, their fresh, new, shiny Oppo phone had to wait. Believe me, I had an absolute field day all over my friends' nerves when I got Android 13 before they even heared a peep about it for their own phones. It was great =)

Oh I know; but while I am at it, having microG and Aurora to minimize my interactions with Google to a bare minimum and a few Magisk modules to make my darn banking app happy is all I am really after. My phone, my decisions, my data. So I've gotten quite used to this - albeit convoluted - setup... (it took foreeeeever to set all of this up, oh my god x.x)

I am just so tired of slap phones. I went from the iPhone 3GS all the way to the XR with a few gens skipped here and there, now living with the RP2 as my daily unit... I just honestly want something new, something novel, something ... different. o.o That is my main reason for wanting a foldable, really. They're cool, have new usecases, different formfactors and neat tricks! Why fumble with an on-screen slider if I can also just open and close my phone to answer or hangup a call? =) Most accessible phoning gesture out there!

Bang on I feel all that.

Aurora Store is great, shame Google have broken search, luckily you can just lookup the app yourself and open the link in Aurora anyway 👌

If you want the folding phone to try out new tech and are happy with the early adopter compromises then have at it and let me know how it goes!

Don't get me wrong, yours was the same reason I bought the folding Samsung. Just expect wear on the screen over time is all! It's not one you'll still be using for years.
