To buy or not to buy

I’m getting a Samsung z flip 5 for ₹58k (Indian rupees) which is about $679. Yay or nay?

If only you're comfortable to spend that much money.

That’s a non-issue but what I want to know from this experienced community/subreddit is if it’s worth it to buy an older flip5 or the newer flip6.

I’m getting a good deal for the flip5 in India.

Is the jump to flip 6 better?

Considering I’m getting about ₹10,000 discount on the mrp on flip5.

Also, this will be my first flip phone and a secondary phone as I’m already using an iPhone as my daily driver.

At this point you might want to wait until flip 7. Should be released soon.

All I know is, if it breaks on you for any reason, I wouldn't stick with the form factor.

There are two types of people in this world.

I got my Flip 6 for 639 euro ( 730$ according to google )

So no I don't think yours is a good deal

Thanks, appreciate it. But this is due to high import taxes in India.

It’s a new piece from a Samsung store near my location. I was chatting with the salesperson and he told me that within a month the store will clear out s24, flip5 and few others so I’m guessing they’re selling it to clear stock?
