If it can't survive in today's environment then yes.

It depends... if you have multiple hires monitors, you may need an active dock for £200+.
I'm cheap though so I use a £50 passive dock and just plug in the last monitor separately.

The laptop may actually be too thin for either. Want those ports? Vote with your money, buy a different laptop.

As for hdmi at least, you can get a usb-c-ended cable too.

Z Fold 4 going 2 years - the hinge on this can fail early, but fold 5 should be solid and can be found £600 refurbished.
Samsung warranty is notoriously bad though, so can't recommend for that reason (no personal experience).

Hinge durability is the main concern.
I would not buy in yet unless you plan to upgrade every ~2 years.
Make sure the manufacturers warranty is solid.

Software-wise, I've not had any issues whatsoever.

Oh they want to, but i bet that shit's so intertwined that removing old audio menu will make your display output stop working.

I love it and would hate to go back. You have a normal sized phone that can make various otherwise awkward activities on small factor quite comfortable unfolded: note taking, film watching, reading, Internet in general.
It is so good to be able to whip this out anytime, anywhere.

It literally replaced 3 other devices for me that I used to drag around to cafes, work and when travelling.

I considered this overpriced bs until I got to try my friends device. Now I just consider it overpriced.

Japanese isn't widely adopted across the Internet as the default language, so this comparison is irrelevant.

I'm only familiar with Western Internet, but if you don't understand English, you're isolating yourself from large parts of the world.

Like, damn son, at least make a daily archive of your project??
You have to expect things to go wrong, otherwise you have no one but yourself to blame.

What in the world? I don't think I've ever seen that in the wild
