Fold 7 Pro grip tip

[LongHiker]

I found that I was struggling with unfolding my new Fold 7. It is so thinnn. 

I sliced a thin strip of clear Dragon Grips tape and added it to my Fold 7. It isn't noticed visibly, but it helps with unfolding tremendously! 

BTW, I have no connection with the Dragon Grips company financially. I found them a few years ago and found their products very useful.

Yep, very hard to open. It's so thin it is hard to grip.

Not hard to open. Difficult to get purchase on the edge to open it. Once you have a grip, it opens easily.

Hard to get a grip to open

[LongHiker]

I have notoriously dry hands which makes all phones slippery.

When I was playing with the phone for almost an hour, I found it difficult to grip because there really isn't that much of a rail to open. As a some YouTubers stated in their videos about the device.

Hence, my recommended minimalistic solution.

Where do I buy that stuff, I could use that stuff on a few things?

[LongHiker]

Amazon. They have it in different sizes, styles and colors.

I will look. Thanks for the tip.
I am still on the fence about getting the fold, I don't think I can live with that 3x after having the 5x on my S25U. It is my 2nd most used lens. I can live with a mediocre Ultra Wide, not a 5 yr old 3x.
