        What happens when you don't send the device? I heard that Samsung can charge you for the value of the trade-in coupon on top of the $30/$60 fee. Also, they can remotely lock your phone if you don't pay when they charge you the coupon value. I put my Apple Watch 8 as the trade in and was planning to send it, but now I am worried as there are several cases where they make up a defect and undervalue the device.

        • Thats all incorrect. If you don’t send the trade in device, they only charge you $30/$60 device non return fee. Thats it. Have done similar deals at least a dozen time and never had any issue at all

  • Why am I so excited? 😂
    Better hurry up and ship tomorrow.

    And of course, my Samsung buds I got a few years back are now dead - in retrospect probably should have got the Buds 3 instead of a power bank I didn't need but oh well.
    Hopefully we see an influx of people on marketplace/ozb classifieds trying to offload their unwanted buds/accessories

      My orders have been updated with tracking in the auspost app. Says they were shipped out on Thursday with delivery expected today. We'll see if they come.

      • Me too!!! Says delivery expected today!!! Sydney!

        • Are these StarTrack tracking numbers as Samsung deliver through StarTrack, although these do appear in auspost tracking also.

        • Did you get yours yet?

      • Are these StarTrack tracking numbers as Samsung deliver through StarTrack, although these do appear in auspost tracking also.

      • Ayyy awesome!

  • Got aus post tracking through star track

    • When did u place the order and what was your order?

      • July 10 evening in Melbourne blue shadow 1tb

    • Same. Says it was supposed to be delivered on Friday but delayed at the facility. No ETA and last movement Saturday waiting to be processed at facility.

  • I also just got the Startrack tracking number in auspost app. Shows item processed at sorting facility Sydney NSW on Fri 18th July 10:38am. But order status on Samsung Shop App still showing awaiting dispatch ships from 23rd July.
    I placed order on 12th July for Jetblack Fold7 512GB with Watch 8.

    • Same here.

    • I thought you passed on it 🙄

      • Was able to sell my S25U 256GB for $1300, so bought Fold 7 512GB by adding a couple of hundred only 🙂

  • +1

    Apparently, my delivery date is today (21 July) in Perth (according to Startrack) but shows 25 July in Samsung Shop app, ordered on 12 July, Fold 7 512gb Blue

    • +1

      Same here!

      • Delivery date changed to 23 July

        • +1

          Mine is coming today!

  • The tracking got added to my auspost account
    The app says they received it 18th july, delivery expected today but unlikely as last update still says its processed at sorting facility sydney and im in a different state

  • +1

    Samsung order status changed to on the way, phone IMEI added as well. Coming tomorrow based on StarTrack/Australia Post tracking.

  • Also got a tracking email that says 'your order has been shipped', which includes the 1TB Fold 7, which still says 'Ships from 11 Aug', so this is very confusing. It seems that the phone is on the way though - anyone else in the same boat?

    • Blue Shadow 1TB delivered today. I wonder what the point of that 'Ships from 11 Aug' was, unless maybe I was lucky that people cancelled their order and so I got in an earlier batch? Anyway, happy days! Thanks again OP

  • Mine shipped on the 18th so arriving soon

  • Anyone received it yesterday? I just got a text notification from Star Track it's coming today! Can't wait. Ordered on 13/07

      Same here got a text now from Startrack and it's onboard for delivery

    Perth metro here, just received mine.

  • Hi
    Im considering not sending in my trade in phone or just sending some random old phone instead can someone confirm how much i will be charged.
    Trade in for 8 plus was $40 so if i dont send it in or if i send in a random s5 mini which would be the better option

    • $60 but I'm also going to see what happens sending in a random device. Should fall under ineligible device and therefore no charge.

      • Thats what i was thinking

  • Mine just came after lunch - inner Melbourne.

  • Brisbane, just got notification its coming today

    • That’s called stealing I guess. Not sending is one thing, don’t even want to pay what you agreed shouldn’t be encouraged though

        • Not sending device is in their term (on which you agreed to pay the admin fee). It’s different. We already got a good deal, pls don’t abuse by trying to avoid paying that admin fee

    • You might find something new on your credit report.

  • Mine arrived today (22nd) after lunch in Sydney. I ordered on 13th July.

  • +3

    Can someone please comment how awesome the Fold 7 is? :) Got mine today and can't stop using and admiring it.

    • +1

      Dont care what she says. Thinner is definitely better!

  • What case to put it in?! I bought a cheapo 15 dollar one from Amazon just to begin with, but seeing as I'm very clumsy and have young kids, I want max protection for it, not worried about thickness, and hoping for the magsafe ring to lock it in place in the car when I'm driving - what have y'all bought? Looked at Supcase, Spigen & Otterbox and man they are all expensive. But do I just bite the bullet if I want to play it safe?

    • +1

      I've been using the Spigen Slim Armor Pro for every iteration I've had of the Fold…currently on 6. Pricey but no complaints, keeps phone and hinge protected without toooo much added bulk.

      Spigen are also good at honouring warranty claims which I have made in the past.

      • +1

        Oh like for the case? How do you mean - could you please eloborate?

        • I have had both screen protector and case warranty claims honoured through Spigen customer support. I just got in touch, let them know what the issue was (i.e. unintentional damage due to manufacturing defect etc.) and they sent me out a replacement at no charge. They do ask for photos and description of the issue.

      • +1

        Do you have a Magsafe ring holder to try? I believe that majority of cases with the hinge protection won't be able to stand it vertically. Sometimes I like to read news by standing the device verticially. Therefore I have to choose the case without the hinge protection.

        • Can't say I've had any experience with the Magsafes. That does seem annoying though.

          To me hinge protection is non-negotiable after my ZF2 died from a drop onto the hinge

    • +2

      I bought a Nillkin Super Frosted Shield Fold Case for $44 — about the same price as on AliExpress. If you can get cashback, it's actually cheaper from AliExpress.

    • Check these from Amazon:

      For better protection:
      https://amzn.asia/d/37q64jI

      For slim profile:
      https://amzn.asia/d/0bXA4OD

      But front part of all cases is always tricky and lift the screen protector. So need to teat that for cases+screen protector

      • I bought the first one after seeing your comment earlier, but it’s not as good as I expected. The back attracts a lot of fingerprints, and the front left edge is too weak — it shifts every time I touch it. It should have had double-sided tape to hold it more securely to the screen, like the Galaxy Z Fold7 Capella case does. Since neither case protects the hinge, I bought the Nillkin one. I hope it’s as good as I expect.

        • I bought the 2nd one earlier. Its fits snuggly but interferes with the glass screen protector I installed despite protectors is a few mm short of the screen edges. So, I ordered the 2nd one last night hoping it would be a better one. It was delivered today but haven’t tested it yet.
          Can anyone else recommend any slim profile case with MagSafe magnet that works well with the glass screen protectors. Not sure if Samsung anti-reflector film will work with these cases.

        • Capella is made by Spigen and I got it with my accessories voucher but it doesn't have hinge protection…

          • @KB57: Same, I got it from Samsung too. Since it doesn't protect the hinge, so I bought the Nillkin one . I'm not sure if I can return it to Samsung.

        • +1

          Let us know how is the Nillkin case. May buy that if feedback is good.

          • +1

            @OZBsince2018: I received the case today. Their website mentioned 3–5 days shipping, but it took over 10 days to arrive. Even if I had ordered from AliExpress, I might’ve received it sooner.
            The case itself is really nice. I’ve bought one from Amazon, one from eBay, and even the most expensive one from Samsung — but this is the best. It even includes four double-sided straps for the left side edge frame if the film screen protector is replaced.
            Now I can move the edge panels to the left, as this case is lower than the Samsung one.
            The only drawback is that it doesn’t have a magnetic ring and is 3cm wider due to the hinge protection.

            • @jimojr: Thanks for the feedback. Seems you must have bought the version that doesn't have MagSafe ring. They have exactly same case available with the MagSafe ring which costs a few dollars more. May be have a look and check

              • @OZBsince2018: I don’t plan to buy another one, I’m happy with this one.

  • I'm returning mine. Just can't stand the dot in the corner

    • Seems like a very polarising feature!
      Doesn't bother me at all personally

    • +1

      let us know if samsung offers something for you to keep it =)

      • Lolllzzzzz thats real OZB trait 👍🏻

      • +1

        They just told me to return within 30 days. No discount

        • Just out of curiosity, does the 30 days return window applies to the accessories also that you bought with the phone i.e. watch or buds etc? Will that be refunded too?

          • @OZBsince2018: You have to return the whole thing. It doesnt let you keep anything individually

            • +1

              @Feeblely: Which version/colour/ and accessories did you get and for how much? If you're in Sydney and just bought the base version my cousin might be interested for same price you paid.

              I showed him mine and he wanted one but the preorder deal is not available anymore

      L take unfortunately.

  • Anyone share their experience with the battery life? Seems the Fold 7 ticks all the right upgrade boxes over the Fold 6 but maintains small 4400 mAh battery. Bit of a deal breaker for me and hesistant to pull the trigger to buy one unless the battery life is good.

    • I've had the fold 7 for 2 days now and the battery seems abysmal. Doesn't charge very fast either

      I came from the iPhone 16 pro max.

      I'm thinking I might return it although I really did want it to work out 😔

      • Most devices need atleast a week or two of your battery usage pattern thereafter does get better. Probably give it another week or so :)

      • Are you getting "super fast charging" when you plug it in to charge?

      • -1

        Screen on time ?

      • The battery size and charging speed aren't the best on Samsung fold series. I have been upgrading the fold device every year and do enjoy the experience of the big screen. However it's a bit of annoying that the expensive device charges at such low speed and has so small battery capacity. The nature of android OS definitely needs a bigger battery comparing to IOS. I don't think you should compare the battery life of Fold 7 to Iphone 16 pro max as both are built for a different purpose.

        Samsung phones charge faster than iPhone so that doesn't make sense? What screen time are you getting?

    • +1

      I upgraded from a fold4 - absolutely fantastic battery life for me so far on the 7.
      I set up as a new phone and not from backup - have found in the past that can help!

    • Mine's been very good. 7-8 hours screen on time, sometimes more as a power user. Much better than my S24 Ultra which is not what I was expecting. Very impressed.

      • Did you turn off any settings? or any tips you could share to improve the battery life. Thanks

  • +1

    Anyone else's trade in from Asurion bug out? Never received a notification or label to return my Flip 7 order, and the Samsung order page says 'UpdateError' under the trade in. For my Fold I got an email immediately and the order page says 'Updated'. I guess I'll avoid the $30/60 fee on that one.

    • Just log in to Trade Up Portal https://samsungtradeup.asurion.com.au/

      • Yeah it just says Trade ID Used with no label generated to send it back. I guess they haven't received a notification that the phone was delivered. Might get my $1 back lol.

        • Similar happened to me and they eventually came chasing 6 months later. Mine was due to an instore pickup that they never ticked off

  • Anyone still have the trade in bonus voucher 7LC OR 7LS code?
    Thinking to do a last min order , 15 mins left.

  • I received a call today saying that my trade in device is not eligible. So they need to charge back the trade in bonus. I was asked to provide invoice to show the amount of trade in bonus I used in order to let them charge my credit card. Anyone else received such a call?

    • That's odd, they normally just charge back to Trade price, usually you get to keep the Trade In Bonus.

    • +1

      I’ve never seen that before. You have 30 days to change your mind, so just return everything.

  • Has anyone received a refund of the Security Charge in full yet?
    My two orders are stuck at 'Delivered to Asurion 29/07.
    1 order Security Refund Success 01 Aug 2025, but didn't receive the money…

  • +1

    i didn't return $1 phone and got charged $30 today.

    • Same here

    • That's pretty good, I got charged $60 for not returning my non existent damaged Samsung Watch.

      • Got charged $30 for a damaged $1 galaxy watch
