Yea came from Find N5. Have been using foldables since Fold 1.

The phone is great, but the weight bothered me a lot and I dont think it will change. A lot of times I will be using it on the go, like walking, or when I'm driving to send a quick text. The weight makes it unwieldy for single hand use, my hands are not big so may be different for other people. So for my use case, its not suitable. I suspected it would be before buying, but just wanted to confirm for myself.

To use it in its full glory the screen have to be open, but when its open, its even more difficult for 1 handed use. So yea, maybe next generation when they think of a way to make it lighter.
I just came back from lunch.... and I'm holding a brick all the time. -.-

I feel u too. think I will let go at RRP. any1 keen can pm me.

With a lightweight case i measured 329grams. The stock case is even heavier so should be around 340g with the provided case. Anyone coming from ZF7 or Find N5 or Magic V5 will be facing an increase of 100g or more, it is quite significant.

u need to bring around, then will feel it.
yea i brought it around yesterday night to go singtel shop to change my esim back to physical sim (even the singtel shop person couldnt believe this phone has no esim support), halfway i felt like asking the person dont change to physical sim already because i think i wont be using the phone.

But i tried to tong, then this morning when i woke up i almost drop the phone while trying to off the alarm...thats when i decided to sell it.

After selling my trifold, I actually went back to oppo find n5 and it was so nice to hold and deal with on a daily basis.

so many buyer's remorse...so soon.
Not buyer's remorse for me, i dont feel guilty for buying it, or spending that money. I think its the same for others as well. It just didnt suit my lifestyle and use case. I would happily continue using it if it was 50g lighter. On paper the weight may not seem much, but in real life its different.

But those on carousell I believe they just want to make some money
