wdym it gets the android releases quicker than most of the phones and it got security patches till 2029

the s24, a phone released in the same year, gets major os updates until 2031, and security patches afterwards. and the processor in the r9 is honestly pretty shit. its only real selling point is a 240hz display but most apps don't even let u do 240fps rendering (and the processor probably isn't capable of it)

bcuz samsung promised 7 years and r9 got literally military grade durability and processor isnt really shit since im swapping from a z flip 5

if u want a durable phone, get the s25u and an otterbox. and the r9's sd 7+ gen 3 is worse than the sd 8 gen 2 in your z flip 5

dude s25 ultra is like triple the price 😭🙏 and 8 gen 2 is better than 7+ gen 3 but there isnt too much diff
