Z Fold 3 update security still on July?

Did you deep sleep as many apps as possible and disable stock apps you don't need? Dark mode Chrome with the rest of the system really helped me.

For me Chrome has been a system resource hog too so I now disable this and exclusively use Samsung Internet now,

Stop using Chrome or Edge, start using Brave.

Everyone has their own preferences and if your choice of internet browser ticks those wants and needs boxes then sweet.

However in my own personal wants and needs I find that Samsung Internet integrates very well with the phone , provides the features I want and use, and does not cain the battery thus ticks my own boxes.

+1 for Samsung internet. One handed use and customization at its finest.

I like Brave because of the feature ad blocker and tracing.

Samsung Internet Browser also supports ad blocking.

Hoping we get one soon. My phone is buggy and the battery life sucks. Hoping there's bug fixes in the next one

For battery ensure you go into settings / Location / Improve Accuracy and turn them off. You'll notice a significant increase in battery on Z Fold 3. It will not affect GPS or location...

Facebook is one of the usual suspects in regards to apps that are resource hungry due to the way they constantly update in the background and send notifications.
If Facebook does cause an issue then a person can change the preference settings and look at sleep and deep sleep app options, or access Facebook via their browser url instead and disable the Facebook app.

I did that on my S10+ because it drained too much and uploads data I don't want uploaded. I use the browser link as I don't use it very often.

Are the European Unlocked variant Exynos or SnapDragon 888?

Are the European Unlocked variant Exynos or SnapDragon 888?

If I recall, NONE of the Fold3 variants have Exynos. ALL of them are Snapdragon 888.

Thank you for that info, I've been meaning to ask this for awhile and keeps forgetting.

Are there any specific improvements for battery, camera, etc mentioned in the update or is it just security update?

 

[Talderon]

Yeah, it looks like Sept update is rolling out in Europe and Asia, so the US should get it sometime soon-ish?

They are SnapDragon soc.

Samsung always seem to not be specific to what's included.

Pretty good size update

How long does it take for a phone to settle I to the new update? So far this feels worse than the July one..(not had a chance to check battery)

Seems to feel quite laggy/not as smooth as it was before
