Is there anyway to increase the clock size fonts on the home screen? I can hold and increase the size of the widget but it doesn't change the font size and there is no setting for the fonts that I can see.

Download Good Lock and the ClockFace plugin and you'll be able to customize pretty much anything to do with the clock.

Nothing there in Clockface, I have seen YouTube videos, it is supposed to work with the standard UI when you increase the size of widget. Very weird. You have all this real estate inside the screen and tiny size 9-10 fonts. What is the point of increasing the size of widget? Hopefully there is an update to fix all these issues.

There is no option for fonts.

I'm happy with the digital clock font size (it's pretty big/bold) but I want the associated date to be much bigger. It's miniscule and can't seem to change that.

Try Home Up > Home Screen > DIY Home Screen.
The Samsung clock widgets can be resized a little, but the Google ones can fill the screen if you want.

My order status in the Telstra app has changed from "delayed" to "in progress" hopefully that means soon. So excited to see this phone in person lol.

I did the Jb hi fi pre order deal.

I got JB to port my number to the new JB sim they gave me. I bought a fresh Amaysim sim. Do i port my number again to the new Amaysim Sim FIRST and THEN cancel the 24 month plan at JB?

Just confused about the order of things. Please help. Thanks

JB Hi-fi is sold out in their Chadstone store. Frustrating
I should have gotten it via a carrier

True. See lots long time iPhone ppl converting to Fold including me. I tried Fold 2 but went back to iPhone after 10 months because it was too heavy and outer screen not usable. Tried Fold 7 in store, a new level. Can't wait for mine to be delivered on 5th. It was saying 10th delivery so looks like Samsung is working hard.

I’ve said this before on here, I’m absolutely sold on these new devices and really impressed with Samsung pushing the envelope. If I wasn’t so far into Apple ecosystem I would have bought one.

Most carriers seem to be out of stock on the 1TB models too. Still waiting for my shadow blue I ordered on the 21st.

Whenever I get message notifications (Messenger/SMS/etc) the little notification pop-up appears, but pressing on it doesn't open the message. If I want to open the message, I have to press on the little arrow next to the notification pop-up.

On my previous phone, I could open the message just by pressing on the pop-up.

Is this a UI change, or have I changed something in settings?

Yeah, me too and my wife and friends all using iPhone. Will be a pain quick sharing photos in future. But whatever, will deal with it.

And I am just disappointed at Apple in general.

Bought Apple Care+ for iPhone 16 Pro and had deep straches on the phone, wanting to get it replaced for trade in. Apple Store genius bar guy told me no.... Need to submit to AIG for an insurance claim, and now if my screen is actually cracked, they would say I am commiting an insurance fraud....

I would honestly go to Fair Trading over this. Quite sure fraud is what they're doing ie selling a 'care' plan and then refusing to honor it. They don't get to accuse you like that.

Anyone gotten the $600 trade in bonus through Telstra? I handed in my old phone at a Telstra store earlier this week and got the agreed-on trade in value, guy said that the $600 bonus comes from Samsung so they can't confirm it in their system.

I would've assumed the bonus would come the same time as the trade in credit but it didn't.
