Obscenely good was paying $250 total out of pocket in 2022 for the S22 Ultra 256GB I am currently using (huge thread here on SD).
Obscenely good was buying a used S23 Ultra for $360, and then trading it in for a Pixel 9 Pro XL 256GB and paying $140 after trade in (so total $500 out of pocket), plus getting a $200 BestBuy GC on top of that.
Almost $1300 with tax for the Fold is not what I would call "obscenely" good if you are a seasoned SDer. But if you are used to paying retail for iPhones, then yes, it's a good deal.

Samsung is no longer offering much in the way of amazing trade in deals but if you have no other option and want a great foldable, $1200 or less plus whatever you can get for your phone is still slick. Pixel fold deals are shit, OnePlus open is fine but I wouldn't pay $1300 or so for that when the 2 is around the corner and other Chinese brands aren't worth buying in the US due to lack of support.

But yes, I agree, the crazy Samsung deals from 2022 are not coming back. I got my S22 Ultra 256GB, which is a $1200 phone (over $1300 with tax) for free after trading in a S21 that I bought for $250 from eBay (so total out of pocket was $250). Had to jump through a few hoops like opening and closing a TMobile account, but it was well worth it.
So yeah, I think I would call the two deals above "obscene", but this is a decent deal if you were going to buy a Fold 6 anyways. Just hard for people like me to spend that kind of money after doing so many other deals over the years. Haha.

Folds just don't hold their value like regular phones for multiple reasons. For example, off and on I'm seeing Fold5s being sold for around the $500-$600 range on Ebay just one year+a month later. if you paid retail, that's about $100 a month in loss of value.
In terms of foldable, it looks like the only company that is truly innovating as of this moment is Huawei with their tri fold Mate XT that unflolds into a 10.2" tablet sized device. Hopefully, we will see more innovation from Samsung on that front.
For me, the camera upgrades were the biggest reason to upgrade phones in the past, but my S22 Ultra still takes amazing photos compared to the S24 Ultra, so two years later, I have hardly any reason to upgrade besides that flat display.
I thing flagship smartphones have truly plateaued in the last two year or so. Good for consumers as we should start seeing more incentives from manufacturers to upgrade to the new phones.

And who knows, maybe Samsung will surprise us with awesome launch deals like they did with the Galaxy Watch 7 and Buds 3 launch. They gave me $200 for my old Galaxy Watch 4 when trading in for a GW7 + a free band. Combined with edu and CB, I ended up getting my GW7 for around $50. Also got Bude 3 (non pro) for $80 total out of pocket.
