Looking forward to getting a fold!

I currently have an iPhone 16 pro (forced to upgrade from my 13 pro due to it completely dying on me). I should have upgraded to the fold instead and now I kind of regret it. I’m not that deep into the Apple ecosystem, don’t use airdrop, FaceTime and I don’t really care if my messages are blue. It’s time for a change for me personally, and I’m stuck with the pickle of upgrading to the fold 7 now or waiting for the fold 8…..you guys have any advice or recommendations?
