I have one, replaced a perfectly good Fold3 that I've had since launch. but I've put it in a fat case to take up some of the camera thickness.
But I wish they would do something like a Fold LITE without the cameras. Just put a basic lower end camera on the back with no bump. I don’t care if it's only as good as an old Note 9 (their last flagship with a flat back!) that's more than enough camera for me and I like using my fold in tablet mode flat on a desk.
Having tried it out at the store, it feels like a downgrade in every way in the usability and functionality department. No pen support, what's the use of such a large screen if you can't write on it? Wider screen so now it's actually impossible to use one handed while folded. They got rid of the under display camera on the inner screen which people don't use often to begin with.
No pen support? WTF? That would be the only reason I buy such a device.
