    If only it had a proper screen ratio, bigger screen, bigger battery and better cameras it would be perfect.

    Still won’t get one. I don’t like Samsung’s OS.

      Okay why are you here

    Why is the Z Flip 3’s battery so low though? It’s 3300 mAh whereas my S20 FE 5G has 4500 mAh.

    • CynicalSpheres

      August 15, 2021 at 3:29 pm

      Size. Use your brain.

    • therealtoine

      August 15, 2021 at 3:35 pm

      So much it can fit for a foldable

    • Russell

      August 15, 2021 at 3:40 pm

      @CynicalSpheres No need to be rude.

    • matt brennan

      August 15, 2021 at 3:46 pm

      I’m guessing with the little screen being what it is
      You’ll not have to open the phone open as often, perhaps it’ll help with battery life?

    • therealtoine

      August 15, 2021 at 3:52 pm

      @matt brennan Yeah that’s what I think also. Plus helps me not use my phone frequently. So a little screen like that with the widgets would help

    I couldn’t pass up the trade in value Samsung was offering for my 2 year old S10+, so I’m jumping ship.

    • Cheddar323

      August 15, 2021 at 8:13 pm

      I have the S20, I’m thinking of trading it in. How much credit did you get for your phone?

  5. IBU OR UBME

    August 15, 2021 at 4:18 pm

    I don’t think the flip has SD 888 only the fold. But it does indeed have SD 888 after checking. I thought it was SD865.

  6. CaptainBearPants

    August 15, 2021 at 4:36 pm

    I can’t wait to get this phone. Bored of my iPhone 11.

  7. Mr Smith

    August 15, 2021 at 4:54 pm

    But is it actually a flagship phone? It’s a great improvement on previous models, but it lacks so much. The camera isn’t great, it does not have a SD card slot, and no dust resistance. The Note 20 Ultra keeps me from lugging my Nikon DSLR all of the time.

    • Smashed Up Toaster

      August 15, 2021 at 6:06 pm

      Yes. It’s a flagship phone. It’s got snapdragon 888, 120hz refresh rate, and water resistance. But because it folds, it has compromises. It has less room for battery and SD card. And it’s really hard to seal from dust. But even non folding phones don’t have SD in 2021

    • Mr Smith

      August 15, 2021 at 6:22 pm

      A New processor and it folds. That’s all it takes to be a flagship phone?!? Water resistance helps. I can use it in the rain, but I must make sure I run the vacuum at home. I’m glad I have home server. And does it have DEX? Sigh

      I’ll hold on to my Note 20 Ultra. As a matter of fact, I’ll root it so that the updates don’t turn it into a paperweight over time.

    Just pre-ordered the Flip 3. I’m so excited when it arrives!

    August 15, 2021 at 5:13 pm

    On Samsungs website the black 128 and 256 gb are both $999 I don’t know how long it will stay like this

    • Smashed Up Toaster

      Until preorders end. August 27

    August 15, 2021 at 5:23 pm

    It’s sad nobody really cares about these phones. Especially in US

  12. TakeTheBluePill NotTheRedPill

    August 15, 2021 at 5:46 pm

    Wish it was a bit bigger than its size. And better camera. But for price ,I guess thats not too bad and really thinking about getting this phone and I only had my Note 20 5g since mid last year and ready for a new phone already.

  13. Brock

    August 15, 2021 at 6:02 pm

    I’m giving this a try to get away from apple & iphone 12 pro max. Here’s to hoping the camera holds up

      @Caesar Finkelstein true that, but at least I am not a paranoid schizofrenic with delusions of epic proportions.

      Ps I can see you now in you camera please put some proper clothes on you’re a disgrace.

      August 15, 2021 at 9:31 pm

      There are many new upgrades but water resistance alone on foldable is incredible. I also like front screen being a lot bigger

    I have a Samsung note 10 + . Thinking about this but I’m a bit weary about the camera

  21. Connor Fuller

    I would assume this wouldn’t be possible to put a case on?

    Only think im mad about is the no DEX and the battery size

  23. 레오

    August 16, 2021 at 12:28 am

    Samsung: 4x larger Cover Screen; 2x more scratch resistant
    Apple: 25% larger…; 50% more…
    Apple just makes everything sound impressive. 😅

    Ze Flip 3 is a major leap… cost less too which is amazing!

  27. Michael Hanik

    Screen should come with 3 years guaranty. If it will snap they returning money.

    Does nobody want to talk about how are we going to install a screen protective layer on a flip phone ? I mean Samsung did made a statement on the new z flip 3 that the screen is stronger and resilient from its predecessor. But you never know right.

    • wild seeley artist

      August 16, 2021 at 6:36 am

      Why would you need a screen protector? The screen folds right? The shell is the screen protector

    • Hanif Mansor

      August 16, 2021 at 6:47 am

      @wild seeley artist I know but it still doesn’t feel right when the screen wasn’t added an extra layer of protection.

    Great review 😊

  33. Cookey

    August 16, 2021 at 5:35 am

    The only thing i’m concerned of would be the 3300 mAh battery life tho…im still on my note 8 which have the same battery size, im gonna say..im not please with the battery life…with Flip 3’s upgraded specs would 3300mAh be a problem tho…??HMMMM

    • La Fée Chloé

      August 16, 2021 at 8:56 pm

      but the processor of note 8 is engraved in 10nm where that of flip 3 is engraved in 5 … This difference changes a lot of things in theory! and then the screen is smaller

    • Cookey

      August 17, 2021 at 12:34 am

      @La Fée Chloé yeah…theres alot of upgrades compared to note 8 tht im still using which could have optimize the batt llife…i guess imma wait for the batt life test video

  34. Sushila Sah

    August 16, 2021 at 7:56 am

    The original screen was tiny so that this doesn’t feel tiny when compared

      Interesting idea.

  35. FMCREPAIRARMAGH

    August 16, 2021 at 8:51 am

    I am tempted by the £499 price if I trade in my z fold 2 I never use the folds bigger screen

  36. Trang

    August 16, 2021 at 9:08 am

    it looks less luxurious from the previous model

  37. Bo Soerjadi

    August 16, 2021 at 10:30 am

    It also looks a bit less like a makeup box, as the previous ones did.

  42. Rasmus Galskjøt

    I would have thought this was a apple phone. It really gives me iPhone 11 vibes with the camera and the sides.

    This is the future. If this phone can hold with out problems, then fellow citizens the world has been changed once again. Imagine being able to fold a digital high performance screen in 2 and putting it in your pocket??? A device that is your card to living on earth, now foldable??? No more unfoldable, space consuming, hard candy bar devices?? I see and feel apple and other may follow suit. Watch this space.

    Looks like samsung finally got tired of copying everything Apple does with the iPhone. Hopefully this gives the other phone manufacturers confidence to do something different with their product. Back in the day smartphones all looked different. Cell phones were different. Then they all started copying the iPhone, and YES that’s a fact- they all started copying the iPhone. Leading to it becoming a normal overused a boring design. I no longer use Samsung phones, but this was one of the best business decisions in recent Smartphone history. I really like this from them.

    August 17, 2021 at 12:36 am

    Does z flip.have dex? NO, not wasting my money, no micro SD card, not getting my money. Samsung has forgotten people switched because they defied apple. Now they are the same as apple greedy and useless.
