1 month with my z flip 3 and my battery has improved tremendously after it needed to learn my usage. I am not getting away from flip phones, way too much fun! Fits everywhere!
I’m so close to trading my iphone for this. I’m tired of being in the apple ecosystem. Feels like they want me to be tethered to apple devices for life. I’ll break free soon.
😂 You people are so illogical, are you saying samsung doesn’t have an ecosystem of their own? And also can you please show me one company that their main job is not to keep you using their products as long as possible? That’s literally one of the dumbest reasons I’ve seen yet, no prob in wanting a change but don’t give a stupid reason for it
@@dabenci42 i said im tired of being in the apple ecosystem and currently contemplating to switch. I didnt say samsung didnt have an ecosystem of its own. Read the room.
Good to see you being an apple fan, still appreciates products from other manufacturers if they are really good. There are lots of UA-camrs who just doesn't do that. 👍
As a teen in the 90s, I would get Game Pro, EGM, and Next Gen mags just to read about SNES, PS1, or DC. Flip 3 is now a mini version of all those consoles I loved as a kid.
What a person you are. You are there on every flip 3 video. Just praising it blindly without any facts keeping forward neither answering to valid questions to your comments by people. Me Just being outspoken here
@@saicharanmobile6786 I totally agree. He is only talking to himself here trying to convince himself that he made a good decision. Its annoying but yeah tbh I kind of look for his comments on every Flip 3 video and feel good too that I'm not the only one watching almost every video out there 😅😂😂
@@RajAryan ha ha ha I'm getting tempted to purchase flip 3, but battery back up is holding me off strictly. But yeah I'm out there watching most of the videos on flip 3 😁
@@saicharanmobile6786 Same 😂. More so after watching yesterday's Apple event. Battery backup is the one thing we should make our minds beforehand otherwise we will end up like this guy here 🤪
switched over from iPhone 12 pro max to Z Flip3 and love it. Glad I made the change, feels like I have an actual mini laptop with me instead of just a smartphone. not to mention how much light and compact it is.
I saved too, and yes it's worth it, i have one, so much fun, you can like set it in areas, and it will stand for selfies, and the back little screen were back cameras at, it shows what the picture looks like that way you can get in the right spot for th a Picture.
I love this phone. It fits so perfect in my pocket and the way it looks and feels is just great. I don't see myself getting rid of this phone anytime soon
I just bought one of these recently and I love it. Also would recommend owners of the z flip 3 to look into the features of the phone. There are a ton of cool features with this phone. Like making the mini screen a view finder when taking pictures so you can see what you like.
I have loved this channel since I started watching when the m1 macs came out (and I did buy a mac mini base because I wanted to get back into macs especially now they're cheaper). You have the same joy with the z flip 3 as I do. You hit everything on the head about the productivity aspect and the joy of having essentially a tricorder. I love this phone because I can now fit them in my tiny pockets at work or just see quick notifications on the cover screen when it's sitting on my desk instead of having to light up the whole screen. I've been watching this series (the samsung flip/fold series) since it came out I'm hoping the folding screen holds out that is my only worry but let's hope third time is a charm.
Bought this when contract from s20 plus was almost up. Ok the line or crease through the centre does put some of my friends off, but at same time others and myself don't mind it. It's really nice and compact and gas some well thought features especially with photography/video taking using front mini screen. I'm really impressed and loving it. I purchase a clear plastic case that has hinge protection and the sticker that looks like it shows inside of phone. Battery life fine for me.
The Galaxy Note S8 has been tremendously great to me and for me over that past 4 years If I didn't have to get a new phone instead of getting it fixed a 2nd time I would just keep it, it was and still is a great device in my opinion but the flip does catch my attention and the flipping feature is just a plus to me fits better in a pocket.
Exactly what i've been experienced with mine, especially about the cover screen, it's help me reduce my on screen time from checking notifications, so now i can self filter my social media notification, now i only open the main screen for important message, a short session of gaming, or watch some youtube clip... kinda therapudic
You convinced me. Late to the party, but just bought it today. Samsung has some great deals with trade-ins right now $420 with shipping - woohooo! P.S. I am a Note fanatic for the last 10 years but this little phone stole my heart! lol.
I ordered this phone, can't wait to get it. I changed from iPhone to android many years ago. I considered changing back but then saw this phone! Had to try it.
I had a Samsung galaxy s9. I saw the advertisement for the Z Flip 3 phone and feel in love with it. Just received my Z flip 3 yesterday I absolutely love it more in person. Very fast and easy to use. The only thing I disliked was there is no way to add memory card in the phone. I wish it was water proof instead of water resistant. But it's still a great phone. The main reason I bought it was because I can put in my back pocket without worrying about me losing or dropping it
It's honestly as water proof as you need it to be. IPX8 means it's rated at 1.5m for 30min, meaning if you keep it under 1.5m of water up to 30min, it's still fine. So splashes next to the sink, taking it into the shower to listen to music/watch videos, or even an accidental drop in a puddle or pool should be totally fine!
I have this phone on contract (5G contract with EE) and I love it. Everything about this phone is perfect except the battery of course. 3300 mAh is not enough for a power house of a revolutionary phone like this. I hope they upgrade the battery next time if a new Flip Model 4 is released to a battery capacity of about 3800mAh. With 120hz refresh rate on and 5G Internet connectivity, it is a sure way to drain the battery quickly. The battery of the Z Flip 3 is the only negative thing about this phone. Apart from that it is a beauty 😍❤
My samsung note 9 has served me very well these past four years. Upgraded to this phone and couldn't be any happier, some battery changes and it holds the whole Day and some more even. I really like the functions it makes it more special. I probably will never go back to flat phones if they keep upgrading z flip series. Can't wait what they'll do with the cover screen in the future!
also switching from an iphone to a zf3, though I was always an android user before I got the iPhone 11. It's been a good phone, but I hate the way Apple locks you into using only their stuff.
I've got the Flip3. And to me its not about what it does when open. Almost any other phone can do what it does or better, and sometimes cheaper. No, its about what it does when closed that makes the difference. And that is being able to put it in my pocket without giving myself a vasectomy every time I sit down. If being compact when you put it away is not your number one top of the list priority, then this phone is not for you.
Just ordered this phone today. Will be here tomorrow. After watching this video and a few others I'm SUPER psyched to get this phone! I'll give my own impressions after I've used it for awhile.
Think the Flip3 is close to where Samsung wants to go... They'll maybe make the outside screen bigger, add battery and camera and improve the inner screen durability but it will take another 5-10years for them to invent something like the unscratchable folding screen without crease
@@tschumitjuu I think an outside bigger screen would literally ruin it. It would look more like half a screen shoved into that spot. That line for some reason between the screen next to the camera and the color of the phone personally looks sleek and appealing. A screen would ruin that look…
I've been on the fence over buying the flip 3 since it was released. I feel like I would love it but I'm worried about the long term durability of the screens. I don't want something that'll work great the first year then die
@@MD-wz8uz Why am I dated? I'm legitimately concerned about buying the phone and it not lasting. Have you used the Flip 3 and if so would you reccomend it over something like the S21 Ultra or Pixel 6 Pro?
As a long term appleuser (and bothside), this time Z Filp 3 let me switch from iphone12 pro without any question. Most apps can easy to tranfer to this phone even whatsapp ,photos..(just trade it ). Maybe it is not the perfect ,but I am so happy to use.
It was hands down the best phone I've ever had, until a crack appeared on the fold of the phone 2 months after getting it. And then Samsung's technical team decided that it was user fault and voided the warranty, but offered a discount repair price out of "good will". Their forum is full of furious customers worldwide who got exactly the same responses. Everyone is at fault for the crack on the fold of a foldable phone but not Samsung. Last item I will ever be buying from them after over a decade, either an Apple or Google Pixel I think.
Thank you! I just posted my experience too. Mine began to crack after about 7 months. Samsung said it was my fault for folding it "improperly" and "too much" (?!?!?l). Excuse me, it's a FLIP PHONE!!!
Thanks for the phone…and agreed 100% that it would be great if Samsung made a phone that was basically only the front of the Flip 3. (My Flip 3 comes this week.)
If I wasn’t deeply embedded (and very satisfied) with the Apple ecosystem I would absolutely buy this phone. My first cell was a StarTAC and that satisfying close to hang up is still a memory of tactile joy. Oh well, have to wait for Apple to do something interesting like this, maybe in version 14…
I was an avid Apple user and personally was off put by trying different phone brands due to what I was used to. Push came to shove, and I branched out. Basically, Samsung is king and Motorola phones can go die 😂😂 No really, I was blown away by how many more features these phones have! I've bought older Samsungs as well as using my Note 10+ working like a charm to this day. My boyfriend only gets Iphones and I almost feel sorry for him 😂😂😂 lol jk, don't be afraid to try something new tho
Thank you for the great presentation. I did set it to the 60 something, cant recall the tech term, for battery life and it is still spectacular. I dont mind the need for extra charging due to the smaller battery. Im on day 3 of a 14 day return option at Best Buy and so far I am loving it. Jan 2, 2022
@Marisela Quintero I kept it. It's great. Really compact and light when folded. Like, where's it at? Lol. Only once got hot. Turned off for 10 min to make sure all background apps closed. Then no problem. Read instructions. These are new batteries and have a setting to stop charging at 85% for better battery life. I am very pleased with it. 👍🤗🤳
This is the most expensive phone I have ever bought, And it is the only smartphone I have owned, where I've decided to not use a case. Just feels so much better to hold it without.
I think this is the best video ever to getting everyone to buy this phone!! 😍😍🤩😊🥰🙌 I’ve always been a Samsung fan when it comes to phones. And this flip phone coming from Samsung excites me!! 🤩🤩👍 It seriously looks so GOOD! 🥰😎
To me, the form factor is really the only reason to buy the Flip. You can do better with the "boring" S21 Ultra for the same price (unlocked on ebay). I have an old flip style phone from 2005 that I couldn't get rid of years ago. I take it out from time to time if I want to flip something. If there is another version of the Flip next year, hopefully they put in a larger capacity battery, and for the price, put in the same camera that the ultra uses.
I've been recently thinking about this phone for an upgrade. After a good amount of time, do you still like the phone? Has the screen held up? I've also heard about the screen catching a lot of dust/dirt
there is only 2 things keeping me from buying it. the price and ESPECIALY the battery. i use my phone a lot and ive always had battery problems with all my phone which im really tired of. this phone looks like the coolest though
I love my phone. I left iphone 11 max. battery 🔋 life is not bad as ppl make it out to be. Mine last me all day. I haven't complaints got tired of iphone not making any changes no more than the camera. Well I wanted a physical change and they wasn't getting it for me! So I'm giving Samsung a shot for at least at year. I'm loving it 😁
just know the risks, personally the only downsides for me is the short battery and as someone w acrylic nails i have to be way more careful to not dent the screen. at the end of the day its up to you but i love mine so much and being able to keep it closed out in public and able to control music on the cover screen makes it perfect. but the main risk id say is the screen going black in the middle, ive had mine for over 3 months and no problems yet but ik people started to get a crack later on and it slowly became a whole black bar in the center.
got it yesterday. SUPER FAN. 2 THINGS: Yes, it doesnt have DEX, but you can connect via wifi or BT with PC LINK (windows). ITS PEREFCT! Second: Nothing says; Shut the hell up, like a clamshell. lol.
Week 3 with my flip3 and enjoying it. Battery life was the one downside, but it's become considerably better with time. I'll be sticking with this phone👍
@@liz-yn6ou I had it 3 days and returned it and went back to iPhone, the main reason was battery life. I use my phone a lot daily for work and it just wouldn’t last for me. As far as the phone it was super cool with the “flip” part of it. If it had a bigger battery I would have stayed with it, also it’s really hard going from iPhone OS to android lol.
Nobody is talking about what this phone feels like in the pocket. I'd like to know more about that - it's thicker so does that make it less comfortable in the front pocket of jeans? Or is it more comfortable?
The thing I like about the Flip is I can now bend over to tie my shoes without taking the phone out of my front pocket. I couldn't do that with my Note 9. There is though the scare of reaching into my pocket and thinking, Oh No! where's my phone. Oh, it's just farther down in my pocket.
I agree 100% with You buuuuuuuuuuuut I have owned DOZENS of Samsung phones looooooove them and my note 10 note 20 ect batteries lasted me 2 -3 days HEAVY HEAVY usage EASILY and this one I LIVE ON THE WALL always charging it but other than that INDEEDABLY A FLAWLESS INNOVATED FLAGSHIP DESIGN!
I'm watching this on my ZFlip3 not even sure why I watched this but dad to dad, good video. :) One thing: the closed mode only allows Samsung Pay (not Googly Pay) which is annoying but understandable. What's not okay is that the closed mode Pay requires your thumb scan, doesn't allow other password systems, and I don't want to give my biometrics to a private company. Small annoyance but great phone in general; I think of the battery as 'right sized' and when you said sports car, I thought hey, it's the Mazda Miata of current phones.
@@osoifamf Not much sadly, when I had I could see battery drain while playing any mobile app and even with battery saver on I’d have to charge by time I got home. I loved everything about the phone except the too small battery. I couldn’t wait any longer for software updates to address it. Went through 2 of the phones.
How does someone with only one phone switch? I am deep in the apple ecosystem. So i think about my phone… My cloud storage, my 217 passwords saved on iPhone, my apple news subscription, my Apple Arcade, Apple Music, and seamless transitions from iPhone to ipad to laptop with home pods. HOW can i replace all these things to use on a samsung flip? I’ve come to the realization that I really want the flip. But, I truly feel stuck in the apple walled garden.
@@darthkai8242 i had a zflip 3 for a little over 7 months and during that timeframe it cracked and formed a crease right along the fold. no other damage to the phone since i took perfect care of it; fast forward a few months later i’m attempting to switch phones because of this crack and crease not due to my poor caretaking and i’m told that my 600 dollar trade in value that the phone would have is no longer available due to this crease. 600 dollars down the drain due to a manufacturing defect. and as for the overheating, my zflip 3 would continuously overheat during videocalls and shut off apps or even the entire phone at random times. the only way to mediate the issue was to turn off motion smoothness disabling the 120hz refresh rate and closing all background apps. ontop of that, utilizing the picture in picture feature would cause the phone to overheat even quicker. it’s an unfinished product and i will never recommend such a failure to any of my peers because of the mediocre issues.
hey there! I'm going to need to buy a new smartphone soon. Would you recommend me Galaxy S22 Ultra that is coming with RTX, and a powerful chipset made with AMD, or Iphone 14 pro max?
Hmm I was gonna talk smack on the crease but I have a fold 3 that also has the crease and I've gotten used to it. I honestly wish the fold series had the same width as the flip series phones. The front display is just too narrow for practical usage.
The only thing that kills it for me is the battery life, other than that it's a pretty cool take on the "flip" niche. Makes way more sense than a phone that opens to reveal another phone. I love Apple but their decisions sometimes are mystifying - they clearly have in-button TouchID from the iPad Air and Mini...why not bring that to the iPhone? They've moved to USB-C on every device at this point except for the iPhone...why?
1 month with my z flip 3 and my battery has improved tremendously after it needed to learn my usage. I am not getting away from flip phones, way too much fun! Fits everywhere!

Nobody seems to talk about the fact that you can close the phone and protect the most fragile and expensive part of the whole device.
Excellent aspect of the device. I simply love the form factor
Yeah no need for casing,
unless you drop it while using it opened :/
Which in this case is EXTREMELY fragile.
@@fotone I mean its not "EXTREMELY" fragile. Look at the fold 3 drop test. Its not bad honestly

No really, I was blown away by how many more features these phones have! I've bought older Samsungs as well as using my Note 10+ working like a charm to this day. My boyfriend only gets Iphones and I almost feel sorry for him 😂😂😂 lol jk, don't be afraid to try something new tho
Bought this just for a change and its taken a week or so for me to like it as I was the same as you, apple contracts for 8+ years
Apple sheep
How many kids does he have the everyday DAD JUST ASKING !? 😂
Thank you for the great presentation. I did set it to the 60 something, cant recall the tech term, for battery life and it is still spectacular. I dont mind the need for extra charging due to the smaller battery. Im on day 3 of a 14 day return option at Best Buy and so far I am loving it. Jan 2, 2022
Did you return it, how did it go?
@Marisela Quintero I kept it. It's great. Really compact and light when folded. Like, where's it at? Lol. Only once got hot. Turned off for 10 min to make sure all background apps closed. Then no problem. Read instructions. These are new batteries and have a setting to stop charging at 85% for better battery life. I am very pleased with it. 👍🤗🤳
This is the most expensive phone I have ever bought, And it is the only smartphone I have owned, where I've decided to not use a case.
Just feels so much better to hold it without.
Got my Z Flip and I love it. I had the moto razr and I hated it. Took it back for the Z flip.
Great video man, it's so great to see you reviewing a galaxy phone.keep doing it!!! Please
js got it today and i'm still in awe, i kept pinching myself to see if it was actually real life and not just a dream 😭
How is it going so far ? Hope you like it
The small screen on the outside is just like having a smart watch.
I think this is the best video ever to getting everyone to buy this phone!! 😍😍🤩😊🥰🙌 I’ve always been a Samsung fan when it comes to phones. And this flip phone coming from Samsung excites me!! 🤩🤩👍 It seriously looks so GOOD! 🥰😎
I’m doing the big switch as well and I’m going to watch this daily so I don’t freak the fuck out 😩😩😳😳😳
I'm thinking which to buy, ZFlip or S22.
Same here. But im thinking to purchase z flip 3 in few more days considering my Samsung Galaxy A71 is still working
Nobody:
Absolutely nobody:
Me when click on this video: “oh he’s got a PlayStation shirt I can trust him”
What’s the best case to make the phone not SO SLIPPERY ????
To me, the form factor is really the only reason to buy the Flip. You can do better with the "boring" S21 Ultra for the same price (unlocked on ebay). I have an old flip style phone from 2005 that I couldn't get rid of years ago. I take it out from time to time if I want to flip something. If there is another version of the Flip next year, hopefully they put in a larger capacity battery, and for the price, put in the same camera that the ultra uses.
Samsung smart watches running Tizen OS operate almost identically to the folded functionality. Loving the phone!
What about hinge?? Will it last long. How many times we can flip it without any issue
I've been recently thinking about this phone for an upgrade. After a good amount of time, do you still like the phone? Has the screen held up? I've also heard about the screen catching a lot of dust/dirt
there is only 2 things keeping me from buying it. the price and ESPECIALY the battery. i use my phone a lot and ive always had battery problems with all my phone which im really tired of. this phone looks like the coolest though
I love my phone. I left iphone 11 max. battery 🔋 life is not bad as ppl make it out to be. Mine last me all day. I haven't complaints got tired of iphone not making any changes no more than the camera. Well I wanted a physical change and they wasn't getting it for me! So I'm giving Samsung a shot for at least at year. I'm loving it 😁
I'm on the fence about phones that don't have a good battery
You didn’t do it right. The way you ended a phone call with a a-hole in the old days was to slam it closed violently. Lol
Excellent video
Watching this is giving me more of a reason to trade out of my iPhone for the zflip3 ❤️🔥
I actually just got the z fold 3, and while i used to not like the flip 3 and it has grown on me a bit, i still like the fold 3 much better.
Very informative video thanks alot. New subscriber
Another great vid. Keep up the awesome work.
Im about to buy it today and im so nervous cause ppl around me keep telling me i should reconsider but im in love with this phone. Wish me luck xx
just know the risks, personally the only downsides for me is the short battery and as someone w acrylic nails i have to be way more careful to not dent the screen. at the end of the day its up to you but i love mine so much and being able to keep it closed out in public and able to control music on the cover screen makes it perfect. but the main risk id say is the screen going black in the middle, ive had mine for over 3 months and no problems yet but ik people started to get a crack later on and it slowly became a whole black bar in the center.
Can’t wait tell it can go buy one I’m super excited
got it yesterday. SUPER FAN. 2 THINGS:
Yes, it doesnt have DEX, but you can connect via wifi or BT with PC LINK (windows). ITS PEREFCT!
Second: Nothing says; Shut the hell up, like a clamshell. lol.
Week 3 with my flip3 and enjoying it. Battery life was the one downside, but it's become considerably better with time. I'll be sticking with this phone👍
Thats awesome! I'm glad you enjoy it!
How much screen on time can we expect buddy?
hey does your flip3 heat up?
Austin evans must be happy after watching this video
Ordered mine today. Leaving iPhone 11 Pro Max to this. Hoping I don’t regret it as I’ll be stuck with it for awhile lol
How is it?
@@liz-yn6ou I had it 3 days and returned it and went back to iPhone, the main reason was battery life. I use my phone a lot daily for work and it just wouldn’t last for me. As far as the phone it was super cool with the “flip” part of it. If it had a bigger battery I would have stayed with it, also it’s really hard going from iPhone OS to android lol.
What wallpaper is that?( All the colorful, paint blobs?)
just upgraded from a note 10 plus today and loving it so far.
How different is the battery life compared to the 10+? That's what I have and have been debating on getting the flip very soon.
@@shatteredscry def not the same as the note if you're a heavy user you'll hate it.
I like having the watch with it too. I can text and talk without going to the phone!
Hey great video. What was the reason you switched to Fi for this phone?
Hahaha i laughed hard min. 2:00 i used to do that and you are totally right 🤣🤣🤣 so satisfying 😌
I enjoyed your video. Blessings on your day.
Not related: Your voice is so smooth.
Str8 butter.
I need to start buying things out of curiosity.
Please can you link me to the wallpaper you're using at 01:40?
Excellent review!
Nobody is talking about what this phone feels like in the pocket. I'd like to know more about that - it's thicker so does that make it less comfortable in the front pocket of jeans? Or is it more comfortable?
I own this phone and love it! It feels great and better in my front pocket instead of the typical slab phone.
The thing I like about the Flip is I can now bend over to tie my shoes without taking the phone out of my front pocket. I couldn't do that with my Note 9. There is though the scare of reaching into my pocket and thinking, Oh No! where's my phone. Oh, it's just farther down in my pocket.
It's so light and small sometimes I panic about it even being there. Honest. IT IS SO LIGHT.
I agree 100% with You buuuuuuuuuuuut I have owned DOZENS of Samsung phones looooooove them and my note 10 note 20 ect batteries lasted me 2 -3 days HEAVY HEAVY usage EASILY and this one I LIVE ON THE WALL always charging it but other than that INDEEDABLY A FLAWLESS INNOVATED FLAGSHIP DESIGN!
I love how this is a direct response to Painfully Honest Tech's video of why you shouldn't buy a Z Flip 3 😂
I'm watching this on my ZFlip3 not even sure why I watched this but dad to dad, good video. :) One thing: the closed mode only allows Samsung Pay (not Googly Pay) which is annoying but understandable. What's not okay is that the closed mode Pay requires your thumb scan, doesn't allow other password systems, and I don't want to give my biometrics to a private company. Small annoyance but great phone in general; I think of the battery as 'right sized' and when you said sports car, I thought hey, it's the Mazda Miata of current phones.
Returning my flip3 5g after a month of hoping battery life would improve, it hasn't and I'm tired of charging my phone 3 times a day.
I don't know what u you doing , but mines no way near that bad
@@osoifamf
Not much sadly, when I had I could see battery drain while playing any mobile app and even with battery saver on I’d have to charge by time I got home.
I loved everything about the phone except the too small battery. I couldn’t wait any longer for software updates to address it. Went through 2 of the phones.
What game is that, that he is showing? It seems like a mario game. Is it a rom?
How does someone with only one phone switch? I am deep in the apple ecosystem. So i think about my phone… My cloud storage, my 217 passwords saved on iPhone, my apple news subscription, my Apple Arcade, Apple Music, and seamless transitions from iPhone to ipad to laptop with home pods. HOW can i replace all these things to use on a samsung flip? I’ve come to the realization that I really want the flip. But, I truly feel stuck in the apple walled garden.
You can use 2 mobiles, iphone and android at the same time. PS: i use both iphone 11 and galaxy S10+
I use two phones as well, so I can get an Android and an iPhone. Both have pross and cons but TBH having both is the perfect solution!
Is there a way to switch your text, photos and data from iPhone to the galaxy flip?
Can you use google pay with the fingerprint authenticator when the phone is in the closed position?
Samsung Pay only in the closed position
enjoy your screen cracking along the crease and the overheating
@@darthkai8242 i had a zflip 3 for a little over 7 months and during that timeframe it cracked and formed a crease right along the fold. no other damage to the phone since i took perfect care of it; fast forward a few months later i’m attempting to switch phones because of this crack and crease not due to my poor caretaking and i’m told that my 600 dollar trade in value that the phone would have is no longer available due to this crease. 600 dollars down the drain due to a manufacturing defect.
and as for the overheating, my zflip 3 would continuously overheat during videocalls and shut off apps or even the entire phone at random times. the only way to mediate the issue was to turn off motion smoothness disabling the 120hz refresh rate and closing all background apps. ontop of that, utilizing the picture in picture feature would cause the phone to overheat even quicker. it’s an unfinished product and i will never recommend such a failure to any of my peers because of the mediocre issues.
I wanna know where to get that shirt from... I could probably google it, but this exact design.
hey there! I'm going to need to buy a new smartphone soon. Would you recommend me Galaxy S22 Ultra that is coming with RTX, and a powerful chipset made with AMD, or Iphone 14 pro max?
Is the main screen still soft feeling like the original flip?
Can you please tell about the wallpaper or share it
Hmm I was gonna talk smack on the crease but I have a fold 3 that also has the crease and I've gotten used to it. I honestly wish the fold series had the same width as the flip series phones. The front display is just too narrow for practical usage.
The only thing that kills it for me is the battery life, other than that it's a pretty cool take on the "flip" niche. Makes way more sense than a phone that opens to reveal another phone. I love Apple but their decisions sometimes are mystifying - they clearly have in-button TouchID from the iPad Air and Mini...why not bring that to the iPhone? They've moved to USB-C on every device at this point except for the iPhone...why?
because they know iphone started it and they have some type of leverage to gain more money
I keep seeing videos about the screen creasing idk if I should buy it or not
