I have this phone and I love it! I don’t really notice the crease. The phone isn’t perfect, but it’s definitely a good phone and a huge step forward in technology.
Shit is garbage , I had the original flip and I got absolutley tired of flipping the damn thing every time I wanna use the phone, plus the small square is weird in the pocket
@@TECHNIKMM the battery last for the whole day and I charge it once a day with 5.5hrs sot and 17-24hrs including standby time. The highest sot I clocked was close to 7hrs but that's far and few in between. I use bixby routine to put my phone on power saving mode if it's unused and put unused apps in deep sleep.
I love the idea of being able to turn a smartphone into something smaller when not in use. But this is just the beginning. In 20 years, we'll look back at this video and laugh... hard!
Had mine for 3 days ,love it there's a app that let's you add all your phone widgets to the outer screen. Battery lasts me all day easily, but I'm not what they call a heavy user.
I've been wanting this phone and allow people keep complaining about the battery but considering I use my phone on average around 3 to 4 maybe 5 hours at most a day is really great for me I just wanna wait it out a bit to see if I can get the one samsunge has said to be releasing with custom colors
Having grown up using flip phones, touch screen flip phones are such a cool idea to me. Modern and elegant yet nostalgic at the same time! There’s just something satisfying about snapping that phone shut, especially if you’re feeling sassy. 😌😂 I liked your point about how it keeps you from getting sucked into your phone every time you look at it. So many times I’ve gone to check the time and ended up scrolling for 45 minutes lol.
Right? The nostalgia factor just might sell me on this. My first phone was a Samsung A930, an old school flip with a music player built into the cover. The fact that the Z Flip has a music player widget for the cover screen sends me WAY back lol
I bought my phone since it came out, so I've been using it for quite some time now, as a girl I really love the fold because it never slips from my pockets as my previous phones would, and I love that it protects my screen from external damage and falls, the only reason I've bought different phones is because they fall from my pockets and screen breaks so in this phone are my two main solutions from my previous problems over the past years, I love supporting new inventions like these that are actually worth it, this will definitely save me a lot of money. Won't have to carry a bag unless necessary and will keep me from buying many phones. Ps. At this point I don't even notice the dent and also I don't have to stand my phone on random stuff when I go hands free.
I also love how futuristic it makes me feel, everyone else has their normal phones and then there's mine that is a smart flip, such an eye catcher always fine people glancing at my phone or have people asking me about my phone in a amaze manner.
just finished decorating mine and omg it looks so futuristic and aesthetic. I love tis sm (brought a purple one) it's really portable and fits in my jeans which is like wow, as a girl.
I'm a girl with an iPhone 13 mini (previously I had an iPhone 6S) and it's small enough for the pockets too. I got that one because I hate big phones anyway.
how is the camera? Especially the front? I'm starting to get interested about this phone, it can be accessorized to be so cute but i'm a selfie girl and i have to have a good front camera XD.
I have this phone currently, and I always wonder why people dont like that they can sometimes see and feel the crease... But I love the crease! It's one of the reasons why I'm in love with this phone and when my finger goes over the crease I like the feeling, its so different its perfect :0
On the topic of the having to flip to use it (if you don't just keep it open all the time) I prefer it because now there is a physical action that must be taken to use the phone and after checking the small screen you can ask, is this notification *really* worth taking the effort to open my phone? No? Cool, back to what I was doing.
I've been with the phone for 2 weeks and love it. There sure is a downside with the battery, but nothing you can't overcome or get used to if you've owned an iPhone
@@nosanajiminnolife6125 the camera is amazing!! before i got mine i went to best buy and held it in my hands for the first time, you should check it out in an irl store !
@@akshara7063 six months with it and love it! Have dropped it, soaked it and it's as good as new. Just make sure to fit an original case. Everything else is nothig but drama
couldn’t you realistically leave it un folded when its not in your pocket and only fold it when you leave to go somewhere? That would probably save the screen over long term.
@@PilotMan.04 Doesn’t defeat its purpose as the smaller size is to take up less space in your pocket, thats the main benefit of this phone. leaving it open at home would cause less stress on the fold of the screen, which has proven to be a problem with most folding phones. Something can only fold so many times before it breaks. Doing this could help maintain the screens health for a longer time. At home phones are usually out of pockets anyway.
I can't wait to buy this lovely phone, probably next year. It's good to know what will change from my actual phone (I have the iPhone 12 pro max) but it won't change my mind, Btw.. it's always so funny to me to hear EVERY youtubers say that there's a crease, you see and feel it. Yeah... that's the whole point of the phone ??? If you want to have a foldable phone without the crease, it's... impossible. It'll maybe be possible in 10 years idk but right now it isn't the case, stop pointing that out, it's so useless to me 😭 you don't need to be a genius to know that ! Otherwise, your review was pretty useful and I heard some people say that you can ameliorate the battery of the phone by changing some settings (for example activating the dark mode and put your screen speed to 60hz).
Yeah is that what i found, and a few youtubers said that they are used to the crease, i want really this phone because i love the designe and all. so i hope that i will get it soon inshallah and every person have his opinion he wanted to tell us what he got when he used the phone and i hope that i dindn't bless you whit this comment 💓
I want this phone too but I really don’t know much about Samsung because my family in my house all have apple and me so idk but I really want this phone
I've been experimenting with this phone since I've got it and I do agree with most your comments. The most concerning part is that the cover is very slippery. I'm awaiting a silicone cover for it. Yes you can see and feel the glass crease but after awhile you'll get used to it. I like that it folds for easy placement in pockets. The outer cover is okay for short and simple messages and reminders. I will keep using my GN20Ultra mostly for now. To save battery you can have the option of blanking the outer lid of information and will turn on when double tapped. Decreasing the refresh rate of the screen and battery saver mode will increase battery life. Thanks for the insightful review.
I was always drawn to getting this phone since women's pockets are so damn small. I currently have the Samsung Galaxy Note ultra 20 and find it extremely bulky in the front pocket and is constantly falling out from the back pocket when I sit down and also sticking out like a sore thumb. I think this is just perfect!
@@tish4721 ngl I was going to buy it but since I use my phone a lot I just upgraded from my ipad to tab s7....I guess I got too used to the note 20 ultra display as well...I went to see the flip in real life and got a little bit disappointed its basically the s21 that flips....for me I think I will wait for the next gen...I mean I got my phone December last year lol
@@tamimaislam1591 i caved.. I ended up buying it lol 😆 yes the first few days had terrible battery as it was working hard to transfer everything over from my old phone and learn my usage but now I can get the same amount of battery life as my note20 ultra
That’s what I have beeb looking for about this phone! Thanks a lot for this genuine review. Everyone was just taking about the good stuff! I wanted to see what cost they come with. I can definitely be alright with those quirks!
I would take 2 crease for the fold function. LOL. It doesn't bother me at all, I don't even notice it. If there's dust on the screen I just wipe it with my hands or cloths. I do that with my slab phone anyway. BUT I think any review or opinion from another person is useless for this phone. You need to have it for a few days to decide. Regarding the battery I play Gatcha heavy grinding phone games. I mean it 5 hours straight and my flip3 doesn't get overheat and my battery is fine too. So I still don't understand what is wrong with the battery. Yes the battery is on the smaller side but it last well enough unless you plan to 10hr heavy gaming on it with max screen brightness. But totally good even for my heavy gaming use 🤷♀️. I do leave my game on max settings. I use this phone for gaming purpose only since I'm working from home and don't go anywhere during this whole lockdown pandemic. So... Hmmmm. I had this phone since day of release. 👀 So I can conclude that you need to have this phone and use it to really decide if it's for you or not.
idk so far, i've been really liking this phone and how it looks. the cover screen thing...that's kinda the case for iphones too. you can't really do certain stuff without unlocking the phone first. i'm thinking about getting this the minute i can afford to or there is a sale for it
I really appreciate your perspectives on this. While this phone does look really cool, it has a pretty high price tag. Your review really helped me reconsider my decision.
Best phone I've ever had, its a superb bit of tech. And there's LOADS of ways of saving on the battery to make it last easily into the next day. Rule 1 - turn off 5G, otherwise its constantly searching for it - that leaks your battery like shit. Rule 2 - sift through your apps and switch off anything you don't need to always be updating in the background. Most apps will update as soon as you access them, so its pointless having them still running in the background. Also, switching from 120mhz to 60mhz is worth considering. If you're gaming then it'll have an impact on the screen refresh rate, but if you're like me just doing general scrolling and reading then the difference is negligible, but will help your battery out a lot. Also - Dark Mode on Twitter and FB is your friend. I've done some heavy usage and just those 3 things make ALL the difference. But if you just leave your Flip3 to factory settings then yeah, your battery is gonna be creamed by 4pm.
If I ever buy this, I would probably use it more as an outside phone, since it fits pockets easier. Just for texting emails and the like. High perf stuff like gaming, and surfing would still be on my main phone.
Dust and lint? Sand? This is clearly a much exaggerated statement. I've had my Flip for almost a month. Ive had no problem with dust and foreign crap in or no the screen. The screen is also easy cleaned and doesn't tend to get finger prints. Put on a case and it greatly reduces space between the covers when tbe phone is folded. The battery life is not great but am not a constant power user. I wake up the phone by 7 and plug it in to charge at 8:30 to 9:30PM
I've had the original z flip for 8 months .. gets way less dust and shit on the screen than a normal phone that is always open and also in your pocket. Battery last me for days
Had this phone for couple days...love it so far..not going back to the regular phones..it's small ,light weight..who cares about the crease..if it's a problem for you don't buy it..otherwise don't buy it..not an heavy user..otherwise it's a good phone..
I think that's the perfect phone for me I work on construction and sometimes it's very hard to have a big candy bar phone in your pocket while you are claiming a ladder fits perfect in the pocket
I absolutely love this phone, my battery doesn't go like my Motorola Z Flip. That phone takes so long to charge and the battery goes so fast. I love my Flip 3. Couldn't wait to get my hands on it. I can use it the whole day without charging mine till the end of the day and I am always on my phone doing everything from streaming to phone calls.Also you had mentioned that opening your phone will get old but for me I never thought about it and it's never been an issue. Actually my issue is that I don't use the front of the phone like I should.
I have this phone an I love it. I read all the negative reviews, before buying it, but none were a game changer for me. I hardly notice the center line and it folds, so what do you expect? It has a lot of positive features, which weren't mentioned here.
@@Nur-lz1tl I love that it folds. As others have said, it reminds me of the old flip phones,which I always liked. This phone is actually better than the old flip phones. In the fact that it opens, to have a full screen, modern day smartphone. I also love, that many features can be used, without having to open the phone .
@@jen24smileable Although i have tried it out in a samsung store, i couldn't help but realize how thin and light it was. It reminded me of my old samsung S8 (i have an iphone now) and my S8 would easily heat up. is it the same with the Z flip ?
I love my Samsung Galaxy Z flip 3 5G pink edition! The quality of the sound is so perfect and the camera is just good. But the disadvantage of this phone is the battery. Even i put it on an airplane mode but still got easily drain. Overall i love the phone!
It's interesting to see the negative points about this phone, which means it's not so perfect as Samsung make out. I think it looks so fragile aswell. I'd be scared of dropping it. And for how much it is, you'd thought the battery life would be better. I'm still rocking the s9 in 2021. Yes it's not software updated to the latest one and the battery life isn't great, but a battery replacement can fix that. It still functions well. And I like it still has the sd card slot and headphone jack on it, where as the newer s series and the flip doesn't. I'm not looking to upgrade any time soon. I love my s9.
This phone isn't perfect. I'm replying from the z flip 3 xD I had to replace my phone and had to wait 4 months to get it. But honestly it is a great phone. He didn't talk about the Upsides of the phone such as flex mode or the fact you can change settings to better the battery. He also didn't mention the quality the phone brings. Its a really good phone. The issues are it is sensitive and you need to be careful with it and a small battery. Other than that your looking at a powerful foldable phone. You can literally watch videos with the phone half way closed on the top screen while eating and stuff. I do this at work everyday. I keep the phone half closed and the videos only pop up on the top portion. He left alot of benefits out
@@stitches36 why spend more money for the Z Flip over the s20, s21, and new s22 coming out? The specs on the Z flip aren't as good, but it's far more expensive. You're literally only paying extra money for it to fold in half, does your current phone not fit in your pocket? Is it the nostalgia of flipping it open? The flip phone has a crease, the "glass" composite scratches far more easy, and even though it folds in half it also doubles in thickness. Not trying to argue or be rude lol, I'm just generally curious why ppl are buying this phone. Seems like the same kind of logic people use when buying iPhone, doing it because "it's the thing to do".
@@Jesus_616_Christ for me I bought this phone cause it has what I want. Plus it does fold. And the phone prior I had was the note 20. Still have it and it does fit better in my pocket lol. For me I would rather have a phone that gets smaller to be able to store it in different ways. For example I had to rather have my note 20 sit in my passenger seat or in a cup holder while I had it plugged into my car for music. With this phone I can store it in the small section by the aux cord. For me it's based on the things I use my phone for. I'm not constantly on it and it isn't the only phone I use. I have several phones. I just like what it offers
0:05 Decent phone and decent specs? It has the top of the line SOC inside it. Top end, not decent, decent would be a mid range phone. 1:01 The reason why its not completely flat is because if something solid gets inside when you close it, will damage the display This is why they made it this way. Where a gap would release the object to have play and eventually come out the sides. 1:30 Yes the crease is annoying and I agree, but the company had no choice. 2:15 The cover screen is not useful? Did you try the SamSprung app, this turns the outside screen to a very useful full running app on the cover screen, watch movies, play games all full controls. 3:28 I agree not the best battery life, but with some settings you can get about 5-6 hours of SOT.
I got it 2 days ago and I love it. I like the flip aspect a lot. I'm not someone who does everything on my phone and I'm not attached to it, so it's perfectly fine for me. I don't take many photo's, so the camera is fine. The crease is definitely something to get used to. I'm getting there for that!
so 6 months in and I have to send mine back because the "protection screen" has split😮.. Samsung have been awful at accepting this as a flaw saying user issue😮 wtf what else are you supposed to do with a phone.. 12.50 a time to get the screen protector changed. they don't show this on ANY OF THEIR ADVERTS . they only say the "screen " has a 20000 fold life span nothing about the screen protector which they tell you NOT TO REMOVE when you buy it.. upset and angry but live the phone so gonna stick with the 12.50 replacement protector
Voda refused to cover under warranty due to dents on LCD screen so have said user misuse. How can there be dents on the LCD screen but nothing on the screen protector?? Currently in email war with them
As someone who wants to use my phone less, your last point is perfect. Less battery and less usage is perfect. I use my phone way too much anyhow, so this is perfect.
tbh once they "perfect" this type of smartphone it will just be another OPTION. I like it when we have options. I just hope the companies stop being so greedy.
For me notifications is no issue. I ignore alot of them xD You didn't even talk about flex mode. Where you can sit at the table and watch UA-cam and shit while it's half folded. FLEX MODE!!!
Over priced...!!! Low Battery Capacity, 12MP Camera... and $999 ??? Who would do that 🤔🤔🤔 I am sure Apple is going to bring better than this wait for iPhone14 !!
Switching from Samsung Galaxy S20 5G to this phone so far I still have s20 and using it waiting for my phone case to arrive. This z flip is super slippery and fell out of my hands the first I used it lol. I can tell using it the little bit I have the crease is noticeable but not super bad. The phone charges super slow compared to my s20 must no be equipped with super fast charging.
@@jerry7253 I feel like I'm going to break this phone. It very strong with case helps. Maybe it just adjusting to the new/old format factor of flip smartphones
Don't buy it. You'll regret it soon. I had it for 9 months. I'm not even a heavy phone user. The screen cracked 3 months after buying it. Then few months later the screen wouldn't turn on after unfolding, then it was getting reset by itself, the battery is trash even when you put the only 85% charge option.
I love it because it folds. I wont compare it with - say - Samsung S21 or alike. The battery is not as terrible as people rumor, one must spend some time to set it properly. Because it flips, it means that is not for people who are glued to the phone screen. An I am afraid it will never target this type of costumers. The cover screen is sufficiently large to do its job. Maybe more widgets would be a plus here. But making it larger than it is would ruin the idea of a flip phone. We want a foldable phone, not a phone with one internal screen and one external screen. 🙂 I would like to see other functions that can suit better the flip than the bar-phones, not to attempt to replicate the bar phones way of use.
Up until this phone came out I used a Nokia and a ipod. Once I got all my data off the ipod and Nokia on the Flip 3 it's like I have the best of both worlds! It has more battery life than the ipod but less than the Nokia. It runs faster than the ipod. It has more storage than both of the other two. It takes up less room than the other two. It has much better display quality. I have access to HBO and Netflix on it which I couldn't do before (Ipod couldn't run it without lagging). The only thing it doesn't do better is durability because I've had the Nokia for 7 years and the ipod for 5 years. I'm not sure this phone will last that long but when it quits out I'll either get a new one or go back to the other two
It's a pretty shit phone for 1000 DOLLARS. Idk why people think having a foldable plastic display makes it ok 😅 Maybe in a couple of years, it will be cheaper and actually worth it.
Big, big help. Thanks. If one uses a smart watch, the front mini screen appears totally unnecessary/useless even (?). But, your points about battery life, and the deliberately having to open/close, i.e., access, are well worth considering. While I'd like a smaller format phone this is not the one. Thanks again.
Thanks for doing this quick little review. I feel better about buying this phone now. I'm an old grump who HATES that phones get bigger and bigger. I've held onto my iPhone SE for as long as possible because I hate phones bigger than 5". But my little SE is no longer functioning and so I opted for the Palm. I could live with the atrocious battery life the Palm has, but there are so many other issues with it and it is clear the Palm is not meant to be primary phone. This Z Flip seems to be my last option out there. I hope that by buying the phone it will help send a message that there are still those of us who just want a phone that fits in your damn pocket.
I would recommend you do your homework. There's plenty of phones that are not super big and very capable.this phone is just a trend no more no less.have you ever see how somethings brake from too much folding and unfolding??.think about it.
@@pancho1071 Bold of you to assume I didn't spend hours upon hours of my life trying to find a phone that is smaller than 5". There isn't "plenty". In fact there has only been TWO that I can find that are current. The last SE iphone that was smaller than 5" is just no longer supported which is what forced me to look elsewhere. As I stated I got the Palm which is meant to be a secondary phone and doesn't really work as a stand alone phone. The other option? This Z Flip as I said. I've had it for over a month now and no issue. So unless you want to list the "PLENTY" of options for smart phones that are smaller than 5" (and I mean the whole thing. Not the screen size) that I apparently missed in my hours of searching, then take your condescending comments elsewhere.
I’ve had my flip for about a month now and will say I’ve had the same complaints but i knew going into it that it would be a bit of a learning curve but being able to prop the phone up is Great for zoom calls lol
Hardly a situation to be confused about. The practicality of a folding device more than outweighs the slight inconvenience of an indent. If an absolutely flat display is required, use a big slab phone or tablet.
Absolutely love this form factor! But got myself the S22+, to last me for say, the next 4 years, until they have ironed out all the glitches, battery life, camera, dust issues etc.
Yeah, I have a s21+ actually but I am still hesitating to upgrade to a z flip after those 4 years. Dont get me wrong, I love how this phone works. But at the end of the day, my battery of my s21 + is about 20 - 30% battery life and probably the z flip will die out on me and another thing is that I really care about the cameras as well... Unless they fix camera and especially the battery, I might continue with the s series.
I believe it's a "style" category phone and not "power" category phone. Come on, you can't expect a pretty and gentle young lady in her Cinderella gown to operate heavy lifting crane! This phone is gentle. If you need something to play fetch with your dog, you better get a Nokia 3310.
Had mine for a month, it is a great phone, the battery is fine for me as I’m a very light user but turning the brightness down reduces the battery usage by quite a lot. I like that I can have two screens at once at the top and bottom, also you don’t need to flip it to take a selfie you just click the buttons on the side twice and the camera opens. I am really happy with mine.
No one has your boring life style, let others try it. I have this phone, and battery lasts me mostly all day, and i like this phone, the crease took me little to get use to,but overall, very awesome phone.
Great review, different, it seems all other reviewers are paid or something because they only say great things, the only issue they say is the battery but they minimize it. It´s great to know all the cons, not just the pros. I was undecided because soon I need to change my phone and with all the reviews wathced was undecided, but with this video I definetely will go with a S21 plus, and wait a couple of years to see how this flip phones evolve
Nope...you are NOT at all negative on this product but are actually highlighting the common man's nuances and inhibitions that other reviewers/youtubers do not say it that often. I have the Z flip 2 (2020 model) with the 1 inch by 1 inch display and i know how cool this phone is and makes heads turn but on the flip side (pun intended) i hv had 2 vertical lines of LED that needs a screen replacement in under the warranty periodand so the Samsung claim of +200,000 open+close action is somewhat false. But i am still drawn to the newest Flip 3, lol just for that flip idea and having something unique in my hands that is unCommon universally. And yes, the Small Battery and Pocket gunk problem is also v.v.v.annoying still... the Crease NOT so much though. Its quite liveable. Loved your blunt and honest review... Cheers and e-peace...
People's problems with the folding screen and the crease is unwarranted. You're getting a foldable screen. That's amazing! And the byproduct of it is the crease, get over it I'm sick and tired of people moaning about the crease on the phone on any foldable phone.A few years ago you wouldn't have even believed that it was possible to have a folding screen so to have one with a little crease in it is not really an issue is it?
omg I’m never gonna forget this, things like when you said “the phone doesn’t fold flat” is never going to be unseen by me now omg why help it’s okay still gonna save
What I’m doing is buying this phone (if a 4th comes out before that I might get the 4th) and a iPhone use them both for ab a month and send back which one I don’t like
I've had mine almost 8 month's. It fits in my front pockets, back pockets (I wear tight jeans). I've put it in my bra, in emergencies. No dust anywhere. I need a new screen protector. The battery has drained at times, faster. It only charges up to 85%. I use it a lot. I like it.
I just got mine! The battery really irks me especially when my previous phone's battery was a beast. I just keep it open when I'm at home and only flip it close when going out. Im scared I'll damage the screen and the repairs would be expensive af.
I currently have an s10e which I've loved, though I'm so used to the size I really don't want any phone bigger. This size, about 5.75, is perfect, and I have small hands. I don't want a giant phone. Plus, I'm already used to the fast draining, even though I use my phone constantly. The Samsung s10e has a 3,100 battery, so I'm used to that and usually have it plugged in.
Well calling a flip phone a novelty its a poor choice of words. Its old desing updated for today. Plus flip phoned have never gone out of style in Asia, specially Japan.
I feel like this is just a toe dip into new waters in terms of phones done by Google, and I want to congratulate them for that! It's only a matter of time til we advance forward in this type of technology...
I have this phone and I love it! I don’t really notice the crease. The phone isn’t perfect, but it’s definitely a good phone and a huge step forward in technology.
Absolutely
How do you manage with battery? How much on screen time is realistic with 120hz?
Shit is garbage , I had the original flip and I got absolutley tired of flipping the damn thing every time I wanna use the phone, plus the small square is weird in the pocket

Having grown up using flip phones, touch screen flip phones are such a cool idea to me. Modern and elegant yet nostalgic at the same time!

So many times I’ve gone to check the time and ended up scrolling for 45 minutes lol.
Right? The nostalgia factor just might sell me on this. My first phone was a Samsung A930, an old school flip with a music player built into the cover. The fact that the Z Flip has a music player widget for the cover screen sends me WAY back lol

I also love how futuristic it makes me feel, everyone else has their normal phones and then there's mine that is a smart flip, such an eye catcher always fine people glancing at my phone or have people asking me about my phone in a amaze manner.
yes!!! not being able to fit your phone into pants is annoying
just finished decorating mine and omg it looks so futuristic and aesthetic. I love tis sm (brought a purple one) it's really portable and fits in my jeans which is like wow, as a girl.
I'm a girl with an iPhone 13 mini (previously I had an iPhone 6S) and it's small enough for the pockets too. I got that one because I hate big phones anyway.
how is the camera? Especially the front? I'm starting to get interested about this phone, it can be accessorized to be so cute but i'm a selfie girl and i have to have a good front camera XD.
I have this phone currently, and I always wonder why people dont like that they can sometimes see and feel the crease...
But I love the crease! It's one of the reasons why I'm in love with this phone and when my finger goes over the crease I like the feeling, its so different its perfect :0
On the topic of the having to flip to use it (if you don't just keep it open all the time) I prefer it because now there is a physical action that must be taken to use the phone and after checking the small screen you can ask, is this notification *really* worth taking the effort to open my phone? No? Cool, back to what I was doing.
I've been with the phone for 2 weeks and love it. There sure is a downside with the battery, but nothing you can't overcome or get used to if you've owned an iPhone
Can you tell me something about the camera??hows the camera??:(
@@nosanajiminnolife6125 the camera is amazing!! before i got mine i went to best buy and held it in my hands for the first time, you should check it out in an irl store !
Some people are saying it's not good to use flip phone is that true? They say it's easily get destroy
@@akshara7063 six months with it and love it! Have dropped it, soaked it and it's as good as new. Just make sure to fit an original case. Everything else is nothig but drama
@@marfv000 thanks for the feedback. 😊🌸
The phone is fine I've had mine for a month...if you gett easily annoyed like this guy then don't buy this phone...
couldn’t you realistically leave it un folded when its not in your pocket and only fold it when you leave to go somewhere? That would probably save the screen over long term.
I own this phone. I do exactly what you suggested.
Well yes you could do that but the screen is more at risk of damage since it's so delicate
That basically defeats the purpose of the phone. Your better of buying a traditional phone...
@@PilotMan.04 Doesn’t defeat its purpose as the smaller size is to take up less space in your pocket, thats the main benefit of this phone. leaving it open at home would cause less stress on the fold of the screen, which has proven to be a problem with most folding phones. Something can only fold so many times before it breaks. Doing this could help maintain the screens health for a longer time. At home phones are usually out of pockets anyway.
@@TonySkafidas I guess
I can't wait to buy this lovely phone, probably next year. It's good to know what will change from my actual phone (I have the iPhone 12 pro max) but it won't change my mind, Btw.. it's always so funny to me to hear EVERY youtubers say that there's a crease, you see and feel it. Yeah... that's the whole point of the phone ??? If you want to have a foldable phone without the crease, it's... impossible. It'll maybe be possible in 10 years idk but right now it isn't the case, stop pointing that out, it's so useless to me 😭 you don't need to be a genius to know that ! Otherwise, your review was pretty useful and I heard some people say that you can ameliorate the battery of the phone by changing some settings (for example activating the dark mode and put your screen speed to 60hz).
You're going to enjoy using this phone and watch people's head as they turn to take a glance of your phone.
@@quchi7232 especially with the fold 3, people will stare because it's so crazy
Yeah is that what i found, and a few youtubers said that they are used to the crease, i want really this phone because i love the designe and all. so i hope that i will get it soon inshallah and every person have his opinion he wanted to tell us what he got when he used the phone and i hope that i dindn't bless you whit this comment 💓
I want this phone too but I really don’t know much about Samsung because my family in my house all have apple and me so idk but I really want this phone
As a girl, bitch imagine dramatically answering and hanging up the phone smh 😭💅😂
I think it's a good tech but I'm looking forward more on its next generation and expecting much more improvement
Good review. I’ve watched a ton and all seem to show it completely clean. Yours shows it with normal wear so thanks for that!
Totally agreed with your comments - great phone for light user but power users should look elsewhere.
I mean...there aren't really many options in the way of power though
“I generally love this stupid foldy thing” That should be Samsung’s tagline
Absolutely 😂
I've been experimenting with this phone since I've got it and I do agree with most your comments. The most concerning part is that the cover is very slippery. I'm awaiting a silicone cover for it. Yes you can see and feel the glass crease but after awhile you'll get used to it. I like that it folds for easy placement in pockets. The outer cover is okay for short and simple messages and reminders. I will keep using my GN20Ultra mostly for now. To save battery you can have the option of blanking the outer lid of information and will turn on when double tapped. Decreasing the refresh rate of the screen and battery saver mode will increase battery life. Thanks for the insightful review.
I never got used to the crease. It drove me crazy.
I was always drawn to getting this phone since women's pockets are so damn small. I currently have the Samsung Galaxy Note ultra 20 and find it extremely bulky in the front pocket and is constantly falling out from the back pocket when I sit down and also sticking out like a sore thumb. I think this is just perfect!
Ooh true I should have thought about pocket sizes! Glad it's working for you :)
Omg yes note 20 ultra gang! But Def wait for the next gen flip since the battery is not that good tbh.
@@tamimaislam1591 that's a shame! I was actually already waiting for this one since the flip 2 came out lol
@@tish4721 ngl I was going to buy it but since I use my phone a lot I just upgraded from my ipad to tab s7....I guess I got too used to the note 20 ultra display as well...I went to see the flip in real life and got a little bit disappointed its basically the s21 that flips....for me I think I will wait for the next gen...I mean I got my phone December last year lol
@@tamimaislam1591 i caved.. I ended up buying it lol 😆 yes the first few days had terrible battery as it was working hard to transfer everything over from my old phone and learn my usage but now I can get the same amount of battery life as my note20 ultra
That’s what I have beeb looking for about this phone! Thanks a lot for this genuine review. Everyone was just taking about the good stuff! I wanted to see what cost they come with. I can definitely be alright with those quirks!
I would take 2 crease for the fold function. LOL. It doesn't bother me at all, I don't even notice it. If there's dust on the screen I just wipe it with my hands or cloths. I do that with my slab phone anyway. BUT I think any review or opinion from another person is useless for this phone. You need to have it for a few days to decide. Regarding the battery I play Gatcha heavy grinding phone games. I mean it 5 hours straight and my flip3 doesn't get overheat and my battery is fine too. So I still don't understand what is wrong with the battery. Yes the battery is on the smaller side but it last well enough unless you plan to 10hr heavy gaming on it with max screen brightness. But totally good even for my heavy gaming use 🤷♀️. I do leave my game on max settings. I use this phone for gaming purpose only since I'm working from home and don't go anywhere during this whole lockdown pandemic. So... Hmmmm. I had this phone since day of release. 👀 So I can conclude that you need to have this phone and use it to really decide if it's for you or not.
but do u feel fatigued like do your thumbs hurt from opening the phone so much jejeje
Hopefully while deciding doesn't come apart from all that folding and unfolding.
idk so far, i've been really liking this phone and how it looks. the cover screen thing...that's kinda the case for iphones too. you can't really do certain stuff without unlocking the phone first. i'm thinking about getting this the minute i can afford to or there is a sale for it
I really appreciate your perspectives on this. While this phone does look really cool, it has a pretty high price tag. Your review really helped me reconsider my decision.
Best phone I've ever had, its a superb bit of tech. And there's LOADS of ways of saving on the battery to make it last easily into the next day. Rule 1 - turn off 5G, otherwise its constantly searching for it - that leaks your battery like shit. Rule 2 - sift through your apps and switch off anything you don't need to always be updating in the background. Most apps will update as soon as you access them, so its pointless having them still running in the background.
Also, switching from 120mhz to 60mhz is worth considering. If you're gaming then it'll have an impact on the screen refresh rate, but if you're like me just doing general scrolling and reading then the difference is negligible, but will help your battery out a lot.
Also - Dark Mode on Twitter and FB is your friend.
I've done some heavy usage and just those 3 things make ALL the difference. But if you just leave your Flip3 to factory settings then yeah, your battery is gonna be creamed by 4pm.
Good tips David!
Would you recommend though
@@kdramaholic1735 absolutely. I'll be getting the Flip5 once my contract is up on this one. I love it.
If I ever buy this, I would probably use it more as an outside phone, since it fits pockets easier. Just for texting emails and the like. High perf stuff like gaming, and surfing would still be on my main phone.
Funny you say this because that's exactly what I'm doing now lol.
Dust and lint? Sand? This is clearly a much exaggerated statement. I've had my Flip for almost a month. Ive had no problem with dust and foreign crap in or no the screen. The screen is also easy cleaned and doesn't tend to get finger prints. Put on a case and it greatly reduces space between the covers when tbe phone is folded.
The battery life is not great but am not a constant power user. I wake up the phone by 7 and plug it in to charge at 8:30 to 9:30PM
Maybe I just need to clean my pockets more hey
I've had the original z flip for 8 months .. gets way less dust and shit on the screen than a normal phone that is always open and also in your pocket. Battery last me for days
Great video. I love my flip and Ive had all them phone's 🤣
What about Snapchat camera quality? Is it good or bad ?
Had this phone for couple days...love it so far..not going back to the regular phones..it's small ,light weight..who cares about the crease..if it's a problem for you don't buy it..otherwise don't buy it..not an heavy user..otherwise it's a good phone..
I think that's the perfect phone for me I work on construction and sometimes it's very hard to have a big candy bar phone in your pocket while you are claiming a ladder fits perfect in the pocket
Yeah totally. Do you have a case for it?
Using your phone less is a whole positive for me
I absolutely love this phone, my battery doesn't go like my Motorola Z Flip. That phone takes so long to charge and the battery goes so fast. I love my Flip 3. Couldn't wait to get my hands on it. I can use it the whole day without charging mine till the end of the day and I am always on my phone doing everything from streaming to phone calls.Also you had mentioned that opening your phone will get old but for me I never thought about it and it's never been an issue. Actually my issue is that I don't use the front of the phone like I should.
What's your screen on time you average?
I have this phone an I love it. I read all the negative reviews, before buying it, but none were a game changer for me. I hardly notice the center line and it folds, so what do you expect?
It has a lot of positive features, which weren't mentioned here.
could you give me some positive features? i'm curious to know what your opinion on this phone is
@@Nur-lz1tl I love that it folds. As others have said, it reminds me of the old flip phones,which I always liked. This phone is actually better than the old flip phones. In the fact that it opens, to have a full screen, modern day smartphone. I also love, that many features can be used, without having to open the phone .
@@jen24smileable Hmm that's fair i guess. Thanks!
@@jen24smileable Although i have tried it out in a samsung store, i couldn't help but realize how thin and light it was. It reminded me of my old samsung S8 (i have an iphone now) and my S8 would easily heat up. is it the same with the Z flip ?
@@Nur-lz1tl I can't say that I've noticed it getting hot. It probably gets warm at times, but not hot. I'm totally happy with it.
I love my Samsung Galaxy Z flip 3 5G pink edition!
The quality of the sound is so perfect and the camera is just good.
But the disadvantage of this phone is the battery. Even i put it on an airplane mode but still got easily drain.
Overall i love the phone!
Yeah the sound is surprisingly great on this hey?
It's interesting to see the negative points about this phone, which means it's not so perfect as Samsung make out. I think it looks so fragile aswell. I'd be scared of dropping it. And for how much it is, you'd thought the battery life would be better. I'm still rocking the s9 in 2021. Yes it's not software updated to the latest one and the battery life isn't great, but a battery replacement can fix that. It still functions well. And I like it still has the sd card slot and headphone jack on it, where as the newer s series and the flip doesn't. I'm not looking to upgrade any time soon. I love my s9.
This phone isn't perfect. I'm replying from the z flip 3 xD
I had to replace my phone and had to wait 4 months to get it. But honestly it is a great phone. He didn't talk about the Upsides of the phone such as flex mode or the fact you can change settings to better the battery. He also didn't mention the quality the phone brings. Its a really good phone. The issues are it is sensitive and you need to be careful with it and a small battery. Other than that your looking at a powerful foldable phone. You can literally watch videos with the phone half way closed on the top screen while eating and stuff. I do this at work everyday. I keep the phone half closed and the videos only pop up on the top portion. He left alot of benefits out
@@stitches36 why spend more money for the Z Flip over the s20, s21, and new s22 coming out? The specs on the Z flip aren't as good, but it's far more expensive. You're literally only paying extra money for it to fold in half, does your current phone not fit in your pocket? Is it the nostalgia of flipping it open? The flip phone has a crease, the "glass" composite scratches far more easy, and even though it folds in half it also doubles in thickness. Not trying to argue or be rude lol, I'm just generally curious why ppl are buying this phone. Seems like the same kind of logic people use when buying iPhone, doing it because "it's the thing to do".
@@Jesus_616_Christ for me I bought this phone cause it has what I want. Plus it does fold. And the phone prior I had was the note 20. Still have it and it does fit better in my pocket lol. For me I would rather have a phone that gets smaller to be able to store it in different ways. For example I had to rather have my note 20 sit in my passenger seat or in a cup holder while I had it plugged into my car for music. With this phone I can store it in the small section by the aux cord. For me it's based on the things I use my phone for. I'm not constantly on it and it isn't the only phone I use. I have several phones. I just like what it offers
@@stitches36 I suppose if you have other phones, it sounds like the money=value isn't an issue for you, which in that case, more power to you 👌🏼.
Also still using my S9 just ordered a S21 Fe tho yesterday
0:05 Decent phone and decent specs? It has the top of the line SOC inside it. Top end, not decent, decent would be a mid range phone.
1:01 The reason why its not completely flat is because if something solid gets inside when you close it, will damage the display
This is why they made it this way. Where a gap would release the object to have play and eventually come out the sides.
1:30 Yes the crease is annoying and I agree, but the company had no choice.
2:15 The cover screen is not useful? Did you try the SamSprung app, this turns the outside screen to a very useful full
running app on the cover screen, watch movies, play games all full controls.
3:28 I agree not the best battery life, but with some settings you can get about 5-6 hours of SOT.
I got it 2 days ago and I love it. I like the flip aspect a lot.
I'm not someone who does everything on my phone and I'm not attached to it, so it's perfectly fine for me. I don't take many photo's, so the camera is fine.
The crease is definitely something to get used to. I'm getting there for that!
I have been using this phone for 10 months, and it's the greatest thing ever.
so 6 months in and I have to send mine back because the "protection screen" has split😮.. Samsung have been awful at accepting this as a flaw saying user issue😮 wtf what else are you supposed to do with a phone.. 12.50 a time to get the screen protector changed. they don't show this on ANY OF THEIR ADVERTS . they only say the "screen " has a 20000 fold life span nothing about the screen protector which they tell you NOT TO REMOVE when you buy it.. upset and angry but live the phone so gonna stick with the 12.50 replacement protector
Voda refused to cover under warranty due to dents on LCD screen so have said user misuse. How can there be dents on the LCD screen but nothing on the screen protector?? Currently in email war with them
As someone who wants to use my phone less, your last point is perfect. Less battery and less usage is perfect. I use my phone way too much anyhow, so this is perfect.
tbh once they "perfect" this type of smartphone it will just be another OPTION. I like it when we have options. I just hope the companies stop being so greedy.
For me notifications is no issue. I ignore alot of them xD
You didn't even talk about flex mode. Where you can sit at the table and watch UA-cam and shit while it's half folded. FLEX MODE!!!
Over priced...!!! Low Battery Capacity, 12MP Camera... and $999 ??? Who would do that 🤔🤔🤔 I am sure Apple is going to bring better than this wait for iPhone14 !!
Didn't you guys loose the headphone jack
Switching from Samsung Galaxy S20 5G to this phone so far I still have s20 and using it waiting for my phone case to arrive. This z flip is super slippery and fell out of my hands the first I used it lol. I can tell using it the little bit I have the crease is noticeable but not super bad. The phone charges super slow compared to my s20 must no be equipped with super fast charging.
How is it now with case?
Did ur thoughts change?
@@jerry7253 I feel like I'm going to break this phone. It very strong with case helps. Maybe it just adjusting to the new/old format factor of flip smartphones
Don't buy it. You'll regret it soon. I had it for 9 months. I'm not even a heavy phone user. The screen cracked 3 months after buying it. Then few months later the screen wouldn't turn on after unfolding, then it was getting reset by itself, the battery is trash even when you put the only 85% charge option.
I love it because it folds. I wont compare it with - say - Samsung S21 or alike. The battery is not as terrible as people rumor, one must spend some time to set it properly.
Because it flips, it means that is not for people who are glued to the phone screen. An I am afraid it will never target this type of costumers.
The cover screen is sufficiently large to do its job. Maybe more widgets would be a plus here. But making it larger than it is would ruin the idea of a flip phone. We want a foldable phone, not a phone with one internal screen and one external screen. 🙂
I would like to see other functions that can suit better the flip than the bar-phones, not to attempt to replicate the bar phones way of use.
Up until this phone came out I used a Nokia and a ipod.
Once I got all my data off the ipod and Nokia on the Flip 3 it's like I have the best of both worlds!
It has more battery life than the ipod but less than the Nokia.
It runs faster than the ipod.
It has more storage than both of the other two.
It takes up less room than the other two.
It has much better display quality.
I have access to HBO and Netflix on it which I couldn't do before (Ipod couldn't run it without lagging).
The only thing it doesn't do better is durability because I've had the Nokia for 7 years and the ipod for 5 years. I'm not sure this phone will last that long but when it quits out I'll either get a new one or go back to the other two
Its a Cool Gadget! Beam me Up Scotty! I love it! I don't live on it! I have a peeve with large phones and sitting on them. I love Shirt Pocket.
How can you expect a folding things without crease...
You missed one positive, because our girl pockets are stupidly small it actually fully fits in the pocket (most of the time)
It's a pretty shit phone for 1000 DOLLARS. Idk why people think having a foldable plastic display makes it ok 😅
Maybe in a couple of years, it will be cheaper and actually worth it.
Your opinion is your own opinion but I'm finna tell you it's booboo
Question: If you watch a YT channel and you close the flip, can you still hear the channel? Thanks!
100% one of the main reasons i got it was to use my phone less LOL
its actually been really great for that!
Asus is making worse ROG devices i am watching Z Flip Again
👇 If u agree asus ROG is worse
Thank you! I think I'm gonna wait for the flip 4 cause I love fast charging lol.
"physically harder to open your phone"..... Jesus Christ seriously???
Big, big help. Thanks. If one uses a smart watch, the front mini screen appears totally unnecessary/useless even (?). But, your points about battery life, and the deliberately having to open/close, i.e., access, are well worth considering. While I'd like a smaller format phone this is not the one. Thanks again.
Yeah the smart watch tends to do even more than the front screen. I don't use it much at all!
i love this phone in lavender very beautiful enjoyed your video👍🏽🤗
the main problem is the crease defects of this phone, is a serious problem!
Thanks for doing this quick little review. I feel better about buying this phone now. I'm an old grump who HATES that phones get bigger and bigger. I've held onto my iPhone SE for as long as possible because I hate phones bigger than 5". But my little SE is no longer functioning and so I opted for the Palm. I could live with the atrocious battery life the Palm has, but there are so many other issues with it and it is clear the Palm is not meant to be primary phone. This Z Flip seems to be my last option out there. I hope that by buying the phone it will help send a message that there are still those of us who just want a phone that fits in your damn pocket.
I would recommend you do your homework. There's plenty of phones that are not super big and very capable.this phone is just a trend no more no less.have you ever see how somethings brake from too much folding and unfolding??.think about it.
@@pancho1071 Bold of you to assume I didn't spend hours upon hours of my life trying to find a phone that is smaller than 5". There isn't "plenty". In fact there has only been TWO that I can find that are current. The last SE iphone that was smaller than 5" is just no longer supported which is what forced me to look elsewhere. As I stated I got the Palm which is meant to be a secondary phone and doesn't really work as a stand alone phone. The other option? This Z Flip as I said. I've had it for over a month now and no issue. So unless you want to list the "PLENTY" of options for smart phones that are smaller than 5" (and I mean the whole thing. Not the screen size) that I apparently missed in my hours of searching, then take your condescending comments elsewhere.
I’ve had my flip for about a month now and will say I’ve had the same complaints but i knew going into it that it would be a bit of a learning curve but being able to prop the phone up is Great for zoom calls lol
I like how Fold and Flip phone owners ALL complain about the phone's middle crease indent - don't items that fold leave creases?
I'm so 😕 CONFUSED!!
Yeah of course. I’m just saying it may be deeper than you expect based on the marketing Samsung are putting out.
Hardly a situation to be confused about. The practicality of a folding device more than outweighs the slight inconvenience of an indent. If an absolutely flat display is required, use a big slab phone or tablet.
Literally the whole point of having a folding screen
Lol
And eventually they come apart as anything that folds and unfolds.
I didn't even watch the 3rd reason and i already know: not for me
thanks!
Absolutely love this form factor! But got myself the S22+, to last me for say, the next 4 years, until they have ironed out all the glitches, battery life, camera, dust issues etc.
Yeah, I have a s21+ actually but I am still hesitating to upgrade to a z flip after those 4 years. Dont get me wrong, I love how this phone works. But at the end of the day, my battery of my s21 + is about 20 - 30% battery life and probably the z flip will die out on me and another thing is that I really care about the cameras as well... Unless they fix camera and especially the battery, I might continue with the s series.
1:46 oh wow that one probably a turn off for me. Glad I found your video
I believe it's a "style" category phone and not "power" category phone. Come on, you can't expect a pretty and gentle young lady in her Cinderella gown to operate heavy lifting crane! This phone is gentle. If you need something to play fetch with your dog, you better get a Nokia 3310.
Ha! Love this analogy
Me casually watching this, laying in bed long after I bought the phone! XD
I want it precisely for the foldable quality and for being cute and aesthetic, already ordered the lavender one
It does not fold fully flat so it does not scratch or damage the screen when you shut it hard 🧐😃😁
#5 a good point. Great habit to grow into.
it's not worth the price tag of £995 as its known to drop in price by 50% so its no point buying any phone brand new at rip off prices
True that
Ayo! You've got an Alienware too! #AlienwareGang
I just realised how hard it is to open it to take a photo when you only have 1 hand available. I'm starting to think I should have gotten the fold.
Yeah same! It takes a bit longer to take out and capture photos
Nahhh it's all the wrist
I got the fold 3 and it shits all over the flip.
Lmao having to open your phone becomes annoying 🤣 this dude is such a karen
alienware user, opion disregarded
Whys that?
this should obviosly be taken with a grain of salt, this guy uses an Alienware computer. Yes let me be elitest!
Lol the PC does exactly what I need it to do
Had mine for a month, it is a great phone, the battery is fine for me as I’m a very light user but turning the brightness down reduces the battery usage by quite a lot.
I like that I can have two screens at once at the top and bottom, also you don’t need to flip it to take a selfie you just click the buttons on the side twice and the camera opens.
I am really happy with mine.
No one has your boring life style, let others try it.
I have this phone, and battery lasts me mostly all day, and i like this phone, the crease took me little to get use to,but overall, very awesome phone.
Great review, different, it seems all other reviewers are paid or something because they only say great things, the only issue they say is the battery but they minimize it. It´s great to know all the cons, not just the pros. I was undecided because soon I need to change my phone and with all the reviews wathced was undecided, but with this video I definetely will go with a S21 plus, and wait a couple of years to see how this flip phones evolve
Bought it 4 days before.. Absolutely magical phone! Loved it!
What do your think about the camera is it worth to buy it?
I want that phone but i dont know now
If “nails on a chalkboard” was a phone, this would be it.
🤣
Nope...you are NOT at all negative on this product but are actually highlighting the common man's nuances and inhibitions that other reviewers/youtubers do not say it that often. I have the Z flip 2 (2020 model) with the 1 inch by 1 inch display and i know how cool this phone is and makes heads turn but on the flip side (pun intended) i hv had 2 vertical lines of LED that needs a screen replacement in under the warranty periodand so the Samsung claim of +200,000 open+close action is somewhat false. But i am still drawn to the newest Flip 3, lol just for that flip idea and having something unique in my hands that is unCommon universally.
And yes, the Small Battery and Pocket gunk problem is also v.v.v.annoying still... the Crease NOT so much though. Its quite liveable.
Loved your blunt and honest review...
Cheers and e-peace...
I will buy this phone for the primary purpose of getting noticed by girls. This phone could perhaps open a smooth conversation from them 🤣😂
People's problems with the folding screen and the crease is unwarranted. You're getting a foldable screen. That's amazing! And the byproduct of it is the crease, get over it
I'm sick and tired of people moaning about the crease on the phone on any foldable phone.A few years ago you wouldn't have even believed that it was possible to have a folding screen so to have one with a little crease in it is not really an issue is it?
Ye" but it iphone made one everyone would be in awe" man just buy the phone it's a good phone
Very true
omg I’m never gonna forget this, things like when you said “the phone doesn’t fold flat” is never going to be unseen by me now omg why help it’s okay still gonna save
What I’m doing is buying this phone (if a 4th comes out before that I might get the 4th) and a iPhone use them both for ab a month and send back which one I don’t like
Nice
I have this phone, and I’m loving it! Only issue is the battery, it drains fast. But I still love it. :)
i would hate that phone. I need a long lasting battery phone. Hence, why i got the iphone 13 pro max
If you are complaining then try to make your own phone lets see what you can do with the crease ect.
Wtf dont you know how reviews work
Lol ok I'll give it a crack
I've had mine almost 8 month's. It fits in my front pockets, back pockets (I wear tight jeans).
I've put it in my bra, in emergencies. No dust anywhere.
I need a new screen protector.
The battery has drained at times, faster.
It only charges up to 85%.
I use it a lot.
I like it.
Yes l love it for my purposes l ride a motorbike its small fits in jacket very convenient for me. It does everything l need it to do.
I just got mine! The battery really irks me especially when my previous phone's battery was a beast. I just keep it open when I'm at home and only flip it close when going out. Im scared I'll damage the screen and the repairs would be expensive af.
The negatives are what is expected. I'm looking at one of these for my 14 Yr old son great pocket size. He loves his iPhone SE as its small
I currently have an s10e which I've loved, though I'm so used to the size I really don't want any phone bigger. This size, about 5.75, is perfect, and I have small hands. I don't want a giant phone. Plus, I'm already used to the fast draining, even though I use my phone constantly. The Samsung s10e has a 3,100 battery, so I'm used to that and usually have it plugged in.
I love mine. The Crease doesn't bother me at all. Short battery life... Yup. But other than that, the form factor makes up for it.
Delicious phone.
Hi I have one , it's not bad but not great. Battery life is meh. Call quality is good, cameras are decent enough. Cool video.
I keep my phone always open and I love it that way.
Why not just get a standard candybar phone then?
I really really really want this phone for Christmas,this is pretty much the only thing I want for Christmas it looks cool and I think I would love it
Well calling a flip phone a novelty its a poor choice of words. Its old desing updated for today. Plus flip phoned have never gone out of style in Asia, specially Japan.
I feel like this is just a toe dip into new waters in terms of phones done by Google, and I want to congratulate them for that! It's only a matter of time til we advance forward in this type of technology...
