Hey Chaps! Samsung are offering DOUBLE storage if you pre-order: Flip - howl.me/cke1BPnHTG7 | Fold - howl.me/cke1BPmYyQM
I've had the flip 3 & flip 4 & looking forward to getting my Flip 5 in a couple of weeks. As an average mobile phone user I find the charging speed is just fine & seriously, the picture quality for me anyway is perfect. I dont spend hours comparing the pictures with other phones for different shades of colours etc. The flip 5 has recieved the upgrades necessary to now make it the perfect compact phone for me..Well done Samsung.👍
Flips definitely have their fans - and I get it. Flip5 should be a decent upgrade for that big cover screen.
The videos are so professional. Really good to watch.
Z Flip 5 is so stylish, I believe lots of people will buy it more than Z Fold 5😍 😎 but the only weakness is poor battery 🔋😢 why doesn't Samsung bring 5000 mAh for these devices
Because no space
who the fok said it has poor battery? 8 gen 2 already efficient,and where they gonna fit 5000 mah in you a rse?
The battery is far from poor the battery life is good it's not S23 Ultra good but it's good
Where are they going to put those batteries? 😂 they don't have space 🤷♂️
I can see the various reasons for why your channel is bigger than others. One of which is you actually review the products more than just showcase or 'sell' them. Further, you actually compared the Fold 5 against the Honor Magic V2. Many channels just do standalone reviews, which are not that useful for consumers.
Looking forward to your Samsung G9 OLED review, hopefully with a comparison with the LG 45" UltraGear OLED!
my flip4 dies within 4 hrs tops usually 3.5 hrs, i want the flip5 but the battery barely being improved is the major issue
I ordered the Z Fold 5, and I got it today, I'm so excited, and I love it already. I personally like the narrow screen. It makes one-handed use a lot easier. The big screen is amazing, too. I don't notice the crease when using it.
The decision is tough this year. I've used a Fold 2 as my daily for almost 3 years, and I absolutely love it. The jump to the Fold 5 would be fantastic, especially with that slim S-Pen. But the Flip 5 looks so fun to use with that big cover screen and wider main screen. Even though I'm used to the narrow front screen of the Fold 2, I do miss the more "normal" aspect ratios.
Also hard to ignore that they haven't upgrade the cameras on either since the 3.
How has that fold 2 held up !
@qlovox this thing was a beast. Had some issues, like sand getting inside the hinge, but that was my fault. I've constantly dealt with air bubbles under the pre-installed screen protector for over a year, but that wasn't a huge issue to the point where I didn't want another Fold. It was a great experience overall and I'm looking forward to a more refined experience.
Going from fold 4 to flip 5 made me miss my fold
i am thinking of getting the flip 5 too but im afraid that it will not be durable enough . can you tell me about your experience with flip 2 ? did you find it durable ? did the oled screen burned after continuous use ? do opening and closing the phone a lot damages the screen inside ?
Get flip 5 and s9 plus tablet together which will still be few dollars cheaper than getting fold 5 alone
I am going from the flip 3 to fold 5 so massive difference for me. No point buying it every year just wait for a couple of releases then u see a benefit
I like the quality of your videos, everything moves smoothly and appetising to the eye.
Thank you!
I agree with the video , but the phone is another piece of rubbish 😭
HeyMr Chap. I'm due a new phone and really thinking about the V2 , waiting for it to release in the UK. Currently using an S20 ultra. You think honors magic Os would be as nice to use and safe compared to one UI? Thanks for all your videos !
Me too, fingers crossed,but shouldn't you wait until it is coming before checking the detail. As someone who used to use Samsung's TouchWiz which was HATED. It was still ultimately Android at the end of the day. It won't be so bad it would put me off and especially when you've always got the Launcher option. I'd say it was Safe. Chinese yes but nothing to do with Huawei. Although my brother has a Huawei laptop recommended by me so I think they're fine too.
Yeah the V2 is the design to beat for a full size foldable. Don't think there's a firm UK or Europe release date as yet but maybe we'll know more after IFA in early Sept.
Flip 5 is simply cute, preordered it. In my country they give you Ear Buds 2 for free too so tbh maybe it's bit on more expensive side but with all promos it was worth it.
What phone do you owner now?
I want the size and ratios of the Honor Magic much more than the ZFlip5 as well.
I just preorded the fold 5 yesterday. Ive had the galaxy phones for years but ive really wanted the fold and with trading in my s21 ultra they are giving me $800 off so its more reasonable to buy than with the almost $2k price tag.
Was it worth it?
Which one did you go for I have the s23 ultra
Once you have a flip style phone, it's very hard to go back to a slab phone. I was without my Flip 3 for a couple of days just recently and had to use a slab phone temporarily. I couldn't wait to switch back as soon as I could... Tossing up whether I should upgrade even though I have no issues with my current phone now hehe
Yeah - when you forget and fold your iPhone and get that crunching noise...
@@Thetechchap Funny I still remember the old Nokia flip phones ha-ha with Snake!!
@@Thetechchap Or even the Nokia matrix phone we used to call it the hug your face phone! those were the days haha!
Would you mind sharing why you prefer a flip? I'm on the fence on getting one and having a difficult time seeing why people like them.
@@dashogunz 1. It's really quite comfortable in my pockets due to the smaller footprint. 2. My screen is always protected when my phone is closed and sitting in my bag or pocket. 3. I enjoy proping it up and reading or video calling while my hands are busy doing other things like eating or typing. 4. It just feels great to fidget with closing and opening the phone when I need to use it. 5. It's a ;pt strpnger than you think. I've dropped and beat my phone up, and have never had a cracked screen or glass panel// I do have to mention though if you love scrolling and consuming media with your phone, a flip isn't for you. The battery really isn't great. The camera's aren't the best in class either. But for my personal needs and expectations (how I use my phone daily), it's absolutely perfect.
Can you make a battery drain test same with the tab s9 ultra please 🙏
Awesome Phones 😊
No DEX again in the Flips seems like a huge mistake by Samsung. 😢 After almost a year with my F4 think it was the only real feature i was hoping for.
Sometimes it feels like Samsung are drip feeding new ideas so they have something for next year
ive never once opened or used dex, i have a laptop
Not really impressed with their upgrades this year but I have a Z flip 4 and it's hard to say no when I only have to pay $50 after trade in, plus an extra $50 credit that I spent for the Smart UX case 😬
Understandable but hey you could pay $50 and have a much bigger cover screen and a thinner phone. If it was full price going from the 4, I'd say no but I think it's worth it.
I have a flip 3 and wanted to get the fold 5 but I think I'll wind up getting the flip 5 and hold out for the fold 6 or 7
I feel like the cover screen upgrade alone is worth $50 trade-in/bill credit? I would 1,000% do it! Getting mine Next week ♡
Pre ordered a flip 5 for $62 including the first month of Samsung care here in the US
Thank you for telling us about the crease.
Crease is a little less noticeable on Fold 5 vs Fold 4 (didn't mention that)
Once the fold gets a wider front screen, better cameras and battery ill get it.
Why avoid
So, once it gets these better features...then you'll avoid it?
@@elementzero7083 my bad worded it wrong 😂😂
The Samsung Galaxy flip 5 and 6 awesome to buy in 2024
Does Z Flip 5 now finally support DEX mode? It seems like every reviewers are skipping this part every time.
I'm sure it doesn't
Sadly not
So weird why not when the S23 does.
Oh, that's really bad. Don't care much myself because I also have the s22 ultra but I couldn't use th Flip4 only because I can't work without DEX...
I don't get it either. But I have my old S20 when I need Dex. But I did upgrade my Z Flip 4 because of the insane upgrade trade in.
i would go for flip as i seen weird aspect ratios in some foldable like one my sister has, flip youtube don’t look as odd as on fold for an example, or instagram or twitter
It's not the Honor Magic V2. That's the one I'm going to hold in a shop in the UK.
Well at least you waited until after the event was over to upload lol so I'll watch yours first.
I thought this year they integrate a periscope camera!
Hi Tom. Thanks for the great first-look. Thought I'd mention it because a week or so again, I had a moan that you said nothing that wasn't already in the companies description/adverting. So, it falls to me to now thank you for this helpful vid. And, I'm happy to report that another good reviewer didn't mention a number of things you helpfully picked up on. So 👍👍
Just thought that as I'd previously had a moan, I'd balance it with something totally opposite. Thanks again. Martin
Thanks Martin! I appreciate that. As you say this is a first-look and all creators basically had the same information
can you please compare it with the v2
The honor magic V2 have better design overall I havent tested but You can use it as a regular cellphone without unfold it
A good review, non biased
Thanks!
that flip 5 outside display... not a fan honestly, looks like a weird folder from old.
Also... 1899 here for that fold 5... jesus en 1199 for the flip 5 (in euro)
Yeah it's pricey. Hopefully more competition will help
It doesn't give more room for side by side than a pixel fold? It's the same surface area turned into portrait?
U gotta try out the VIVO X Flip, I believed it is the leading flip phone in the market.
This is why the Pixel fold release was so important. Samsung owns the foldable market right now and the pixel fold represents actually competition in the US. Samsung has become like Apple. Releasing phones with essentially no upgrades. They need to be pushed to do more and the pixel fold release is going to do just that
the moto razr flip phone is out here doing it's best too! Really good for innovation
Just wanna say watching this video in 4k on my S23 Ultra is *chef's kiss*
Hii z fold 5 worth getting please
Both are gorgeous
Thank you. My cameraman isn't too bad, either
Flip 5 offers more practicality, especially when you have to shoot videos. While it's easy to carry and fits so well in the pocket. This is the best phone I have used in years.
I got the flip 5. What made me want to buy a flip phone is how I can fold it, and it fits in my pocket perfect
Take an inch off the top, and use some of that to widen it ... and use that widening to add a pen ... i'd consider buying
Think a lot of people would agree
I see u got the boss as your wallpaper 😂
Contractually mandated
You missed Z folder own new case equip with a new flat pen .
The crease is different, i went to at&t yesterday and compared it to the fold 4. There's a significant difference in the creases. Everyone who pre-ordered the phone will realize that when they get the phone.
How is it different
@ericxplosion08 it's not as noticeable as it was on the fold 4. The fold 4 crease is a little wider and a little deeper. The z fold 5's crease is there but it's a little more shallower. It looks more like a faded straight line. I feel like people who are not youtubers that pre-ordered the fold 5 will notice that difference.
And no not all youtubers are making a big deal of the crease. It's not an issue, but from a good portion of the people I follow, they tell you in their videos their's a difference with the crease. It's not a huge difference, but you will be able to tell.
tbh i dont feel like it deserves to be called an upgrade since the fold 3.... great video tho
I do wonder what the differences are like when you compare them 2+ generations apart instead of just the one. Food for thought I guess.
Fun informations, even samsung put fold 3 as a comparisson in their page rather than using fold 4. They know the improvement is miniscule.. 😂
True! And of course most people upgrade from 2-3 gens behind., Worthy of a video I think!
@@Thetechchap I think the differences are similar to an ant
Quite a few upgrades? lol.
I’ve heard the opposite from most other channels. Flip outside screen is so nice though.
Yes, there will be some pushing Samsung products, but these are not anything other than iterative upgrades, or catching up. The latter is catching up with removing the gaps and having a more useful front display on Flip 5. Other than that the usual chip update and in the UK, the inexplicable price rise!
Did you watch the rest of the video though? Overall I am a bit underwhelmed, except for the Flip's cover scree
Awesome hands on video as always bro
Thanks! Do our best!
Ugh. I’m still loving my flip 3 and I’ve been offered an upgrade. Flip or fold 5 but I dunno… I love the flip but I wonder about the fold.. I might go for the fold, but I’m wondering if I should go for the s23?? But I’m not sure if I wanna go back to slab phone.. I love my flip 3! So I think I might try the fold 5.. ugh… decisions..
what about Honor magic V2 vs Z fold 5 for Hardware and software which one is batter?? @Thetechchap
Nice
I was thinking to buy fold but now i might change it to flip after u said u order flip 😅🤭
I feel like getting both flip 5 and fold 5
Ikr? 😂 i wanna get one of them but im stil confused which one should i get
After watching this video you have cured my F.O.M.O thanks for the video !
does the z flip 5 support ultra wide in 60 fps fhd or uhd?
4k60 both lenses
@@Thetechchap nice to know! For some reason the z flip 3doenst allowed 4k 60 ultra wide. But nice to know that it for the z flip 5 works!
All time IPhone user here (moonlighting an s9 work phone.) I’ve decided to preorder the ZFold5. I’ve been to Best Buy a few times and played with the 4, and love it.
Multitasking, Dex, and the whole aspect ratio for one handed use.
The pixel is nice, but far too wide for my pockets, and gaming on it is abysmal.
Bro I have the iPhone 12 Pro and I’m due for an upgrade I really like the fold 5 but idk if I can go without iMessage and FaceTime all my pictures synced to iCloud
@@flowfactoryinc07 As an all time iCloud user, I’ll have to transfer somewhere around 20GB of photos to another medium, but google offers cloud storage (through phones plans as an add-on and separately) and there are a ton of other seamless cloud storage apps that work with Samsung phones.
Instead of FaceTime I’ll use Fb video, Instagram video, Snapchat video, etc.
I probably FaceTime 4-5 times a week now.
IMessage is nice because you can always text over WiFi & I work in an area with no cell service.
I’m planning on using the WeChat workaround to receive iMessages for my current apple buddies.
Just need that mythical Apple foldable now...
I can relate I been a loyal Apple customer for yrs (IPhone XS max, MacBook Air & IPad) going back to the 4. I’m getting the Flip 5 next week. I been really bored with IPhones lately, so I’m gonna try Samsung and keep my iPhone of course. LoL
Hmm, your video is the first video where I've noticed the Fold5's speaker grille is a bit smaller than the Fold4's. So, thank you for that camera angle/ comparison.
Could you please compare speakers of the Fold5 and Fold4 in your full review if possible?
Yep will do. Wasn't possible in brief hands-on but I have the device in the studio as of yesterday
does z fold 5 has got DeX for sure?
Yep.
Ez to find new flip4 for $450 now but i need 512gb if i can find one at $500-550 price
If you see anyone from Samsung ask why our trade in deal jn the UK for a Flip4 is £440 and in the states they can get $900 for the same phone and for the Zflip2 $400!
Reckon I'd get a fair, sensible answer?
Well my flip5 makes about 5hrs /6 hrs on screen depending if i use more the smaller screen it can be 6.5 hrs...
Also if you turn the standar 60hz you must end the day easly.
Looks great, but based on the previous model i'd say: I'll wait another year.
Great review Tom thanks. I do think despite progress these flip smart phones still feel like an experimental project. It’s that crease in the middle I think. It will take another 5 years or so for them to get to the Tony Stark level. Would be great if Apple entered the game as that would create more competition and innovation. Will get there but not yet!
I would be very excited if Apple joined the foldable game!
@@ThetechchapTech ain't ready. And Apple would absolutely not be happy forcing iPhone apps on a larger display or iPad apps on a smaller one.
I need to upgrade my sn8 and every time i wait till something catches my eye. My sn8 is dinosaur but still working fine except keyboard now sticks. So y'all do not help with showing 2 phone's. What phone is best on market and will last as well as my sn8 with great battery life? And i don't like iPhones. Thank's
Cheap Samsung can't include a charging brick with a $1900 phone.
Didn't know L.A Knight did tech reviews.
Compare the Fold 5 to the Honor V2 please 😎
It does have better design. Samsung still has it's usual software advantages
I am not really impressed with the upgrades. I know that the form factor has its limitations, but still. Just a better processor and a slight improvemnt in the camera department. The Flip 5 is the interesting one with the outer screen which is a big improvement from last year, but Motorola has executed it much better in my opinion. This being Samsung, means it will sell well.
Looks good, but kind of dissapointed.
disagree on Motorola's outer screen, I don't think it's as good as the Z Flip 5 imo
Think a lot of people feel the same
@@spike5499 We agree, to disagree. :)
@@Thetechchap Love your videos.
Sitting down with these phones in your back pocket would be heartbreaking.....
🥲
and yet the phone with i is always a refinement of the previous one.
Good phones
The processor is called the Snapdragon 8Gen2 For Galaxy
There is some audio issue.
Really?
How to charge s pen?
Optional case
Mentioned the Flip 5's front screen was twice the size of the Fold 4...guessing you meant Flip 4.
Yeah it is - if you hold it very close to your face. OK maybe I slipped up there.
@@Thetechchap 😂 happens to the best of us
NGL, I kinda wanna trade in my fold 4 for the flip 5. I was hoping for a built in s pen for the fold 5... 😭
Hoping for built-in S-Pen in future for sure. Maybe next year!
I'm in the same boat as you. As a matter of fact I pre ordered the flip 5 in the Samsung exclusive grey/black.
The fold 5 is essentially a fold 4 pro !!
Fold 4: Flatter Edition
What color did you pick?
Got a Mint Flip 5
I like flip 5
I really like the idea of having a flip phone in 2023, but I'll stay with the s series phone until samsung gives us an almost normal aspect ratio. Same with the fold.
Yeah - especially on the Fold cover screen - it's still weirdly tall
No, thank you, but NO!
My 2 years old S22 Ultra have more than twice better camera, more RAM and bigger battery than this NEW Fold 5.
108MP vs 50MP, 5000mAh vs 4400mAh. 16GB RAM vs 12GB RAM. It is a no brainer if I have ANY incentives to "Upgrade".
Upgrading from S22 Ultra will be a straightforward DOWNGRADE.
Samasung?! Wake up and smell the coffee or else!
The fold 5 battery life is not that great after all .. im a heavy user , need to charge 2 times in a day ... do not know about others
Wrong..the crease is less noticeable on z fold5 compared to the z fold4..
I put my hands on z fold 5 at my local Bestbuy yesterday and it is Lighter in weight and the screen gets brighter and the crease was DEFINITELY LESS NOTICEABLE, U can almost not see it or feel it... and could not see or tell the inner screen protector was there... this is compared to the z fold4..
I'm actually impressed about the crease being less noticeable..😮😁👍WOW.. the s pen and the case is also nice and light and flat/thin..
It is a little less noticeable, yes. You can feel the 10g weight difference too
This is random but I am curious how people with these phones will record karens cuz you know at some point a karen is gonna be like why you unflip/unfolding your phone? ;)
I like 👍 the fold better
Wait a second still the narrow cover display in fold 5
Afraid so!
You're the only one i have heard so far who admits the z fold looks bad , like first generation, compared with the Honor magic V2.
*Size matters* 😎👍
Especially where it counts (screen size)
Commented this on Mr Mobiles first look, as im pretty disappointed with these phones:
You know who really dropped the ball this year? Apple not dropping a foldable based off the Samsung fold 5 rumours. Knowing that there was gonna be basically no change, and guessing the justified sales drop that *should* come with that, apple could have really snuck in this year and dropped a foldable to steal a huge amount of market share. But i guess they are still a couple of years away..
As usual - they do it in their own sweet time. I reckon they'll count on existing iPhone owners anyway so there's no rush
Haha wonderful
Charging speed is still much better than the abysmal Pixels 2 hours charge time.
I m in love with flip 5 but i have s23 ultra😂
People who love flips really seem to love them. Lot of people don't 'get' them at all
1st
Almost 😂
Great Vids, thankyou. These phones might be competing with the 15" MacBook air as the most overrated pieces of new tech in 2023 - iterative updates at the most.
It's evolution for sure. Fold could do with taking a long hard look at the Honor Magic V2
I am a long term Samsung Fan and User. And by long time I mean loooong time.
I have to admit. Even tho Samsung started all this "foldable" trend they are far behind. They promised us so much technology with all that screen technology but can't manage to take steps forward. No intergrated spen still a crease extreme fat and bulky phone's woth less battery capacity etc. It's really frustrating. The whole brand is losing their integrity. Focusing on sales and not on the customers...
At this point I have to say brands like honor are overtaking in high-speed because they listen to their audience.
I will quit Samsung. After almost 2 decades as a fan.
That is truly sad to say.
Im chosing the flip 5
Zero crease,a wider front screen,better battery life,Thinner bezels,space for s pen built into the device and for 1800$ at least a fast charging brick for crying out loud.
Why do you keep saying 8 gen 2 gen 2 ... it's 8 gen 2 for galaxy *
