The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 foldable phone turns into an Android tablet that is actually nice to use. An objectively ridiculous selfie camera is offset by stylus support, water resistance, and an improved screen that is way nicer to the touch. Dieter Bohn has all that and more in this review.

This is the best review for the Fold 3. You make the best point at the end that no other reviewer has — this is what foldables will be until there is a technological breakthrough so no point holding out if you want a foldable
Won’t stop talking about the fact that he’d reported the broken phone… every time!
😍😍 I love the Z Flip 3
That crease though
Hot take:
1) Multitasking in Fold 3 is better than in iPad.
2) iPad is way more fluid in what it does, though.
I don’t have time to rewatch all the z fold 3 reviews so I’ll ask this here.… I saw in 1 review someone using it as an ereader and the layout was 2 pages side by side. What app is this possible in? I’ve tried about a dozen and I can’t reproduce it.
Nice short review, The Samsung Z Fold 3 is a nice phone but it is missing the SD card slot.
Someone watches Evangelion.👍
The remark about multitasking. Really? Try that on ANY apple phone or tablet right now.
Gosh, I am OCD, but tech reviewers surpass me big time. Upset about the ‘visible’ camera in the inside screen? Come on people!!!
The fold 2 is actually unofficially water resistant too, and it stood up to dust tests
Great review. The fold is nice, but it still isn’t a note.
People make excuses but Bottom line. People don’t want pay the price. 200 dollar price drop is not enough. I loved the fold 2 and now I have fold 3. I’m all for samsung foldables
Dieter is the only guy I like on verge
I just recently purchased my fold 3 this past week and honestly I can’t put my phone down!! I enjoy watching YouTube, movies, my stocks, play games and the list goes on and on!! This phone it’s simply amazing!😆
Why didn’t you just put the phone in the jug that was already full of water?
I predict, the Fold 4 will eliminate the crease, perfect underdisplay cameras and optimize the size of the phone.
Samsung has perfected the design and infrastructure of the Fold. The next version will perfect the concept and I see Samsung introducing another form factor shortly thereafter. An even larger display!
Get an ipad mini
Waterproof and S pen upped the game for me. Wish there was a place ON the phone for the pen!! Great video!!
Getting this over the iPhone 13 pro
The technology of foldable devices is only going to get better. I just think samsung needs to take in more regular people’s ideas, which would allow them to think outside the box and consider new ideas.
I was skeptical, I was in doubt so I went and bought the 12 Pro Max last year. Just now that I jumped on the Z Fold 3, I’m loving it. It is a Dieter mentioned, as good as a folding phone can be. So as a customer who refused to be loyal to a brand unless it can make sense of my purchase, please Apple be innovative as you once were. Be brave and actually care about your product. iPhone is blant and it was as if they knew customers will just pay for it regardless.
Coming from a Zfold 2. I love my Z fold 3!
After all these years, these folds are REAL phablets 😂
Dieter you scare me
the duo fold is just around the corner
got my fold3, and love it
This is the most advanced smartphone on the market. It doesn’t have an Apple logo on it so people aren’t losing their minds… so underrated, unfortunately.
Seems inevitable that the S line becomes the tier 2 line while the Flip and Fold become the flagships within the next 10 years. Flip will replace the S line and Fold will replace the Note line.
Still, they have kinks and successor issues to work out on top of price so, I’ll continue to hold off. I think by their 5th iteration, they should be good enough for most to purchase function wise so, will just need the price may come down more to accomodate the people who buy flagships and notes.
I actually love the front camera I don’t ever notice the screen door effect anymore intill I’m looking for it
Fold 3 owner here. Foldable phones are definitely a thing and I for one could never go back
if you want a camera buy a camera not a cell phone gezz.
I’ve been a long time IPHONE user and made the switch to the Zfold 3. A bit of a learning curve, but I’m getting comfortable with it. Love this device and could not be more pleased. Folding phones are the next big thing.
It was amazing on z fold3 , i had just brought at sg
Samsung stop making notes, so the big phone people (me) will buy the Z Fold series, makes sense! Either its the Note Ultra or the Z Fold
Great review…very indepth! This was like reading the manual but more fun 🙂 Do people even read manuals anymore though…lol. Great job on your video 🙂
I love this phone, only complaint I have is battery life.
I’m trading my Pixel 6 for a Fold 3 because i’m tired of buying a marginally refreshed slab that’s like all the others before it like I have been for years. Most new phones just aren’t bringing that much new innovation to the masses. This one is. I’ve also been really disappointed with the bugginess i’ve had with the pixel 6 ever since taking it out of the box.
