Regarding the amount of storage: Samsung is currently running a Pre-Order promo for a free storage upgrade. Right now, you can get the 512GB model for the same price as the base.
I still don’t get why I need a foldable phone though.
I like to buy samsung galaxy z flip 5 but I can’t because I don’t have one lack rupees.
😁 pre-ordered my z flip 5 week ago and can’t wait till Friday ✌️
I hope we get a wider screen next time than 6.7 again. And wish they’d make a Chrome or Metallic Blue model, the colors are VERY boring again this year. Metallic or chrome is flashier!
I used the Fold 4 before. Since yesterday the Flip 5. I’m in love ❤️. Beautiful device. Not perfect. The camera could be better. Not all Apps are optimized for the cover display. Overall a nice smartphone that I love to use. I noticed that I don’t have to unfold it all the time. Thanks to the lager cover display. Well done, Samsung.
Has the reviewer been to Seoul?
I just got my Flip 5 and love it! I actually wanted the Razr+ but I was able to get a much better deal for the Flip 5 so that’s what I got. The only way the Razr+ is better is the external display functionality, and that’s marginal. I installed Good Lock so even that isn’t a factor anymore. The Flip 5 is better in every other area and will get software updates for five years. Battery life seems decent so far. I still have my S23 as a backup which I can use in Battery Saver Mode if I need to go long stretches between charges.
Youve just convinced me to get the flip 5 on friday
Is the unlocked Z Flip 5 sold in the US the SM-F731U or the SM-F731B?
i got my z flip 5 3 days ago and i love it! its beautiful and works great!
Interesting review. Tmobile had razr + for free on new and upgrades as we got ours. The refresh rate on mine is amazing and 6.9″ screen is beautiful. I switched to a foldable for the large front display which has a 144Hz refresh rate screen. I can’t tell difference between an 8+ or 2nd Gen on processor and could have cared less on how I use the phone. Having larger battery, cleaner android is more important on a devcie like this. I did not see flip 5 until after my purchase and the more durable thing reviewer talks about I didn’t feel that or get that from the live demo in store. Quite the opposite was my experience as was several others. But to each there own. I use all brands in my home currently and will continue but not a Samsung foldable fan at all. Had a z fold 4. Sold it after 8 months. For now razr will due for daily driver. Good luck to all who choose either. Lastly, I went with razr becaue Lenovo invented the 2 in 1 laptop technology (Yoga) and hinge. Tmobile had last razr with no to minimal issues vs a lot on know z flip/fold 3 and 4 hinge issues and reason I sold mine fold. Razr+ updated hinge, and front display was perfect, and tmobile promo at launch got me to buy.
Soon flip phones will look exactly like this when closed with a laser camera projection.
I still don’t get why Samsung kills use of Google Wallet screen closed. Very unfreindly user design and keeps me from purchasing the device.
Dont know what to choose.… S23 ultra or Z Flip 5 ?!
Great review!!
Goodlock from the galaxy store will let you use any app you’d like on the cover screen.
Forget the 256gb I got the 512 for the same price 999 if you pre-order it I think the offer ends tomorrow
I got mine ..already loving it
I Bought the Purple One!!! It’s Tiny like a Lavender, Put inside My Small Bag & Voila Carry it Everywhere!!! 😃👍🏻
I preordered the 512gb version for $999. Even trade for my iPhone and costs me nothing after trade in
When Apple launches a flip I’ll be first in line. I’m unwilling to give up the ecosystem. Sorry Samsung, sure it’s great if you use Windows and don’t care 100% of your family are on Apple.
Thought that I had played my hand? Wasn’t believed? Had nothing? Think again. I never trusted any of the hypocritical freaks.
How’s the fake Doctor doing, Phone-hackers? spit
But I’m afraid it was much more than just phone-hacking, DoJ.
😂😂 we really need to stop pointing our the camera weaknesses of a flip phone. Manufacturers should stop putting numbers on the cameras. I’ll bet if people didn’t know the pixel count, they would think the pics look just as good as every other phone. Just my 2 cents
At 1:27 you look Marvelous… Nice review… keep it up!
뭐가 애플-라이크야 용키야. 미국 미디어들은 지들 모토로라 중국에 팔아 먹고 12만회에 폴더블 부러지는거 쉴드는 못치니 완전 앱등이 관점으로 모든걸 봄
The essential thing that everyone should be thinking about right now is investing in non-government sources of income. Especially in light of the current global economic crisis. It is still a wonderful moment to invest in gold, silver, digital money, and stocks.
I really want the z flip 5 my s22 ultra is to big I used to love big phones but I want more user freindly compact phone I can actually fit in my small bag
Is it worth the upgrade from the Galaxy S22 Ultra to the Z Flip 5?
Wow. I appreciate your honest review. I don’t know if I will upgrade to the Z Flip 5; I currently have the Z Flip 4.
“Favorite foldable” not Favorite phone.
FEELS APPLE LIKE? You lost me when these gestures have been around on Samsung for a long time. Typical CNET
Its a matter of taste i have the fold phone and the s23.
I have the galaxy flip5 512gb in lavender and i love it
If im paying 1700 for a phone it better do origami
The razr unfortunately doesn’t get much deals here in Switzerland, but Samsung devices do. So I could get the Flip 5 for about 550 CHF.
It’s an amazing thing. The cover screen is the killer feature for me: now I can use my phone one-handed on my daily commute, which is really a relief.
Want to switch deezer playlist while carrying your laptop with the left hand? No problem with the flip.
Besides that, the flip in its folded state, with the slightly assymetric quadratic cover screen, just has something cinematic to it. It almost resembles a medium format waist level viewfinder.
I love it
I have had the Z flip 5 for about two months, I love it…
It makes having a cell phone fun again.
I just got my Samsung flip 5 and at first I was debating on flip 5 or the razor flip and I went for the Samsung flip 5 and I believe I made the right choice the phone feels more durable the only thing I wish that u can put more apps on the front of the screen hopefully in the next update they let u put more apps
Wow. Great review and editing. Cheers from NZ. 😊
Just got my z flip today, I love it so far.
Just ordered a flip z this morning then sort of regretted it a few hours later. After reading the comments i am now looking forward to it arriving
I’m very desperate for this phone u wanna give or to me for free?
I Love my new samsung flip5 ❤
I think the Z Flip’s camara have always been great!
The only reviewer who spoke of app continuity both ways. Way to go.
