  • The Galaxy Z Flip 5 is a strange one. It's the foldable with the lowest barrier to entry in Samsung's lineup, but it's also the most compromised in terms of capability...and yet...

    Thanks for the video. We have two in our household. My wife has the Flip5 and my daughter has still her Flip4. The most important use-case is that both are so pocketable like no other phone while offering a huge screen. My daughter can put it into her small back pockets without exposing half of the phone to thieves. My wife also loves its look.

    Z Flip 5 is the best flip phone of 2023. Compact, powerful and really fun to use. The window display is a game changer. The UHD 60 video camera is fantastic - content creators will love it. It really look and feels very premium too. No complaints from the day I received my preorder. Apple user for 10 years and the Z Flip 5 made me excited about mobile phone technology again.

    He really nailed it. This phone has no advantage over slab phones, it’s just fun. I got it because I love the nostalgia of having a flip phone again. The only practical purpose it has is size for woman who have tiny pocket or a small purse with limited room. Power users should stay away. It’s weak points are it’s camera and battery. So a power user can kill it in a day but I usually end the day at 40 to 60 percent, because I don’t use my phone a lot and I most respond to email, go on social media and occasionally stream videos.

    • @ChibiChidorii
      @ChibiChidorii Před 4 měsíci +3

      that's good to know. I was scared of the battery claims because I don't like running out of battery in my daily commute which is quite long, but all I do is go into social media, reply emails, listen to music when I'm not home. If you get home with 40% that's a win for me

    • @ghostface0927
      @ghostface0927 Před 4 měsíci +1

      @ChibiChidorii that's all I use it for as well. I don't listen to music a ton, but you'll definitely make it through the day, even if you do. Another thing to consider is that the cases don't have a raised edge because the design of the phone makes it impossible, so I have no doubt that if you drop it on concrete and it falls flat, the screen will probably crack. I'm not clumsy, so I don't have to worried about that but if you are its definitely worth considering.

      @432wheels not so much lately (battery became weak), I would use powerbank at least 1 time in the middle of the day and charge it before night too & and then in the morning as well. With my new flip, I don't carry powerbank around anymore, can charge it before night with no need to recharge in the morning. Maybe using cover screen to do simple tasks helps with battery

    coming from a pixel 4XL, and galaxy line before that, this phone fit right in to my daily life. The aspect ratio immediately felt right, no adjustment needed. Everything the phone offers is great, and I've fallen in love with the design and the way of use that it provides. I have adapted instantly to the battery, and the cameras were beyond my expectation.

    I agree with the 1st comment. You wouldn't think a thick square would be more portable than a thin rectangle but it is! Especially for women's clothes (small pockets). Being a nerd I have a lot of tech, but the only 2 people comment on is my Z Flip and a tiny, cheap, Lenovo Chromebook. Small cute things draw people has they just look like fun vs. serious.

    The Motorola razr 40 ultra is the overall better Deal. Better external display with more options, higher heart count on the outside and inside display. “Dex-like” function, much more functional, visually higher quality. Unfortunately, there is also poorer update support. The bottom line is that it is still the (technically) better device. Camera is also great and by no means worse in everyday use. But it could definitely be better with Moto and Samsung!
