Wow, the Galaxy Z Flip3 is finally the foldable technology ready for the masses! I've sat on the sideline for a few years eagerly anticipating a proper foldable phone and I'm happy to report that it's here. Build quality is brilliant, the display is vibrant, and the functionality is quite nice. If you're an Android fan or if you're already in the Samsung ecosystem, this upgrade is an absolute no-brainer. However, if you're an iOS user, like me for the past few years, the transition is tough. I used Android from 2008-2018, switched to iOS, and got deep into the Apple ecosystem. Adding the Galaxy Flip3 into my tech routine was too jarring. Samsung's software, despite all of its improvements over the years, is still too slow and jittery for me. There's always a debate over Android vs. iOS, but in my opinion, iOS is just a lot more seamless and sleek compared to Samsung's UI. A foldable Samsung phone with Pixel software? Winning combination. Anyways, as I mentioned, if you're upgrading from an older Samsung or Android device, this is perfect. If you're going from iOS to Samsung, this is hard to recommend.

Poor battery life. The screen buckles where the phone bends.

I bought this phone from Best Buy in October of '21. •First issue I had two months later is that the cover screen would intermittently go blank with no explanation. Sent it off to Samsung twice! Was sent back as functional with no problems. Even sent it to their authorized repair shop which was two hours. away from where I live with the same answer. •Second issue is the batter charge. The battery drains as quickly as it charges. I have to charge the phone 4-5 times a day. As soon as I disconnect it from the charger the percent starts dropping instantaneously (less than 20 seconds). •Third issue I have is that the wireless charger doesn't work well anymore. I've tried every wireless charger I have (including the Samsung charger I paid $50 for) and it either charges extremely slow or not at all. •The most frustrating and infuriating issue I had was that 2 pixel spots appeared on my screen. I NEVER dropped the phone, not even once! I've always taken great care of my phones. I've never even had a cracked screen. When I sent the phone to Samsung they wanted to charge me almost $400 to repair the screen!! Even after complaining to every high ranking rep I could get in touch with it did absolutely no good. I paid cash for this phone. I also made the mistake of changing cell phone providers 2 months late and now my visual voicemail and wifi calling do not work, so beware if you decide to change providers like I did. The phone basically has all of the same features as the other high end smart phones. The only difference is the folding feature and the cover screen, which attracted me to the phone in the first place. I paid $1,000 for this phone and sincerely regret this purchase. And I hope Samsung sees this review. This phone stinks!!!

Okay, I've only had this phone for one day. So, I really can't give an in-depth review. I really just wanted to share an experience I had with the Samsung Galaxy Z while attempting to do a file transfer from my old phone. Upon attempting to do the transfer, the Samsung's screen went blank. The power button did nothing to bring it out of this state. Folding the phone showed that the date/time on the outside of the phone was also blank. It was as if the phone had died. This really had me concerned. However, I was hoping it may be normal while the transfer was taking place. After about five minutes, I came to the conclusion that this wasn't right. So, I tried calling the Samsung from my land line. The call went through. I could hear the Samsung ringing, but it didn't come out of its blank screen mode. At least the phone hadn't died! So, I did an internet search to see if anyone else experienced this issue, and if there was a solution. Turns out, this is not uncommon in a Samsung. The solution was to press the power and volume buttons simultaneously for about 15-20 seconds until the screen comes back on. I did this, and after about 15 seconds the screen lit up. I then saw a bunch of text and numbers. In general, the text will ask if you want to install a new operating system, or keep the operating system that came with the phone. I just wanted the phone to go back to its original, usable state. So of course I elected to keep the original OS. The text informed me that I needed to press the volume down button to keep the original OS. So, I pressed the volume down button and the phone's home page came up. Just as it was before the crash. All was now well with the phone. Needless to say, I will not be attempting to do the file transfer again. The phone itself is very nice. I really like the option to fold the phone. It will defiantly help protect the screen from scratches. The folded phone is also much easier to carry in your pocket. The screen is also very sharp and clear. I really hope the phone has no more issues, as I really like it and would like to keep it for a long while. I gave the phone three stars because of the crash. That should never have happened on a $1,000 phone on its first day of use. But I'm optimistic that there will be no more issues (fingers crossed).

The Z Flip 3 is a great phone. It's very easy to ise. The only reason it didn't get 5 stars is because the screen protector develops a crease iver time and it lifts up in tje fold, trapping debris behind it.

As of today, I have really enjoyed this phone. It works very well and runs smoothly. The folding crease of the screen is noticeable at first, but after a few days I got used to it. Also, although the Flip has a shorter battery life, I have yet to fall under 30% after a day's use. Oh, and the front screen when the phone is closed... very amazing! It includes a lot of features such as setting a background picture, quickly reviewing messages, emails, etc. and using other widgets such as a music player (in my case, Spotify), and Samsung Health. The camera is great, but not excellent. Perhaps if a newer model of the Flip came out then Samsung could incorporate a bigger camera sensor. The only con I have about this phone is that sometimes (although not frequently) the temperature of the upper back of the phone does heat up a bit. It usually occurs when I am using an app that does require a considerable amount of processing speed and graphics. Hopefully in the future Samsung can make improvement in that area. But, regardless of that, it's an amazing phone that I really enjoy using now and in the future.

Great phone. Was very fast and snappy, cameras were good. Only cons of this phone in my opinion was the battery which did not last long at all during a normal amount of usage, and the lack of samsung dex, which I don't know why was snubbed considering this is a flagship model phone.

Cool phone. I love how compact it can get when closed. You can barely see the crease in the middle where it folds from the front view; hasn't been an issue for me.

Nice phone Samsung case sucks get case that’s one piece and not two. The first time you fold it does put a crease but it’s not that visible when you turn it on. The draw a pattern password doesn’t allow for in between the dots making me have to reset the phone after setting it up. Other than that so far so good

I buy a lot of phones, at least every other Samsung Note released and a lot of others in between. Since I was coming from the Samsung Note 20, I wasn't expecting much of this one. BUT, this phone has truly grown on me. The convenience of having it fold to a much smaller size is a very important part of this. I didn't realize how much more convenient the small form factor was going to affect my view of this phone. The crease down the middle of the screen was bothersome at first but actually got to a point where I didn't really notice it after a while. The speed of the phone and smoothness of the UI was great for a phone in this class. The Battery Life is just average and should last the whole day unless you're a heavy user. There's only been a few days when I've had to top off the battery in the afternoon to last through the evening. It's main drawback has been the camera. Especially coming from a Note 20, the cameras are adequate but could be much better. Photos aren't as sharp and it doesn't perform as well in low light conditions. It's fine for everyday use and posting online. One thing about this phone is that it stood out from the crowd. I've had more people notice this phone because of how different it was from everything else on the market. People comment or want to see this phone more than any other I've had recently.

my wife loves this phone. she used to be an apple user and i have turned her to the dark side and she refuses to go back to apple. haha jk, she really loves this phone though. the screen did happen to hers but it was an easy fix. just as easy as fixing and iphone broken screen hehe. and facetiming and watching is super easy cause it holds itself up and the phone cases are pretty cool too.

Overall, very fun and usable phone. After a year of using it the crease is starting to show more wear and is not as responsive as it used to be. Connectivity stays very consistent and have not had many issues while in italy.

This phone is the best thing since slice bread. Easy to navigate and easy to carry. Now that California has the e ID there's no need for me to carry a wallet, everything I need is on it.
