It was slow, unresponsive and phone call sound quality sucked! The deal breaker was when it became very HOT. TOO HOT TO HOLD!! I powered it off and 45 min later it was still HOT! Hard NO! I returned it to the store.

Terrible Experience

I got so ripped off on the price of this phone and this has completely lost my trust in all marketing. I purchased the 512gb phone as a preorder at $100. A little context, there's a 14-15 day return period for this phone (in which you could return or price adjust it). But get this... literally right on the dot a little over 2 weeks later they lowered the price $400!!!! Right after the return period ended! Even worse, I have TotalTech (and honestly should get rid of it) and they wouldn't even consider an exception to the return window. Not even a day or two more. Now I know never to preorder anything :) LOVELY experience :) Not to mention, this phone was marketed as an improvement from Zfold4 but it's virtually the same phone in every way.

Not for me. The folding option is cool but the main screen is too long and too narrow for consistent use. When open, again, cool, but not a game changer as I hoped it would be.

A Foldable Marvel: Samsung Z Fold 5
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The Samsung Z Fold 5 is nothing short of a technological masterpiece, a foldable smartphone that seamlessly blends engineering prowess, cutting-edge design, impressive camera capabilities, and a user experience that redefines the possibilities of mobile technology.
Engineering (5/5):
Samsung's engineering prowess is on full display with the Z Fold 5. The device boasts an innovative foldable display that feels sturdy and robust. The hinge mechanism has undergone significant refinement since its earlier iterations, offering smoother folding and unfolding. Once you use it you will feel the regular square phone technologies are backdated.
Design (5/5):
The design of the Z Fold 5 is a true showstopper. When unfolded, the device offers a stunningly large, immersive display that makes multitasking a breeze. When folded, it transforms into a sleek and compact smartphone that easily fits in your pocket. The device feels premium in hand
Camera (4.8/5):
The camera setup on the Z Fold 5 is nothing short of impressive. It features a versatile array of lenses that deliver exceptional photo and video quality. I upgraded my S22 Ultra and I miss it when I take photos in higher zoom. However, the Z Fold 5 delivers detailed pictures.
User Experience (5/5):
The user experience on the Z Fold 5 is where it truly shines. Samsung has optimized its One UI for the foldable form factor, ensuring a seamless transition between folded and unfolded modes. Multitasking is a joy, with the large unfolded display allowing you to run multiple apps simultaneously. The device's performance is top-notch.
In conclusion, the Samsung Z Fold 5 is a triumph of engineering and design, offering an unrivaled user experience. Its camera capabilities, while impressive, could use slight improvements in certain scenarios. Battery life could have been a bit better.S pen must be included considering the cost of the device. The pricing strategy can be revisited to attract more customers. Long story short, if you are ready to have higher budgets on your phone then forget the iPhone. iPhone experience is dumb (literally dumb) once you use this Foldable Marvel
