Samsung - Galaxy Z Flip 5G 256GB (Unlocked) - Mystic Bronze

This is a great phone right out of the box. I was skeptical about the reviews regarding its quality. But after several weeks of practical use, this phone has proven it’s worth and is truly a work horse. I am very SATISFIED with this purchase. I am also pleased with Samsung for having the phone ship pre-installed with a screen protector. I highly recommend this to anyone interested in having the phone of the future.

I LOST MY FIRST REVIEW ON THIS PHONE. So I'm trying to put down all the info before I loose it again. All of the I-phone gals love this phone because Apple does not have one yet. The phone has less features than my Note 8 or Note 9. It has NO stylus. It has NO way of adding more memory. NO ear phone Jack. NO Iris recognition but a hard to use finger print reader. It only works after many trys, glad it has a four digit code when the reader does not detect a programed finger print. NO video calling, you have to use a new app called DUO which is actually FREE to down load from the Google store and the Apple store to make a video calls with the DUO phone app. The software program for my Yahoo mail is different on this flip phone. The Z flip phone is very slippery when wet and it loves finger prints on screen. I bought a phone protector from ARAREE and also a holster with a belt clip from BELTRON . I use them both. I only use the phone holder with the belt clip. I use the ARAREE protector that has a place to put a lanyard on and it also has a movable plastic cover over the swival hinge. See the pictures for details. The keyboard splits up when rotating the phone to make the screen larger. the system of charging my watch 3 with this phone does not charge because of the phone protector blocks the charging signal from the flip phone. Best to use a lanyard around your wrist. I use a Blutooth keyboard and mouse instead of the split keyboard when you rotate the phone. This phone will be used as my spare phone while my primary phone will be a Note 9. It is a nice paper weight that I can keep in my shirt pocket. It is a nice conversation piece when you flip it open in front of any I_phone users. My primary phone will still be a Note 9. Thank you Samsung for making a I-phone that flips in the middle.

Within 4 months of purchase there was an air bubble forming in the fold. Within a couple days that air bubble spread across the fold. Today, 7 months from when the product was delivered, the top half of my screen is not working. I can see what is displayed but touch screen stopped working. Within days a black line started spreading through the crease, kind of looks like ink, and it is slowly spreading to the bottom portion of the phone.

Less than 7 months and while oppening the phone i hear a soft crack and here we go... the whole screen turns slowly black) . Not a good choice for phone

Disappointed for the price. The screen is lifted where it folds & also just went completely blank

I bought this in large part for the protection it has for the screen if dropped. Samsung apparently could not stand to sell something that doesn't easily crack when dropped (< 3 foot) -- Other than that - I love the phone . but this is a deal breaker (no pun intended) for me

It was not an easy decision for someone who has a Mac, iPad, and Apple watch to give up on my iPhone 11 Pro, and Apple watch as a result. But this phone offers something Apple doesn't. The display feels like a normal glass display it's solid, it doesn't bounce like I thought it will. It has fewer reflections and looks like it's naked. The optical clarity is unreal on this phone. It's giant when you need it and tiny when you don't. The mechanism is solid and it gives me confidence that the phone will last. You won't scratch it unless you have very long nails because the phone is always closed in your pocket. If you want to buy think twice! You won't be able to go back to the typical form factor never ever again. Once you use this, everything else is gonna be everything else to you. Even the iPhone.

Just picked up today, i am a LONG time samsung person, i have samsung tvs, players, phones, watches etc. So i got this today and i have to say i like it. Now, i see some arguments on this phone such as no extra memory slots, no headphone jacks, etc. First, 256gb is quite a bit of room, so that should be more then enough space for normal operation or video watching As far as headphone jack, who uses wires anymore? Most use blutooth. Now, the rest. The transfur of my data from my S20 to this phone using smart switch was very fast, even with this phone at 18%. It took a few minutes after transfuring it to mirror my last phone, so just give it a few minutes if you do it. Its pretty fast, even for my only yr old 20. The screen is bright and vibrant, love that. I streamed videos off youtube, hbomax and disney+, idk if it was 1080p or true 4k but man it looked amazing. As far as audio goes, it sounds a little hollow, not that much base compared to s20, i tried messing with the basic audio settings but couldnt boost it, maybe theres a app or work around for bass/tremble Phones calls are nice and clear. The wall paper & lock screen images are very crystal clear, pictures come out pretty nice. The only reason i give it 4 stars out of 5 is because of the confusion of a screen protector. Samsung says dont replace it yet bestbuy & other sites sell screen protectors for hte phone. Heck, some of them sell HD screen protectors.
