Samsung - Galaxy Z Fold4 256GB - Graygreen (Verizon)

Had an awesome experience when I bought an unlocked z fold 2 back in Feb 2021 that I decided that I would take a stab at it again in October 2022. Bought this one to use thru Verizon (not unlocked) . Although the features are updated a bit, you would think that they would bring back the memory card slot (nope) but still not a make or break for the phone. what is however compared to the z fold 2 the z fold 4 feels cheaply made. I have had it for a little over a year now and I have never had a phone this bad. For some reason I have lost the ability to use my ear speaker as I can not hear anyone when I call them unless I use the phone on speaker. and if the Z fold 4 can withstand over 200K folds explain to me how I already have bubbles down the center of my tablet screen not to mention that the screen no longer displays a screen at all, when powered on. God forbid that I try to open the phone up during a phone call it will just go black and the phone shuts off and reboots. I can only use the front screen. Looks like that this will be one that I will have to get rid of quickly. (Not knocking Samsung as alot of my products are Samsung. I can only hope that the next one I get is better.)

Nice phone, good screen quality, awsome features, and easy to use.

Absolutely love it! The front screen is a little narrow but you get used to it right away. Unless you watch a bunch of videos on your phone you probably won't use the big screen too often. But it is great for when you do want a bigger screen. The phone is heavy and thick also. I bought the case with the s pen and i literally never use the s pen and can't even find a reason to use it. Battrry charges from dead to 100% insanely fast also. I would recommend if you love watching videos on phone and dont mind it being clunky and heavy in your pocket.

I really like this phone. I read a lot and having the extra wide screen has been great. In addition, you can split screen by application if you choose.. this comes in handy when reading mail. You get the email on one side with your email list on the other, you also can keep the phone closed and use it like a normal phone. So in essence you have 3 screens.

This is definitely the best phone I've ever had. I've had Galaxies, Notes and this one surpasses them. The larger screen is great for watching videos and streaming. The dual app feature is great for doing two things at once on the screen. The front screen took a little getting used to for texting. It's slightly narrower than a Note 10. The facial recognition for security is very fast as well as the fingerprint security. Pictures and video recording quality are amazing! Overall, I would definitely recommend this phone.

I really love this phone! I'm coming from the Note line. Had them all except note 4 and 7 so I thought I was going for the s22 ultra but thought it be best to wait on the s23 ultra next yr since I heard that will be much better. I was using my iPhone 12 pro, note 20 ultra and note 10 plus so I thought what's the sense anyways? I started reading that ppl were getting a fold and I kind of chuckled and thought wow is this 2009 again, but once I read the reviews and watched videos on it I thought why not even though it's close to 2 grand! 1st time I got it I didn't even bother I took it right back didn't even turn the phone on or activate it I just opened the box but of course they made me pay a restocking fee anyway but in the process of the return a girl who wkd there pulled out the same phone and started playing around with it but it was too late to say hey I don't want to return it anymore cause they did all the work so next day I got the phone again but this time I activated it and ever since then I can't get enough of it. Only downside is the outer screen is too narrow cause as I stated I'm coming from enormous note phones but the inside screen more than makes up for it also I use Microsoft SwiftKey as my keyboard so the outer screen isn't that hard working with cause their keyboard is way bigger than the stock keyboard. The battery lasts me a pretty long time like both my note 10 plus and note 20 ultra do so I don't have to worry about battery drainage. I also have 2 lightning fast chargers so they charge up pretty quickly. As long as you go into battery settings and put apps to sleep the battery should get you through a whole day or more. I highly recommend this phone. Yes it's pricey but with the monthly device payment plans and even great trade in deals you can get a grand off on this phone. Yes it's a bit heavy and bulkier with a case but it doesn't bother me but just make sure it's snug in your pocket so it doesn't come tumbling out. I use a purse so I don't worry but I did buy an i Blason Cosmo case on Amazon that is quite slippery and as much as I love it cause it has a pen compartment I'd rather have something that has more of a grip to it. If you like the pen you have to buy 1 cause it doesn't come with 1 and you can't use an S-pen that came with the note phones it has to be for the fold only. Yes of course Samsung anything to get us to spend more $! Also no charging block so if you're coming from an iphone you need to spend extra $ on a charger unfortunately, but eBay or Amazon has cheap ones if you don't feel like spending large amounts of $ on them at your carrier. I can go on about the different things it comes with but I'd be here all day. I'm not much into picture taking since my dog passed away but I assure you this phone takes dope pics! You can take pics while phone is closed or open and either way it takes great photos. I heard a z fold 5 will be out next yr but I didn't want to wait esp since I heard there won't be much difference but if you already have z fold 3 I'd wait on the 5. All the videos I've watched say not much difference between 3 and 4 except the outer screen is only slightly wider on the 4. I heard horror stories about the screen cracking in the middle of outer screen or ppl whining about the fold part noticeable but I really don't notice it I'm too wrapped up in what I'm doing to even notice it and if you do it's only if the screen is turned off. The hinge is super sturdy so I don't see the screen cracking but even so that's what insurance is for plus you get a yr warranty. Now it you're accident prone then maybe but as long as you have a case it should be fine. The inner screen has a pre-installed screen protector but outer doesn't but most of the cases for this phone have built in screen protectors but if it doesn't I highly recommend a screen protector then.

Was a great phone for the first year then the problems started. The front screen started to peel off and make a craking noise evertime I open it. Its still great to have the big open screen, but now i just cant wait to go back to a regular phone.

This phone has been fantastic. I'm a teacher and having a phone that converts to a tablet so I can view my students screens and show examples on the fly is a game changer. No flaws with the screen yet, and everything is clear. The battery lasts all day and connects to my remote gaming devices before bed.
