Samsung - Galaxy Z Fold5 512GB (Unlocked) - Icy Blue

Came from a Fold 3. This iteration is a good improvement over it. Starting with the Screens, the front stays mostly the same, it is narrow but that is perfect for swipe texting one handed. The inner screen feels different but only time will tell how long the protector will hold up as it did NOT on the Fold 3. Best thing I really the increase in brightness by 700 nits! The lack of bezels is also a plus. Hardware it self feels new and improved. Opening and closing is more secure but the crease looks the same. The gapless hinge is a huge bonus as now it allows for a slimmer profile especially with a case on, although I prefer caseless. A few things about the software/cpu. It is overall a lot smoother but that usually happens with a new release. The animations seem slow at 120hz but you can fix that by lowering to 60hz or opening Dev Options and removing them altogether for a faster feel. Having more apps show in the taskbar is useful for those who switch around a lot. This thing handles multi apps open like a champ without much heating. Games run without a stutter the battery so far gives me 6-8hrs SOT depending on my gaming habits. Camera is a huge improvement over the old Fold 3. Look at youtube reviews and see that it almost keeps up with the S23U in bright and low light, front cam and videos but falls short of the zoom, which I don’t plan to take pics of the moon so not a negative for me. Minimal blur and sharp images of moving objects is what I need and so far so good.

The perfect combination with it's narrow external screen fits perfectly in hand. Then when unfold it becomes one of the largest phones an actual tablet with the power and functionality of a computer. That fits in any of your pockets comfortably. Providing you with the power to communicate or multi-task in a very stylish form factor in any situation.

Its an excellent phone. Great for multitasking and combination of big and small monitor.

Best fold phone you can get! AMOLED is awesome! The system is so smooth.
