At 1:27 you look Marvelous… Nice review… keep it up!
😂😂 we really need to stop pointing our the camera weaknesses of a flip phone. Manufacturers should stop putting numbers on the cameras. I'll bet if people didn't know the pixel count, they would think the pics look just as good as every other phone. Just my 2 cents
But I'm afraid it was much more than just phone-hacking, DoJ.
How's the fake Doctor doing, Phone-hackers? spit
Thought that I had played my hand? Wasn't believed? Had nothing? Think again. I never trusted any of the hypocritical freaks.
When Apple launches a flip I’ll be first in line. I’m unwilling to give up the ecosystem. Sorry Samsung, sure it’s great if you use Windows and don’t care 100% of your family are on Apple.
I preordered the 512gb version for $999. Even trade for my iPhone and costs me nothing after trade in
I Bought the Purple One!!! It's Tiny like a Lavender, Put inside My Small Bag & Voila Carry it Everywhere!!! 😃👍🏻
❤❤❤
I got mine ..already loving it
Forget the 256gb I got the 512 for the same price 999 if you pre-order it I think the offer ends tomorrow
Goodlock from the galaxy store will let you use any app you'd like on the cover screen.
Great review!!
Dont know what to choose…. S23 ultra or Z Flip 5 ?!
I still don't get why Samsung kills use of Google Wallet screen closed. Very unfreindly user design and keeps me from purchasing the device.
Soon flip phones will look exactly like this when closed with a laser camera projection.
Interesting review. Tmobile had razr + for free on new and upgrades as we got ours. The refresh rate on mine is amazing and 6.9" screen is beautiful. I switched to a foldable for the large front display which has a 144Hz refresh rate screen. I can't tell difference between an 8+ or 2nd Gen on processor and could have cared less on how I use the phone. Having larger battery, cleaner android is more important on a devcie like this. I did not see flip 5 until after my purchase and the more durable thing reviewer talks about I didn't feel that or get that from the live demo in store. Quite the opposite was my experience as was several others. But to each there own. I use all brands in my home currently and will continue but not a Samsung foldable fan at all. Had a z fold 4. Sold it after 8 months. For now razr will due for daily driver. Good luck to all who choose either. Lastly, I went with razr becaue Lenovo invented the 2 in 1 laptop technology (Yoga) and hinge. Tmobile had last razr with no to minimal issues vs a lot on know z flip/fold 3 and 4 hinge issues and reason I sold mine fold. Razr+ updated hinge, and front display was perfect, and tmobile promo at launch got me to buy.
i got my z flip 5 3 days ago and i love it! its beautiful and works great!
Is the unlocked Z Flip 5 sold in the US the SM-F731U or the SM-F731B?
Youve just convinced me to get the flip 5 on friday
Samsung worldwide availability also hard to be beaten by Motorola..
I just got my Flip 5 and love it! I actually wanted the Razr+ but I was able to get a much better deal for the Flip 5 so that's what I got. The only way the Razr+ is better is the external display functionality, and that's marginal. I installed Good Lock so even that isn't a factor anymore. The Flip 5 is better in every other area and will get software updates for five years. Battery life seems decent so far. I still have my S23 as a backup which I can use in Battery Saver Mode if I need to go long stretches between charges.
Has the reviewer been to Seoul?
I used the Fold 4 before. Since yesterday the Flip 5. I'm in love ❤️. Beautiful device. Not perfect. The camera could be better. Not all Apps are optimized for the cover display. Overall a nice smartphone that I love to use. I noticed that I don't have to unfold it all the time. Thanks to the lager cover display. Well done, Samsung.
Try both, everyone is different. Out of the two, the rarz was better for me.
Ok but like, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 is a legit game changer, whoa! #fantaclaus
I hope we get a wider screen next time than 6.7 again. And wish they'd make a Chrome or Metallic Blue model, the colors are VERY boring again this year. Metallic or chrome is flashier!
😁 pre-ordered my z flip 5 week ago and can't wait till Friday ✌️
I like to buy samsung galaxy z flip 5 but I can't because I don't have one lack rupees.
I still don’t get why I need a foldable phone though.
Regarding the amount of storage: Samsung is currently running a Pre-Order promo for a free storage upgrade. Right now, you can get the 512GB model for the same price as the base.
Nice, someone said they were sending me a new phone but i never received it.
got mine on monday, and it's nice. i do like how it's so compact, it reminds me of a GBA SP. Hoping I can get emulators to run on the cover screen…if I can…it's over!
