I absolutely love the idea of the Z fold phones and it has definitely been an interesting ownership experience. After purchasing the phone I was very happy with the screen clarity and image quality. I like the smaller screen on the front with the option to just open the phone and see a larger clearer version. The unfortunate part is all in the durability and functionality parts of the phones day to day use. SO many clitchy experiences on basic websites or applications. Many apps seem to be confused by the phone and aren't sure if you're on a phone or a tablet or a desktop and it seems as though these apps cannot present a fully functional person of themselves to work with this phone.

Many apps seem to be confused by the phone and aren't sure if you're on a phone or a tablet or a desktop and it seems as though these apps cannot present a fully functional person of themselves to work with this phone. Shortly after purchasing the phone a green line just appeared out of nowhere about an inch from the bottom all the way across the screen. I was using the phone normally when this happened and watch the line just appear and it has not left since. Then about a month in the was a screen issue that looks like small veins or string that formed in the middle of the screen. One again this appeared during normal use of the phone while in my hands and has not gone away since. Of course the Samsung warranty will not cover such damage as a manufacturer defect but if you have tons of money to continually pay the deductible for a replacement you can have an incredible cool kinda sorta functional tablet, phone, laptop computer thing with cracks and lines you cannot explain. Also the factory installed screen protector was peeling around the edges on its own making it appear to be just a shipping or temporary protective cover and not an actual screen protector. Games do not know how to react to the tablet/phone and MANY apps do not transfer from the open to unopened screens or vice versa. They glitch a bit and ultimately you have to close the applications and reboot them on the other screen. Cases are non protective and they don't stay on the front display side well. Just expected more from such an extremely expensive phone. Processor honestly shows no improvement in app capability and speed. I miss my Note 20 ultra. 2 let downs in a row from my to to phone manufacturer. The s22 ultra was a joke of an upgrade and the Z fold 4 is heartbreaking but I hope out hope that by version number 10 the foldable phone just may become an upgrade for something other than watching movies on a larger screen. Functions like a cheap tablet.

When the original Z Fold came out it caught my attention, however, the fragility of the device combined with the exceedingly high price tag and lack of water resistance were all deal-breakers for me. This all changed however with the Z Fold 3 though so I made the leap. I was mostly satisfied with the Z Fold 3 but I craved a better camera experience & battery life to say the least. It just so happens that close to the time that the Z Fold 4 was coming out the plastic screen protector from my inside folding screen miraculously started bubbling up. Of course, this was the extra push that I needed to make the jump over to the Z fold 4. After using the Fold 4 for some time now it has proven to be a bigger upgrade than I thought it would be.

Of course, this was the extra push that I needed to make the jump over to the Z fold 4. After using the Fold 4 for some time now it has proven to be a bigger upgrade than I thought it would be. The folding display is still amazing but Samsung has actually made it a little better. The screen's crease now doesn't feel as deep as it did on the Z Fold 3 so now it fades even more into the background enhancing the user experience. The camera is also more versatile and does a great job of taking pictures in a variety of circumstances that I am happy with, I can even take moon shots now so I don't have to be as jealous of my wife's S22 Ultra cameras. The battery life is also significantly better. I don't feel the need to charge up as often as I did when I had the Z Fold 3 and the battery can last me close to a full day on a single charge. Even though my experience with the Fold 4 has been excellent it is by no means perfect. There is still no slot in the phone for the s-pen, the front screen doesn't work with the spen, there is still no dust resistance, and the cameras could still be very much improved. Overall though Samsung got a lot of things right with this Fold 4 and I am sure that I will continue to enjoy it well into the future. I will also continue to enjoy the look on iPhone users faces when I open the Fold and they realize that they are looking into the future while they are stuck in the past with Apple.

2nd fold model I've owned from Samsung. Top down the best pocket friendly mobile device you can own. I work in IT and the extra large internal screen is a game changer for completing work tasks from remote desktop to managing consoles via a web browser. Front screen is great for quick actions or whenever you don't feel like comitting to the larger screen in some situations. This model is much improved over the fold 3 in terms of the processor, not that the 3 was slow by any means but this device will blaze though anything you throw at it with flying colors. Very good build quality as well. My device unfortunately took a tumble or 2 since I've had it on concrete and tile but only walked away with light scratches. Would not recommend this device though to someone who ... More2nd fold model I've owned from Samsung. Top down the best pocket friendly mobile device you can own.

Very good build quality as well. My device unfortunately took a tumble or 2 since I've had it on concrete and tile but only walked away with light scratches. Would not recommend this device though to someone who has long nails as they can scratch the internal screen. Only other complaint I've heard when friends and family ask to see it is the fact that all of the settings and options although nice overwhelm users used to iOS. I don't have this complaint though as I'm in IT and love the ability to customize my experience from the ground up but understand the concern from others. While this is a great device there is always room for additional improvements/innovation some thing that I would like to see in the future are:Wishlist:-wish the device folded flat/flush(there is a small gap when closed)-wish the front display also had a pixel array to hide the camera when not in use. Would gladly take a dip in image quality for this feature-wish there was a raised texture material on the volume rocker so you can find it easier in the dark or pocket-front display s pen support-wish there was a model variant with S pen slot built into the device. Could make deivce wider to accommodate or modify the hinge to be bigger in order accept an s pen. Would even accept a magnetic option for the pen to attach to the side when not in use etc just something that intergrates the pen itself to the device.-make internal display crease less noticeable, it can be jarring at first to glide your finger over the groove but you get used to after ahwile. Not noticable when viewing content but wish it wasn't there.-Battery-this is a general note for Samsung, after hearing about older devices batteries starting to swell I began looking though storage to find my older note 10 plus and galaxy S9 plus both which had swollen batteries to the point that the back glass cracked and separated from the housing. Also have 2 coworkers and a friend with devices less than 3 years old with the same issues while the old phones were in storage. At this point Samsung you need to take notice on this issue. It isn't simply a fad or bandwagoning of the YouTuber frontlinning the expose it's a real issue. The batteries themselves have a rating of at least 4-5 years printed right on the label and there still is a high probability that this will happen prematurely. I of course intend to upgrade my devices more frequently than that should affect my daily driver but not a good feeling when you spent $1800 on a deivce that my not physically survive a 3 year journey if I choose to keep it that long. Other vendors have had issues like all products there is a fail-rate but Samsung..your name should not always come first in your customers (or competitor's) mind when thinking about battery safety.Tldr: great phone great device, continue leading.the pack for foldables etc and making innovations but fix the battery issue ASAP, there are billions of galaxy's in the world and even if a lower percentage failed that touches almost everyone on the globe in some capacity. At that point everyone on earth would know someone with this issue or know someone who then also knows someone.Excuse format and grammar, quick review

Just bought the phone, been using it for a few days. There's no real issues I personally have, but understand that you MUST go into buying gimmicks knowing that you MUST make concessions.

There's no real issues I personally have, but understand that you MUST go into buying gimmicks knowing that you MUST make concessions. This phone will not have the best screen, or be the strongest processor or durability wise, and its camera is years behind the quality of cameras on phones nowadays. But what you're getting is something different than just a regular phone. There are fun quirks that set this phone apart from the competition, but understand that you are going to sacrifice certain forms of reliability. I own a professional camera, so I don't care that this phone camera is the equivalent of something top of the line in 2018. I take good care of my phones, plus never (accidentally) drop them, so the fact that the hinge can theoretically be snapped in half is less of an issue for me. The downsides FOR ME, are unimportant, so I prefer to use something fun compared to the "old reliable". Products like the flip and fold phones show me that big corporations can actually create new and interesting tech instead of regurgitating the same product over and over again. Even though Samsung is guilty with this as well, they have always been ahead of the competition when it comes to making interesting gimmicky side projects like the note line of phones, and edge line. They eventually took X gimmick or idea, iterated on it, and released a better, more refined version. Case in point, the flip 4 is the first phone in this line that is really competitive with the competition. For me, the product is around an 80 to 90/100 and I can't ask for anything better for the price point and the tech out at the moment (thank you guys who used the flip 1 to 3 for beta testing the design), but for some people, the gimmick isn't useful or fun enough for the price asked, and they might give it more of a 3 star review. If you have the expectation that this phone should be better than the tried and true flat phones out there that has been done for more than a decade now, please don't do that. Be pleasantly surprised for a quirky, slightly flawed product that comes so close to the current best phones on the market. But remember, those phones don't flip.This review is coming from a guy who bought the lavender color, 128 gb model, and I've been using the Samsung S 10 before this, the S 7 edge before that, the Note 4 before that, the IPhone 4S before that (cough cough), and a flip phone before that. I've come full circle.

It also supports powershare so you can easily charge your ear buds or share charge with a friend.It has 2 x 12 MP rear camera as well 10 MP front camera resulting in super clear pictures which can be shot at any angle. It's crisp and very clear camera can turn anyone into professional photographer and helps to save your memories into beautiful pictures .It is the ideal phone which supports all the newest features wether it's for taking pictures, making vlogs, chatting or video calling friends and family .When the phone is unfolded to any angle of your choice the main screen turns into flex mode giving you more controls over your apps, or to play or pause the music or videos.It has a smart 1.9inch cover screen which gives you even more control and information. You can personalise it according to your needs adding weather app, messages or whatever you may need. You can also check notifications on the smart cover screen and even reply to them without needing to unfold the screen.This mobile has everything I need for work as well as personal use. It is quick, responsive and very fast making day to day tasks easier and quicker.It is also compatible and connects with my Samsung active watch 4 as well as galaxy buds 2 Pro.This is the first time I have ever used a flip phone and if I have to describe it in one word it has to be "Impressive". Over all I will rate it 5/5 and highly recommend it.
I have been using my Flip 4 for just over a week. There is definately a wow-factor with this device, everyone stares at it! Visually, in Grey, this is a very smart looking phone and when folded looks in place in the work environment. The external screen displays a small yellow dot when there are notifications to see, then with a double tap you can scroll through the notifications, you can even read entire messages here! This screen can also diplay several different widgets, my favorite is the calendar which clearly shows me my diary of the day.It goes without saying, this device is great in the pocket.Opening the closing the phone is unlike flip phones of old. This requires two hands as the hinge is stiff, however this enables you to open the phone at any angle ... MoreI have been using my Flip 4 for just over a week.

The external screen displays a small yellow dot when there are notifications to see, then with a double tap you can scroll through the notifications, you can even read entire messages here! This screen can also diplay several different widgets, my favorite is the calendar which clearly shows me my diary of the day.It goes without saying, this device is great in the pocket.Opening the closing the phone is unlike flip phones of old. This requires two hands as the hinge is stiff, however this enables you to open the phone at any angle you desire. This is beneficial for video calls as you no longer have to find something to lean your phone onto!In full open mode, the phone has a nice bright and colourful screen, and moving images are super smooth with its 120Hz refresh rate. Note, this screen is not a piece of glass and actually has a screen protector applied out of the box. This protector must not be removed. I have found that the screen is a bit of a dust catcher, and where I would usually wipe it against my clothes, that doesnt work quite as well due to the raised edge that exists all around the screen. Im not sure why this raised border is there but as its similar in protrusion to a normal phone case, so I expect most people will be used to it being there.I regularly visit building sites, and i have noticed that tiny dust particles can sometimes enter the hinge making a crushing sound when I open the phone. This is not ideal at all, however I can imagine that most people may not experience this if they keep the phone clean at all times!Overall, I love that the phone folds and I believe future iterations will just get better.
After seeing the first few renditions of this model i was always super intrigued as i have always loved samsung and the idea of having an all in one phone and essentially mini-tablet all in one workstation that now after using i also know you can use as a portable COMPUTER as long as you have a smart tv to connect to or a hdmi adapter for your phone. I switched from a iPhone 12 Pro Max after using it for about 2 years and this phone is a night and day difference once you get it set up. Extremely intuitive, customizable, and overall a very smooth experience. The multitasking feature is incredible, and although i also know that the task bar is simply a OS update and will come to the previous 3 as well, the multiple other revisions made this the no brainer to take the ... MoreAfter seeing the first few renditions of this model i was always super intrigued as i have always loved samsung and the idea of having an all in one phone and essentially mini-tablet all in one workstation that now after using i also know you can use as a portable COMPUTER as long as you have a smart tv to connect to or a hdmi adapter for your phone. I switched from a iPhone 12 Pro Max after using it for about 2 years and this phone is a night and day difference once you get it set up. Extremely intuitive, customizable, and overall a very smooth experience. The multitasking feature is incredible, and although i also know that the task bar is simply a OS update and will come to the previous 3 as well, the multiple other revisions made this the no brainer to take the leap. I also got the s pen case with pen, and for me this isna must-have. I have done everything from writing personal notes, to doodling/sketching, to literally being able to edit photos due to the larger intuitive folding display. Not to mention the features like when youre fullscreen on youtube and half-fold th3 phone it turns it into a splitscreen youtube experience keeping the videos always at the top while you can scroll recommended. Potential cons are compared to competitors i am a power user and grt battery anxiety as i am used to charging cases. That being said, with the right chargers, no matter where you are this phone will get to full leaps and bounds quicker than even my old iPhone managed. Also appreciate the microsoft connectivity to windows which i missed since i made the worst decision of my life and got rid of my note 10+ for an iphone simply due to a little lag and battery life. At the end of the day, its fast charging is incredible, S pen feels great, crease is expected and hardly noticible, or an issue, folding screen feels well integrated, just as has been proven time and time again please be gentle with the inner display as the protector for the folding glass has a relatively poor scratch rating being that it needs to be able to fold. Again, i did my research and know my risks and where to look out for it. All in all, i think this is a great phone and intend to use it for years. I also believe the hardware is beefy enough to stand the test of time. That being said depending how crazy samsung gets with improvements in the following versions i might bite the bullet and upgrade to a newer fold rwhen the time is right. Ill likely have paid it off by then, though. I love this phone and would ABSOLUTELY recommend it to those who just feel like their phones done give them enough. If the deal is there. Also if they ever made the phone more tablet shaped in terms of compatibility with certain gains. Though im sure by the time they did i assume developers will begin integrating better support for these devices because although theyre not a new thing, they are definitely an emerging option in the phone space
I've had the phone for a little over three months. In short, the experience it a little too broken with apps often needing restarts to function properly for the aspect ratio you're currently in. Because of the excellent RAM management, apps opened a few days prior, if opened again but in a different state like an unfolded one, won't correctly size the elements of the app for the way it's currently being used. For instance, Instagram and YouTube will often maintain their UI from the "normal" folded aspect ratio and will often stretch it's elements to fit into the unfolded, wider aspect ratio. This make it feel just like an unsupported/unoptimized app. An overall minor grievance as it's fixed by closing the app and reopening in the state you want your phone to be ... MoreI've had the phone for a little over three months. In short, the experience it a little too broken with apps often needing restarts to function properly for the aspect ratio you're currently in.

For instance, Instagram and YouTube will often maintain their UI from the "normal" folded aspect ratio and will often stretch it's elements to fit into the unfolded, wider aspect ratio. This make it feel just like an unsupported/unoptimized app. An overall minor grievance as it's fixed by closing the app and reopening in the state you want your phone to be used, but it is annoying to deal with on a near daily basis. It does occur with a lot of apps used daily, though Twitter, for example, seems to have no issues. Unsure how much of this will be fixed with future software updates from these companies and/or Samsung.Outside of this, the experience is great! Outside of the frankly outdated concerns over durability, a glass screen protector is all that's needed! A lot of dust and lint among other things will enter the interior screen, likely due to the everpresent gap when the phone is shut closed. Hopefully this can be fixed in the future as the fear of closing the phone with a crumb or something of similar size that's made its way in, can cause the interior screen to break, is always present. Battery life is good! As well as performance. I keep my phone in light performance mode and can't tell a difference between the standard, but can tell with battery life improvements. Durability is good as it was dropped by a careless friend and handled it better than most phones. No cracks and only minor damage to the aluminum frame despite the increased weight. The image produced by the screens are very bright and provides a satisfying image. HDR in Prime Video is finally noticeable and the interior screen has become my primary video watching screen because of its quality. It makes my TV dark and boring by comparison. I believe the durability concerns of the Fold 1 and 2 are long behind us, and I'm excited to see how the overall experience will change in these coming months, especially with Android 13 around the corner.
Hello, everyone! I hope this review can provide some insight and inform some people coming from iPhone or upgrading from another android device. Let's get to it!I would consider myself an uber nerd when it comes to consumer electronics. I'm one of those people who take complete advantage of my carriers upgrade service and move to a new phone every year like clockwork, granted trading in my old device each time. For the last several years I've loyally stuck with Apple's iPhone. This isn't brand loyalty as much as it's personal preference and ecosystem related.

I hope this review can provide some insight and inform some people coming from iPhone or upgrading from another android device. Let's get to it!I would consider myself an uber nerd when it comes to consumer electronics. I'm one of those people who take complete advantage of my carriers upgrade service and move to a new phone every year like clockwork, granted trading in my old device each time. For the last several years I've loyally stuck with Apple's iPhone. This isn't brand loyalty as much as it's personal preference and ecosystem related. The main things I've looked for in a phone up until now has beenbuild quality, OS, photo and video capture quality, display quality, resolution and refresh rate, processor strength, ease of use, battery life, and most important to me, consistency. This wasn't the first, or even the first few times I've switched to an android phone. Prior to my last few iPhone's I'd owned several Samsung Galaxy devices. I always choose the flagship of any make as I don't want to miss out on any potential features at the top of the spec list. For example, being able to capture Pro Raw footage only at a certain sku on the latest iPhone 13 line.This was a HUGE decision for me to switch back to Samsung/Android after having my expectations on iPhone/iOS exceeded for many years at this point. What better way to write this review than sitting here with my Z Fold 4 unfolded, using the split keyboard, allowing me to comfortably write an in-depth review on a mobile phone. The unfolded, tablet-like display is truly a treat to interact with. That's the perfect place to start, considering the novelty of a folding display is what got me thinking to begin with. If you're wondering why I waited until the fourth generation, well, we all know what happens when we adopt brand new technology early. I had to let most, if not all of the kinks be ironed out.Display/Build Quality/S PenThe Z Fold 4's main display (tablet mode) is a 7.6" QXGA+ 2176x1812 AMOLED with 374 Pixels Per Inch (ppi) with HDR10+ and a Variable Refresh Rate of up to 120hz. The VRR display allows the phone to dynamically lower the refresh rate, where it makes sense, to save on battery life. If you're wondering what QXGA+ means, just know it's in between a display resolution of 1440p(QHD) and 2160p(UHD) and has an 21.6:18 aspect ratio. In other words, it's pretty **bleep** crisp. The 120hz refresh rate is immediately recognizable as someone coming from the 120hz Pro Motion Super Retina XDR display on the iPhone 13 Pro Max. For general navigation, web browsing, scrolling, and multitasking they're both near identical in terms of snappiness, but the Z Fold's animations seem to be ever so slightly shorter, edging it out as a win for me in overall responsiveness at my fingertips. We can't leave out what's arguably the most handy part of the Fold's display configuration, and that's the cover display that allows you to easily use the Fold as a conventional, regular sized smartphone, that is if you're willing to overlook the almost obnoxiously chunky feel while in that mode. This is further exacerbated by a particular phone case, but more on that later. The cover display is what you'll likely use the majority of the time you're out and about once the initial excitement for the main display wears down a bit. Both of the Fold's displays get bright enough to easily see what's going on, even in direct sunlight. Text is easily legible, and texting is easy work, especially on the main display.One of the most enjoyable experiences on the near tablet sized display, besides being able to comfortably watch all your favorite content from any streaming service, believe it or not, is the extra S Pen functionality.I highly recommend buying the Samsung Fold Edition Case with S Pen included for $90. Normally, a quality case will run you $50 and the Fold Edition S Pen costs another $50, so that's a $10 saving for something that's almost half the reason you'd buy this phone to begin with. The other upside to this particular case is the satisfying soft but sturdy material that is a pleasure to touch regularly. It also has a protruding hump on the back that holds the S Pen in place, but also acts as a handle that makes the Fold much easier to hold onto. I can't emphasize quite how much this truly improved my experience holding the phone, but I can say, without a dount, I'd NEVER use it any ither way. The S Pen technology in general has come a long way, with very precise stroke detection, as well as being able to detect pressure for light or dark strokes. Personally, as somewhat of a mediocre artist, I truly enjoy drawing and coloring in the built in PenUp app. Handwriting messages and notes in Samsung Notes is also satisfying, and offers up a criminally underused feature introduced with the earliest Samsung Note series phones back in the day, and that's the scrapbooking feature that allows you to drag and drop pictures or excerpts from web pages directly from a browser with the URL embedded into the note. There's tons of hidden S Pen features I highly recommend watching a YouTube video on. Also, keep in mind, you want to purchase the S Pen Fold Edition ($50) or S Pen Pro ($100) because the Note series S Pen has a tip designed specifically for that phone and could damage the Fold display much easier.Panel Type:Fold - AMOLED HDR13 Pro Max - OLED HDRResolution:Fold - 7.6" 2176x1812 @374ppi13 Pro Max - 6.7" 2778x1284 @458ppiFold Cover Screen - 6.2" 2316x904 @402ppiRefresh Rate:Fold - 120Hz13 Pro Max - 120HzPeak nit Brightness:Fold - 1200 Nits13 Pro Max - 1200 NitsSoC/OS/Sound/Battery LifeNext order of importance for me is the Sytem on a Chip (SoC); the processor running the operating system, gaming, multitasking, cameras, and inevitably what it's all wrapped.up in, the User Interface (UI). Samsung has opted for one of themost powerful processors in an Samsung phone, and one that's used in the majority of recent gaming phones, the first generation 4nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ (SM8475). The chip has an octa-core CPU with variable multi core clock speeds, and an Adreno 730 GPU. I chose the base model with 256GB of storage and 12GB of RAM which is the standard across all storage capacity configurations.What this means for real world performance is absolutely breezing throughmultitasking,which is better than ever on the main display, where you can now have three, and technically even four applications open at the same time. With three application windows open, you have one taking up half of the main display vertically, and two other applications, square shaped, taking up the other half of the display. So two squares and one vertical rectangle. Picture having a YouTube video in one square, a text box in another, and Samsung Notes in the vertical rectangle.As far asgaming goes, there's not a single mobile game,whether it be on the Play Store or an external APK that this device can't completely max out at its highest supported frame rate. Games that run at 60FPS are a cake walk and the few supported 120FPS games are a near flawless experience as well.One thing I underestimated was just how much of a delight gaming would be on the large main display and just how many games and applications "just work" and fill up the entire display. Out of 75 or so applications I've tested on the Fold, only one of them had to be manually adjusted to fill the entire display, and even then, it somehow just magically knew how to translate into the display's odd aspect ratio.Unfortunately, Samsung's arguably most interesting phone has only received Android version 12L, while some of the other latest Android devices have received the brand new Android 13. I imagine this wouldn't matter as much given Samsung is still opting for itsproprietary secondary overlay UI, One UI 4.1.1, which is likely necessary to tie in the seamless multitasking and S Pen features, as well as some other niche features like DeX. I won't get into DeX much in this review because it's an impractical feature if you ask me, allowing for a user to use their Fold somewhat like a laptop. "Google it."Hands down, one of the best features of this device is the extremely reliable and consistent fingerprint reader built into the side power button, below your volume rocker. I am truly blown away by how fast an unlock is. There's also a fairly quick and somewhat consistent facial recoginition unlock that you can use in conjunction with any other unlock method, if that floats your boat.
