Legitimately in my opinion I believe if they can't manage to fit a larger battery inside these flip devices, that they should go with a processor that draws less power. The fact is that many people and especially the target audience for a device like this, aren't going to see a huge performance difference between a Snapdragon 888 and a Snapdragon 778. The gains in battery though would be hugely noticeable.

Or they should produce two different types of Flip phones. one with top of the range Snapdragon and the cheaper one with 778+ ( like the one in the newly launched Motorola Edge 30 ). For most people we don't need the fastest processor. We need a phone with a reasonably fast chip like the 778, good battery and good signal reception

i just got my z flip 3 yesterday and after messing with a few settings and optimizing my battery, it lasted me 12 hours before it reached 15%. when you take the time to do that stuff and take care of your battery, the battery can last you a decent amount of time without needing a full charge

I agree somewhat - I don't like the thought of having to lose functionality as a trade off for longer battery life (Brightness, always on screen, higher hz, bluetooth always on etc) when I already have to do some of these things on the S22 ultra. But I do really like the look of this phone, and if I had an office job that could facilitate me charging at any moment during the day I would have jumped on one. S22 Ultra for the next 2 years, and hoping flip battery tech is improved by next upgrade time. Enjoy your device :)

I've had this phone for 8 months now. I had all iPhone for the last 8 years, but wanted to flip because I'd grown sick of how massive phones are now and wanted something that fit in my pocket without bothering me. It's been fantastic for that. The 2 massive hangups I have are the battery and the how hot the phone gets when you use it for as a hot spot or play games. I'm surprised he doesn't mention that. I have to leave it on low battery mode to get through the day and I avoid playing games so that it doesn't feel like my phone will burst into flames lol. I still like it, but I am considering going back to apple just for battery life.

Ive had my Zflip 3 for a couple months as well and I love it! I would say, I really wish the battery life was better because its always so low and yes you can optimize it but its like, why have a great screen with an awesome refresh rate just to lower it. Thats like getting a ps5 to play ps3 games. I love the portability and one thing you didnt show off here was the fact that you can use the camera from the from without opening your phone or you can keep it bent so it stands up on its own and take a timing photo. Its honestly one of my favorite phones.

Have had the fold 3 for about 3 months. Sell phones for a living, on my phone a lot at work. Usually have about 40% at the end of my shift, charge it on my way home and am good for the rest of the day. Not optimal, but totally worth it to be able to show customers pricing on a reasonable sized screen.

I totally agree with you on the side finger print sensor. All phones should have it. Had high hopes for the Flip4 but it looks like it will be a minor upgrade to bring the price down. Thanks for your updated review long after the initial splash. I've never used a case and mine is pristine. Too beautiful and strong to cover. Keep it slim.

I posted this comment elsewhere but thought it would be relevant here too. I was always concerned about the screen. My Z Flip 3 screen didn't crack or dent, but the layers (protector, ultrathin glass) started separating near the right hand side of the hinge. Samsung repaired it under its manufacturers warranty, free of charge. Phone is as a good as new. Their after care is pretty good. I do think that durability needs improving on the next iteration, but Samsung are really trying to keep their Flip and Fold customers happy, so this "gimmick" can one day become the norm. Sure the technology is new, but I still remember when a mobile (cell) phone used to be the size and weight of a small brick, with about 30 minutes of battery life. Tech revolutions have to start somewhere and I'm glad to be an early adopter and ambassador for this new tech.

@M.hamza Alzein I wanted to switch to the flip 4 mostly because of the invmcreased battery life. The delivery failed and after six Werkstatt of Diskussions with DHL and Samsung Support the contact was cancelled and at least I got my money back. Because of a very attractive trading offer I switched to the s22 and I am now looking what the Flip 5 may bring to the table. My problem with the Flip after 12 months was the screen cover which got loose at the hinge. I renewed it, which was easier as I thought but this is definitely an issue.

I had all of those phones too and also had relatives that had the same Exynos as me and they never complained. I think overtime they optimize the Exynos phones via updates and they also seem to push out updates faster than SD variants. Also unlocked bootloaders vs locked ones on SD so clearly Samsung doesn’t care that much for the SD variants. Most people probably call them weak because they game worse than SD,but that is due to game optimization.

I've had the Flip 3 for 11+ months now, and feel nearly exactly as you do. Obviously, I'm watching closely as the unpack of the 4 is only days away, and I've taken advantage of Sammy's trade-in program the last two years. I've been leaning towards sticking with the 3, as the incremental upgrade of the 4 (so far) appears to possibly not warrant the time/hassle/$$$....but since my Flip 3 developed a Tic Tac sized air bubble in the factory top screen layer just today, I'll be leaning more towards going with the 4, even though I think this bubble situation would still be covered by the factory warranty....at least for another coupla weeks.

I've had mine for 8 months and its such a game changer! I will not get any other phone now. Absolutely hooked! I ended up buying a Spigen Tough Armor case and it feels even more protected. Even dropped it a few times and it's held up. My ONLY negative comment on it is that over time and use, the middle crease of my screen protector (protector, NOT the screen) is starting to crack. I feel this is an easy fix, and I do have a subscription to get free repairs with my carrier so I'm hoping they'll be able to replace the screen protector, as it is a unique type since it's bendable. I can still see through it alright bit it's noticeable when I run my finger over it. My battery life seems to be just fine for me, I'm not on it 24/7, and when I am, like if I'm gaming, I'm next to a charger 🤷‍♀️ My camera on the front has been super convenient when I'm recording myself because I can just fold my phone, turn on the front camera so I can see myself in "selfie mode" through the front screen and I can easily record. Highly recommend!

I've been using my Z flip 3 for a little over a year now, and the only issue I have had is with the factory screen protector. It's started to crack along the seam. I ordered a two pack of replacement protectors, and then I'll be good for another year. That way I'll get the Z Flip 5 when it comes out.

there junk going on over a year now and the middle where the screen bends when folding eventually pulls from the actual screen (not the protector) and it starts turning black from the middle and working it way around your screen. currently cant do anything that is on the top of my screen.

to me, if the outer display would cover one half of the phone, it would be perfect. Opening Spotify to switch playlists, following google maps to go to an address, quickly replying to a text on the go, and showing your boarding pass in the airport could be actions that don't require opening the phone. Maybe in a couple of iterations, we could see something like that.

Seeing OSRS on the outer display made me laugh pretty good. I had a preorder flip3 but after a couple months I switched to a fold3. I thought that for my use case it would be beneficial to have that small barrier to entry so that I used my phone less, but it turns out my workflow involves pretty constant contact with coworkers, and flipping the phone open to read their messages that are longer than a short quote really got in the way. plus the battery life, I couldn't make it through an 8 hour work day without plugging in, it led to serious battery anxiety. got the Fold3, all issues addressed.

I've had my Flip 3 for about 9 months now as well and my screen protector started to peel at the fold. I open this phone with two hands. I don't flip it open like in this video. I take care of it and the protector still lifted. To repair it, the shop needs to have a special machine to install the protector. You can't do it by hand. Samsung will replace it only once for free. That has been my only problem and only complaint. Other than that I love this phone but I'm seriously thinking about trading it in on a S22+ or a Pixel 6 pro.

I've had my z flip 3 since the end of September 2021. Used it for that year with OEM screen protector but have since removed it since January 2022. The screen is amazing without a screen protector but downside is that it's prone to micro scratches very easily. Not only that, I have scratches in the crease as well so sometimes they can be disruptive and an eye sore but overall not a deal breaker IMO. I have used this phone as my main and I'm treating it just like any other phone I've had, no babying it. I have had ZERO TECHNICAL ISSUES 😁 great phone overall, Samsung did NOT disappoint in the build quality department. 👏

And then a few weeks ago my phone had some sort of malfunction with the motherboard where it just shut off completely without booting back up whenever I closed the phone. Turns out this happens a lot to these phones. I just had to trade it in for a standard s22 because I don't want to have to deal with issues like this with an expensive device. End of day.
