[SAMSUNG GALAXY Z FLIP 3 REVIEW]
Twenty years ago, it was tough to find a mobile phone in the US that wasn’t also a flip phone. Ten years ago those flips went out of style as the smartphone skyrocketed to mainstream dominance. Nearly two years ago, Motorola blended the two categories with its RAZR reboot. And today, Samsung has brought its own version of the neo-retro clamshell phone down to a price more palatable to more people. I’m Michael Fisher, and … I think I can finally say this: the flip phone is officially back. This is the MrMobile Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 Review.

I know my camera samples were kind of limited on this video, folks - if you want to see more from the Z Flip 3's camera, check out my friend David Cogen's video of our trip to Governor's Island, over at TheUnlockr: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bn6cqqB6fs2Sd5I

[@MarkStudent]

No worries! For what it's worth, I'm not at the point where I want any flip phone. But I love what this phone means for them. A reasonable price like this makes things like "not the best" cameras and "not the best" battery life more than acceptable, because you're not paying for those things. You pay for the experience and $1000 is absolutely worth it.

[@TheMrMobile]

@@MarkStudent Well said; I agree.

[@ANINDYA-001]

Now again phones are fun!!! Hopefully we will see again Nokia bringing back those crazy phones (wish). Still my Nokia 7.2 is also fun with the power button led!

[@TechDove]

@@MarkStudent that's exactly what I tell people, you're not buying these devices for their camera prowess, you're buying into the opportunity to be part of the foldable future, to stand out and to experience what life was like (sorry for the plagerism Micheal but I just can't help myself) when phones were fun 😁

The reaction from the guy at the coffee shop/restaurant after seeing the Z Flip honestly put a smile on my face, very rarely do people notice any piece of tech like a phone in public like that!

[@TheMrMobile]

It's amazing how often I get stopped in public thanks to the Fold / RAZR / Flip. I love it.

@@Tommy-qe6fh No, the seam in the middle of the screen has held up with no issues. Battery is my only complaint, it’s mediocre. But if you can get over that it’s an amazing phone. At this point I would likely wait for this year’s refresh which will likely fix the issue, along with a better camera.

[@manthe3711]

We shall see. Let's see the long term review first. Don't let the market term "ultra thin glass" fool you, the screen is still plastic.

[@shakerCh]

well they kinda are, camera and battery compromised are due to the lack of space, although camera it's also to save costs

[@kaitlyn__L]

@Akeelzzz the new screen protector is made of PET, the same plastic as soda and water bottles. You can’t really damage those with a fingernail either.

[@kaitlyn__L]

Well, the small battery is due to being a foldable. One could argue the weaker cameras are due to the extra packaging requirements too. But you’re right it’s not “the outside screen is useless” or “dirt gets in the hinge” or “where’s the fingerprint reader”.

I use an iPhone 12 Mini until tomorrow when I go to my local t-Mobile store to use my Jump plan early on a Z Flip 3 in black. I'm super excited to use it as I am a best buy employee and have messed with a few of our display models. I'm not a Samsung person but this phone might just be the one for me.

since you haven't used android in so long, spent an hour on youtube and watch as many tips and tricks videos for the flip 3. android and especially samsung ui has changed A LOT. i have been using the flip 3 for a couple weeks now and i love it. my two minor complaints are battery life isn't great, but no where near as bad as the pixel 4 and i wish there was expandable storage.

[@blablablablabla9859]

[@rahmansallehin]

@@raichu512 true. by having whole screen, it would reduce the number of times the phone flip open.

@@rahmansallehin then what's the use of having a flip phone if you avoid it that much?

[@rahmansallehin]

@@reimati because the number of flips can withstand is 200,000 flips according to samsung. by having full screen at outer shell, you can reduce the numbers of flips; and at the same time, expand the lifetime of the phone. remember, the glass is still the same as the first generation.

I'm honesty interested in the innovation which samsung is doing and R&D to fold the freakin glass.
