I traded in my note 10+ and for easy of mind I bought note 10 small variant just incase I didn't like, I barely touch my note 10 except for car ride because it is my music source. The price is high, but all the cons many mention, I have no problem with what they said and it's also better then many think. This video actually depicts many ways I feel about it... the cameras aren't the best no not at all, but they still are very good and great in other cases. UDC is poor but service it's purpose well... maybe not for selfiers, but selfiers still have options of main camera. Battery works very well for me, though many complaints. I get through most my day with 20ish 30% batt life about 7pm . I like slab phones, and I like big screens, I have big hands, but I dislike big phones. But this to me, just me here, feels like small phones again, thick a little, but this coming from someone who used 05 Nokia and blackberry push2talk phones 😆 those boys was thick. It's definitely one that has to grow on you but once does, it's hard to use other phones not 7.6 inchs. Front screen narrow... but tall and make good for social scrolling and checking stuff.

The 2nd generation was actually really close to this one, with the only things really missed being the water resistance, stylus support, and memory options. The 1st generation was an outright prototype; the thing went floppy after so many folding cycles, and the front screen was tiny. There was even rumor that the 3rd generation would be cutting down on the front screen to something more similar to the 1st generation, but it looks like that didn't happen. The 3rd generation has even got phone cases (with S-pen slots!) & screen protectors available from the shelf at physical retailers, a little step toward mainstream-ification that was missing from previous generations. The flex mode on these phones was honestly an Easter egg to discover, but I also use it in a REVERSE flex mode at times by using the front screen, turning it to landscape mode (hinge on bottom), setting it down screen-up, then unfolding it to about 45 to 60 degrees so the front screen is still on but facing upward at an angle where I can look down on it comfortably without needing any kind of stand. The width of the front-screen landscape mode makes it niche to certain applications, but I like to keep it like this for side-use of the device, especially if I expect I might be moving it around a bit. It's kind of a stand-free mode where the phone's hinge becomes its own stand by locking in place. The only outlying concern I have now is how to get this thing serviced, as it seems my only option right now is to keep it under full device-replacing insurance. That's not a problem with the phone itself, mind you, but finding an effective repair service isn't an issue with normal slate phones. My last slate phone lasted 7 years (true to its manufacturer-stated lifetime), and this one looks like it can be the next to ride out all the weathering as long as I keep it insured and the software requirements stay manageable.

last time I looked samsung did not give you a an s pen in a silo , a front screen that works with an S pen , a headphone jack, an SD card , a notification light, a charger in the box even a cheap set of wired buds in the box. And the fold still has that gigantic ugly crease down the middle , and it still Costs a queens ransom. Sorry , I just don't see the attraction. but to each his own.

I am glad that I took the plunge to get the Z Fold 3. Still wish Samsung would put in a few other options. 1.A storage slot for a smaller S Pen if possible. I am on 3rd case for the phone. Since so many cases don't know what to do with the SPen and would like to see an added kickstand that doesn't interfer wireless charging. 2. Want to see more modes for the camera brought back such as the Sunset mode. My concerns are minor and am really enjoying the total concept of a phone and tablet in one unit. Keep up the good work Samsung. Google, and Microsoft.

Not ready yet, is all I can say for now. At least for regular consumers. Being rich is a double edged sword because you get things first but you also get the problems of first generation products. I see this foldable phone technology to be fully baked and ready for regular consumers in 2 to 3 years from now. And Samsung is smart for trying it first.

I am an iPhone user as my daily driver but bought the Fold 3 and love it although I use it mainly as an ultra portable tablet. I admit I do not use it to its potential (mainly because I am not as familiar with Android and then there's the Apple 'walled garden'). I admire Samsung for pushing the limits and accepting that sometimes they make mistakes (Note 7 & Fold 1) but they admit it when they do and sort it out, the result is excellent products like the Fold 3. .

I tried the fold3 for two weeks from a note9. I was moderately impressed but I felt it was way overpriced and I did not like the fact that the stylus has to be put into a case which made the phone not fully flat on the table surface. Then I noticed the stylus was different and the one that was fully compatible with it costs 125-150$. I thought the costs was over the top.

Only someone who owns the phone will believe this is not a paid infomercial. It's that good. Reviewers who try to present the negatives of the phone always come across as nitpickers. Even the ridiculously high price can be justified when you realize that it is at least two devices in one and the tablet mode is cellular service enabled which usually bring a premium price. Deals can be found especially this time of year and Samsung usually has generous trade-in deals and incentives to lighten the cost.

I only bought my Z fold 3 because my brothers and sister bought one and they're not better than me (middle child Syndrome at 50...lol). But immediately this was one of the best purchases I've ever made. The large screen is Phenomenal. I'm like many of you I don't think I could ever go back to a regular slap phone. Yeah there doesn't seem to be much difference in the Z fold 4 so I'll probably keep this one until the 5 or 6.
