  • Today I discuss the 5 MAJOR issues and PROBLEMS I am having with the Z FLIP 5! Don't get me wrong - it's an AMAZING phone BUT there are SOO many different things that are lacking OR altogether NOT working and broken?!?! What do you think? Do you have the same issues as me OR maybe different problems I didn't mention?

    Want to see 5 AWESOME features of the Z FLIP 5?
    • Z FLIP 5: HIDDEN FEATU...
    With all the NEW features the Z FLIP 5 brings to the table, there HAD to be a TON of corners cut especially to fit everything into the slim form factor to keep things portable. Although these "compromises" were OKAY on the Z FLIP 3 - 2 generations later and things are starting to feel SUPER laggy - especially when compared to the HEAVYWEIGHTS IN ALMOST THE SAME PRICE RANGE (s23 Ultra, and the iPhone 14/15) - so maybe its become harder to tolerate the shortcomings?
    So make sure to WATCH before you buy!

    After using a 2006 Samsung flip phone with no camera I finally decided to upgrade this fall after I received a notice that 3G was going away next year and the family had nagged me about upgrading for years. Never have liked the large modern smart phones, saw this one in the store and no other would do. Of course my brain is a bit fried what with ALL THE STUFF it has and does. I could delete over half the apps and never miss them. But then, I'm 72 and it's a different world today.

      I had flip phones too but their cameras were so mediocre you may as well say they don't have one. A lot of phones back in those days also did not have micro USB but instead needed a bizarre cable that only works with that device. If you ever lost that cable you may as well throw the phone away. They usually had some sort of connector that you would not see on anything else. Then sending a text from one can be annoying if it is long at all. You can imagine I don't miss those old flip phones. The ones I had did not run Android or anything that most people would be familiar with and there were never any apps for the Brew OS they usually came with other than only the basic apps. It seemed like everyone hated them and would not develop an app for them.

    With the tap feature I never had an issue with how it scans (I even have a really thick casing on it), if anything it was more convenient cause I didn't have to open my phone and was able to access it from the front screen. Holding it was so much easier than it being open and there were a lot of times where it was scannable from a distance so it really didn't need to be entirely flat. And with the scratches, just get a case bro lol. I agree with the keypad tho, it literally covers the entire message screen so I don't even know what I'm typing when replying to something.

    I was debating between S23 and Z Flip 5. The former has better battery life, and the latter has gotten some reports of thermal throttling when pushed (multitasking with 2 windows and other stuff running). They cost roughly the same on Samsung right now for base models. But I notice trade-in value of Flip 5 can be as much as $1000, whereas for the S23, it's about $800. For someone who plans to trade-in next year, this seems like a factor to consider. I'm not sure if I'm missing anything about the trade-in advantage of the Flip 5 though.

I read alot of review about the z flip and alot of the negative reviews are from peole who switch from a ultra to a z flip and then they get dispointed. Meaning most people who own an ultra will be disappointed.

    My major problems was that the screen protector broke right in the middle after two months. I replaced it (twice!!). Whenever the outside temperature sank below -0 degrees Celsius the screen protector kept rising from the display as I had it opened. A really irritating problems as times. As I was on the toilet and held the phone at literary 3 decimeters from ground level I accidentally dropped it on the floor face down. That was the fatal blow that destroyed the screen.
    I really love the idea of a flip phone. It's small and easy to carry around. I didn't care as much about the specs. The main reason (obviously) was the flip feature. I don't think we are there just yet in that technology aspect. So I'll wait for some years, until the flip 10 is out before buying one again.

Although I had no injury or misuse, apparently, the rubber seal at the fold was failing. Currently in a dispute with my mobile phone provider due to them pushing another color phone on me for the warranty.

While it is possible to be a defect in the hinge and/or its surrounding components that can cause display damage on the flip devices, it most commonly happens from liquid damage, dropping the phone, or similar physical damage to the phone.

    I am using a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 which is almost 5 years old and it's time to upgrade to a newer Samsung. My faithful Galaxy Note 9 has an S-Pen, the functionality of a Secure Folder (where I store all my banking apps and sensitive notes) and most importantly an external Micro SD card slot. The intrinsic memory of my Galaxy Note 9 is just 128 GB but I use an external memory card that gives me an additional 786 GB of extra space.
    The Z Fold 5 and the Galaxy S23 Ultra both have a S-Pen (a discrete S-Pen in Z Fold 5 is the biggest disadvantage I think, mainly because I tend to misplace small things). Could you please tell me which phone, the Z Fold 5 or the Galaxy S23 Ultra has Secure Folder and a slot to accommodate an external Micro SD Card to enhance the storage capacity? Thanks so much!

      That’s because it’s a stupid concept. It sounds fun, but you cannot make a screen that folds like paper and use it over and over again and expect it not to fail. It’s simply not logical, Samsung has never been able to make a foldable screen that does not have this issue. Phone is still relatively new and already hearing people with comments about how it’s breaking.

    My Z flip 5's inner display broke within less than 3 months of usage. I did not drop it, I didn't abuse it (like keep opening and closing). But it just broke and slowly turning into a black screen. I had to survive with the exterior screen for whole 2 months (thank god I got good luck installed and have most of my apps available). But reason why I had to wait so long is because Samsung's a huge mess and took over 1 month to get my parts. Even after they have the parts, they still fail to contact me, and I also wasn't able to reach them through phone because they never pick up (was on hold for hours). In the end, I did get it repaired for free because it's still under warranty. But the experience was horrible and I can say I'm am expert at using the exterior screen now.

    i have never had a problem with the tap feature.
    i came from s21 ultra. i do agree the camera sucks in terms of picture quality and responsiveness of it. thoght i wasn't going to bother me but it kinda do
    battery life is shorten from a normal full day use. but it charges pretty fast, so it makes up for it. and handy power banks are everywhere
    no comment on dex, i never use them. i have laptop and computer for that
    display keyboard? i don't mind spending a second to open up the phone. i mainly i like that i can do more things without having to open the phone when i'm in the middle of work

    Im 4 months in to z flip 5 life. I would say there are only two problems with my z flip 5: 1. The camera, which isnt a problem because im not really trying to take great photos, but if i was, this isnt the phone for it. 2. While using wireless Android Auto, my phone gets really warm. Other than that, having had phones from every maker, this is probably my favorite phone ever.

  • @yanniknoah
    @yanniknoah 5 месяцев назад

    my z flip 4 fell from a bench (so not that high) on the ground and the hinge got bent or smth and the phone only opened half way after that. Eventually there was a white stripe across the top screen, then the top screen stopped working altogether and there is a black spot spreading on the bottom screen. All of that from one minor fall that almost any other phone could take easily. I'm trying to get my data and will send it back, i'll probably try to exchange it for a different phone since this will most definitely happen again (the same thing happened to my aunt who has the z flip 5)

      This! It's not a flagship series phone so you can't expect flagship features. I switched from the iPhone 14 pro max and tbh I don't think I'd go back although I do miss the size of the iPhone keyboard. However the flip 5 is hands down the best just with the customization options alone. Pictures are pretty decent

      @@claudiaceceliaMartinez Still love this thing! I switched from years of iPhones as well to this as I was bored and got tired of the huge max slab taking up my thigh lol I could never go back now. People talk trash without even owning it. For me it's been durable, good photos, decent battery life that gets me through the day, amazing at the gym because of it's size and front screen, customization, android notifications are superior, it's fast, smooth and awesome screen, selfies with the fam in flex mode and the NFC closed always gets me a comment out of strangers lol.
      I use Gboard for the keyboard and you can resize it to whatever size you want!

      NORMAL useage the battery is fine. Charge it at some point when it's low. If you're using a phone and draining the battery multiple times a day then chances are you use it wayyyy too much. 7 hours screen on time is just unhealthy.

    5:00, yes you are exagerating because I use Samsung Pay on my Flip 5 all the time and it doesn't need to touch the reader. Obiously you need to use the bottom part of the phone (note: the top part is the outer screen, yes, I'm being sarcastic). 5:15 Lesson here: USE A CASE! And, btw, that's true for any phone. !0:39 No, the Razr + (or 40 Ultra) is not any better to type on the cover screen. I owned that phone and sent it back. I kept the Flip 5. But I do agree with you that the outer screen takes some getting used to for replies and it's only good for short messages. All that said, I enjoyed your video very much.

    Razr plus is better then the z flip 5. Number 1 it has a feature like DeX called ready for and it runs 100 times better then DeX. 2 if say you are running a game and 8 gigs of ram is just not enough your screwed with Samsung but the razr plus has a feature you can turn your 8 gigs of ram into 10 gigs of ram. The razr lets you sacrifice 2 gigs of storage and turn it into 2 gigs of ram. It's called ram boost. So while the razr ships with 8 gigs of RAM like the flip 5 the razr can sacrifice 2 gigs of storage to boost your ram up to 10 gigs of ram. That's something the flip 5 can't do. So with ram and features the razr plus will have a slightly longer shelf life then the flip 5.
