Flip phones: “You couldn’t live with your own failure, where did that bring you, back to me”
😹
U see me everywhere
I know right
Thanos
I ended up getting my Z Flip 3 a few days before the release day since I preordered mine. Holy crap, I never thought just pulling out my phone would gather so much attention at work, at the bar, and out in public. It was weird, but I guess it shows that people do think it's a cool concept. Just different from every other standard candy bar phone that's out there.
Cool!
It's not better than nokia 3310 , right? Nothing could beat it
@@k.akshithasahadevudu1697 physically, no
Exactly
hey how's your phone holding up? looking to jump on the z flip 3 train but a little worried about how the crease holds up with heavy use a year/few years on.
The best thing about filp is that you can make it a gameboy sp
Oh yeah Gameboy SP emulator would work fine
@@aztecwrrior1997 that sounds awful with touch screen buttons. Still have my hyperkin smartboy that I use for a controller on phones.
hell yea
flip phones be like: "I'm back baby!"
Doggo
Dogoo
"hey austin this is the z-flip"

They just need a bigger battery and better volume up and down keys, other than that it's a badass phone.
the phone foking bends in the middle, you cant just put more battery
@@saikatsaha1907 oh but you can, make it thicker
@@SomeBotOfficial I would choose Aesthetics over thick battery phone any day, I don't think any of us use the phone like Austin uses like he uses his flip 3 for everything like work, playing games, so, if he can get a day by from that I don't think it will be an issue for me, the most I spend outdoors is like 10 hours, it will go by easily
@@SomeBotOfficial how would you feel to hold a chunky ass flipping phone around lol
@@CucumberFoam idk bill gates, how does it feel to have an army of Thai hookers?
Austin: I bought my cellphone with my own money.
Me: what a brave man
3 videos without a break, nice , you helped me get through quarantine.
Bro Quarantine is over lol😂
@@slurples149 not in Australia
@@justanotheryoutubechannel oof
@@justanotheryoutubechannel how, in Canada were not stuck inside nor do we really wear mask lol
@@slurples149 I’m not Australian but from what I’ve seen in the news they are only importing the Astra-Zeneca vaccine which everyone is refusing to take, so no one is getting vaccinated and covid is still massive there. They also implement lockdowns as soon as the cases climb at all, so they’re on number 8 now with plans for a ninth.
Thank you Austin for all your great video’s I enjoy watching all your content and you really turned me into a pc and tech enthusiasts Thanks
Side note: I also love how Khen brings saltiness regrets and competition to your video’s
bro austin uploading constantly makes me so happy its insane
This man just isn't stopping

@@razer1158 nah he has videos up and shit

The z flip really reminds me of an over engineered galaxy A7 2018, has the same fingerprint sensor, has the same amount of battery, and has almost the same camera setup

I actually got a Z Flip 3 on launch mainly due to how much you always liked them. It's been an amazing phone so far and the battery life isn't even as bad as I expected it to be.
Just replying to say I've only had to send it in to have the screen protector replaced (stupid UBreakIFix stores didn't have any protectors in stock) after 10 months. Still going strong and not interested in the Flip 4.
I find your energy and passion for creating tech videos absolutely invigorating. Thank you for your channel!
"I DIDN'T waste $1000"
Do you even have it anymore
I watched this as my first video on my zflip3 thanks for just reassuring me I made a good choice!
Austins face is so well animated when he speaks
I love the Z Flip 3, and I've been holding off a new phone since the S10 until I found the perfect phone, and the Z Flip is it. It's developed enough and has good specs, pricing is low enough for me to get it at 35 a month for 24 months (Canadian Dollars) which I plan to keep for 2 or more years as long as it works, and the half folded has many uses for me, and since I use my PC a lot my phones stays on my desk and I can quickly check notifications without unlocking, and it just has that novelty on top of its actual use. The compact design also helps, along with the fact that I won't scratch up my screen in my pocket or desk. Finally, the design, it's just nice, and then all the stuff you said.
3 days, 3 videos, THANK YOU AUSTIN
For those who are wondering: When added all together, the Harry Potter books contain 1,084,171 words.
I don't remember asking but I'll take it 😂
I didn't ask, but thanks for the info
Interesting, no wonder they felt eternal
I see
This man said no tech but book
Phone are fun again as mrmobile says. Thanks to you I'm in the zflip gang, and happy as ever!
I like these types of video. It's literally an honest review that is really informative. 🙌
I remember the satisfaction of flipping the razr open to answer calls and the immediate release of anger by folding it aggressively after a heated call during high school. But I think what's going to be a fun tech is a rollable phone/tablet like the rollable tvs that we have now. It would just look like a modern day scroll.
3 videos in a row,this man is on a roll

@@austinevans sweeeeet I'm definitely watching
@@austinevans 😩🥵😩🥶🥶🥵😩🥶🥵🥵🥶🥶😩😍
Oh shi-
I have large hands, the z fold feels really well when it's either closed or open. I like that it can replace a note and I'm more than willing to get on board later down the line.
Literally been waiting on this video ! I love my Zflip 3 and agree 100% with everything in this video
One aspect that I really like is that I usually pay so much attention that nothing is facing my display when i have multiple things in my pocket.
Now I don't really need to worry about it because the screen is always covered.
It sounds so weird, but it is a huge plus for me!
I'm thining of trading my iPhone for a Flip 3... even though I'm a iPhone user since day one. Just because of that
I really like that’s the videos aren’t all “mystery tech” haha
I’ve been waiting for this video lol great work 👍
I think as a person who used the original z flip, you are the main person to go to for a good review and comparison of the new release. 👍🏿
Even when the Flip 3 is closed, it looks like a modern console. But it does smartphone tasks as well. Amazing how far we've come. Foldable displays? Micro-laptops like this? I don't need a mini SNES or PS1.
Austin is always coming up with informative and entertaining stuff!
Fr
I feel jealous. The flip 3 was your favorite and the 3rd generation is such an improvement in nearly every category across the board. The main gripe I had with the flip 3 was screen brightness, if there were no clouds in the sky I couldn't see a thing.
You are the best
I started RUclips 4 years ago and watching you has been the best 4 years in my life of RUclips. Continue the success🙂
Still mis Hey guys this is Austin 🤣
I changed from my Iphone Xs to the Flip 5g on April and I'm absolutely in love with this phone.
How’s the phone now? Is the screw that bad?? ( the crease)?????
@@GamingGurus002 everything is fine just a little bit of bubble on the right end of the crease, but no damage whatsoever.
Fold 3, Flip 3, Razr 5G, and Surface Duo are the only interesting devices currently out there in a sea of slab. When closed, the Flip 3 looks better than the original PlayStation 4. And the OG PS4 design is gorgeous.
LG Wing too and LG V60 with the dual-screen case which has better aspect ratios vs the Duo for watching movies and web browsing.
P.s. Why the hell are you comparing the Z Flip 3 to a PS4?? 😂😂😂
Love the consistency bro
Can y'all do some testing of the cases for the z flip and fold? I'm curious if the cases that promise shock resistance actually work?
We should appreciate a 3 in a row upload that austins doing
And here I am, waiting for the next This Is video...
Or should I say: This WAS 😓
I loved my Flip 5G, but I'm so glad I upgraded. Every concern (outside of improved battery) was addressed with the Flip 3. I couldn't not be happier.
I been using my flip 3 to watch video in portrait by only flipping it slightly and laying it on its side. Been working well so far. I need to figure out how to do the slide down thing you showed looks useful.
Been watching you since I was 10, this is the first time that you posted a new vid continuously for 3 days ;)
I've been watching Austin since his 2013 PC build
ok bro
I’ve been watching him since he was known as duncan33303.
Having run the Z-Flip for the last year, I adore it, but the nerf to everything else was what broke it. Once it's up to par with the flagships, I'll pay extra for the flip
It's pretty damn close. Man so keep your money saved it might be flagship tier next year or 2
What nerf?
@@LucidLando like, lower camera, processor, etc. In comparison to the s9 i was running the year before
@unmakeyourself well the cameras ill agree with but it has a SD 888 it would slaughter an s9 in processing power
Mihh
Finally! I've been waiting for your review on the flip3. Aside from michael fisher, you two are ones who first trusted and use foldable phones.
Awesome review, I purchased the z flip 3 based on your review and I love it thank you
My sister has the new z flip, its nice but I’m getting the z fold 3! Ive been wanting it sense the 1st fold but was waiting for it to be better and my contract ended right as the fold 3 came out! Just waiting for it to be back in stock lol
Z flip is an interesting phone, but the galaxy fold 3 is what I want.
Nice plastic screen android
Yea they sound cool. But for the price I think I'll stick to my current phone
Its an interesting gimmick at this point.... Pragmatically it is not worth taking all those compromises for a gimmick.
Idk, I'm offered one for free with a trade in, I might just trade in my old iphone and see how it holds up.
I want the gaslaxy fold 4
I bought an Araree Aero Flex case for my Flip 3. It comes in black. So even if I got a different color, it wouldn't matter any way. The black case would just cover the color. Plus phantom black arrives the earliest.
I've been watching you since before the fire at your old house. You've come along way Austin and your drive and passion inspire many. Thank you for doing what you do ❤
A long.
NOT along.
Does it run at high temperatures.
😂🤣😭
I totally agree that it's great to have something exciting going in in phones again. That said, still a gen or two out as a "wise purchase". It's still just "cool". But I agree, the future is gonna flip, but for now, I'll keep my Note 10+.
I really liked this review, you’ve got a new sub! How has the crease held up? The only thing stopping me from buying this phone is the stress fracture in the crease that is being reported, and was rife for the original
Flip / Flip 5G
Sidekey swipe is a feature I missed from my note 8 and 9. Glad it's here for the folding phones at least.
I originally wanted the cream but the more I look at my phantom black Flip 3, the more I realize I made the perfect choice. The previous Z Flips are fingerprint magnets. Matte black is not. Looks so stealthy.
ive had my zold3 for 4 days now, i love it, i dont understand the zflip though it is a cool piece of tech, i just find the fold better suited to my needs.
Yep I agree about the wow factor . Owned the note 10+ 512gb and no one could be bothered.
Changed to a zfold 2 . Till today its a conversation starter and still a head turner . Out right the phone that draws the most attention
Oh boy 3 vids back to back…
You are getting better Austin.
Before watching the video, this is THE review I've been waiting for...from a real long-term flip user
Austin, teach me how to not be depressed?
fr
Step 1. No more linus Pfp
Step 2. Go outside
@@paulcarmi8130 wish that the 2nd option is available with the current situation of my country
The uploading never stops
i die everytime the iphone pro max is referred to as the chungus in all your videos, i hope you keep it up
The issue with all these new "phones" is that the price is too high, they break if you sneeze or fart on it. Sorry, these do not interest me at all. But I do like the review.
That's why you get insurance on it. Keep in mind- for people like me, who are using their phones almost constantly, as our way to communicate and interact with the world- buying a cheap one just seems dumb.
Out of pretty much anything that you could spend $1000 on, spending it on your phone is going to improve your life more than anything else. It's something you're guaranteed to use every single day, for hours. When you put it in that perspective, spending anything less sounds kinda dumb.
If you buy a cheap phone just because you don't think expensive phones are worth it, you're making hours of your everyday life a worse experience for the next few years you own it. Yes, it can "do all the same things," but spending $600 extra is not much at all compared to what you get out of it.
You don't even spend remotely the same amount of time in a car as you do on your phone, so why aren't you desperate to spend as little money on a car as you can? How many people do you think really want to spend $500 instead of $1500 on a used car just because "it still drives me everywhere i need to go"
@@user-xu7rp3kw3z @Lydia Well maybe they need a reliable car and so had to pay more? 🤔 Also who the hell would spend 1k on a phone? You can just buy a phone for like 150 to 200 and that would last you about 2 years if you aren't stupid or if you are really smart then like 4 years, also who wants to pay an extra like 300 for phone insurance for a year when you could just buy a new phone if it breaks or get it repaired for cheap and just sell the broken phone for some money, also if your phone costs 1k then the parts will be like 300 to 600 a piece and the insurance is most likely going to have some clause that makes you pay for the repair anyway.
Buying an expensive phone does indeed increase the quality of my life at least as its much more enjoyable to use. I am more productive on it. It is my money making machine as I work online only. I don't even have insurance on it, I've never dropped a phone. I use cases most of the time. I'm typing this on my $2000 Galaxy Z Fold 2 5G that I paid $680 for Used on ebay. Its more than great. And the screen is in perfect condition. No dead pixels. No worse crease. No problems. No bs. It is that flip phone experience that makes the screen bigger, better to multitask. It's just incredible.
@@RedPMD You can still get big phones for cheap, there are phones that are as big if not bigger for like around 150 - 300 range Brand New with pretty similar specs so the size thing isn't really a point, also what do you even mean by working online only? Like the only thing that springs to mind is Ebay selling or Amazon selling or at worst editing Videos on your phone.
Austin: I didn't waste a grand Master: you have learnt much, but still is a way to go
Tbf, while the screen might get stress cracks from not being as durable as a regular smartphone screen, it was awesome and great that samsung released a service to get those screens fixed easier at the same time
Austin Evan’s being a fan of Donda is kind of a plot twist I didn’t expect
Watching this on my Z Flip 3. Love it and the compromises are worth it. People love seeing this in the wild and I couldn't be happier to fiamlly jump on the foldables train!
even after 7 months now is it still good?
@@dalieur5439 Absolutely. The phone is/feels/looks/works the exact same as it did 7 months ago, I haven't had a single issue with is. And believe it or not, the excitement from answering a call by "flipping" the phone open and "ending" whatever I'm doing by closing the phone is still there just as strong. It just feels so good, the hinge is excellent and idk how to explain it but that sound it makes just make me giggle like a little kid while thinking "man this is so cool" haha. As an enthusiast and tech nerd, I couldn't be happier with it and recommended even more now that I've seen how well it's aged!
@@Sabitar1 thank you so much for your time!!
@@dalieur5439 Any time man. If you do decide to buy it you will not regret it!
samsung is pushing hard on foldables since they know their flagships are loosing to xiaomi's, and their midrage+budget section is significantly worse.
They can push as much as they want.but the portability that the flip creates is god tier
@@timothywhite8130 the flip is really good
im using Xiaomi
only one reason price
@@vkAwesomee I understand that brother. This shit is expensive
FINALLY I've been waiting for this video since the Flip 3 was released 🤣
What is your opinion now on the cracking display problem on the hinge with the flip and now the flip 3? Some people seem to have the problem with their z flip3 already! Mine is still perfect though.
"The Z Flip 3 has terrible cameras."
Me: I can literally fold my phone in half lol
8:19 u saying this is a terrible camera, it's actually good for a foldable phone
I didn't buy it for the camera lmao
Actually camera not bad sometime better than flagship chinese phone this year because camera algorithm samsung lately very good
1:46 ULTTRA thin glass. Great job editors.
austin taught me how to build a pc in the pandemic with no parts! so i got a prebuilt 😂
Austin talking about the party trick, eye-catch appeal made me realize. Is the Z-Flip the modern equivalent of the T-Mobile Sidekick?
When practicing Monkey style pocket sand is essential. Sh-Sh-SHAW!
How about you talk about the fact that the new PS5 runs cooler 😂😂
Just bought myself a z flip 3, thanks for being the deciding factor in my phone buying endeavor!
I have the 1st gen Samsung Galaxy Fold which I really like. I use it at work and it is very handy with the bigger screen, but I also do get a lot of heads turning and people asking me what is that phone.
Dankpods video about the zflip is my nail in the coffin about these flip phones. It’s a cool concept but the fact that that crease gets unbearably ugly after a few months is so unsustainable. This video feels very simpy, like yeah it’s a cool concept but it’s a bad phone after the honey moon phase, atleast in the pervious versions and just feels weird seeing this amount of enthusiasm without knowing what the screen will look like in a few months.
100% agree
After the PS5 new model debacle i don't trust this clown for genuine review
Wdym?
I had the Flip 3 for a little over a week and really did love most of it. But in the end, the aspect ratio of a few of my horizontal apps so was skewed, it was un-usuable and I had to return it :(
So all I would be really using it for app wise would be Spotify, RUclips (primarily listening) maps and texting) would the battery work well with that?
I love when the notification shows up
*"someone liked your comment"* and *"you have a new subscriber"* It always makes my day 💖
Okay
PS5
have the green one two:)) and it really is a pleasure using it :) .... I really hope it last a good amout of time :)
I want to point something that really bothers me all around the web, about its durability and the crease problem!! Some users are experiencing a problem where they some how wake uo the next day and the screen is broken!
I really think its up to how you open the phone..
If you put your finger between the display, and push all the way uo to the crease, and after that you open ..... After time I think that everyone will have the same problem IF they open the phone as I described!
The crease is the heart of the flip and in any way DO NOT PUSH WHEN OPENING THE PHONE!
IMAGINE A SCENARIO where you have longer nails.
You put your finger between the screen, you slide all the way up to the crease WITH YOUR NAIL ...and damage is on the way :))
Treat it well, open it by holding the sides and I think you are good to go :)
Good review !
Sorry for my bad english I hope you understand
I’ve been waiting so long for this video
The FitnessGram™ Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. Ding A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. Ding Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, ding

omg kleeee
xD my highest score is 89 on that
I basically joined the z flip gang just because of you... And man do I LOVE IT !!!!
Austin has been spoiling us with these daily uploads
I love the flip but as someone who spends much time in dust or sandy areas, I hope future gens fix that
Lol currently watching this on my flip 3 🤣 so far I love it, super nice that the foot print is halved in my pocket now, really missed that from the og flip phones
Love your honest opinion on this man!
The overheating issue is interesting, something I didn’t think about. But if you think about it, isn’t that kind of a an advantage since the battery won’t deteriorate as fast because of the heat?
Can say, after a year it is a BIG issue, after alot of overuse it lead to hot pixels and eventually the screen did start to lift and bubble slightly
You were the first tech youtuber who made me watch another video of your channel until finally ended up watching more than 5 videos..... Yeah, that's how fast I became your subscriber.....
Ive been watching you since 8 years and oh boy youve changed
For a moment I actually thought about getting a robot vacuum cleaner just out of pure laziness. Then I snapped out of it and decided to get a new 4k tv. Priorities, man.
Austin I built your old $600 CPU build like 10 yrs ago and still using it today. Same mobo just changed gfx card and added another sad.
I'm now choosing to buy the z flip 3 and the iphone 12 pro max which is better?
