    The fact that you mention how the smaller screen keeps your phone from distracting you is really appreciated! Not something you’d hear anyone else mention - it’s easy to get lost in specs and performance rather than talking about how the experience of using the phone is.

    I like Samsung’s thinking with the Z Flip series. It’s not focused on specs, it’s just for casual users that also want a phone with a nice design. As Arun has said before, it’s a fashion-focused phone. That’s why it has its Bespoke Edition to make it yours (although there’s only 75 combinations, but it’s still a nice option).

    As a person who has and adores his Z Flip 3 I can see where Samsung has improved with the Flip 4. It's not much to really justify an upgrade as at the end of the day I don't really use my phone more than the basic needs of calling and texting the use of social media and streaming platforms. I love the idea of a modern Flip phone and hope many others will switch soon to it or maybe even the Fold. Now the one thing I will tell many who are planning or maybe even made the switch is that you need to be careful. After nearly a year of having my Flip 3 I noticed significant major scratches were the phone folds. At first I thought it was the screen protector which it was but now it's happening to the main screen also. Overall the product is amazing and I would not switch it for anything else but would like to see if they improved on that.

    1. the phone was free from a trade-in deal with the wireless company. She turned in her old S10 and got a spanking new Flip 4. What's not to like? Right?
    2. In her professional world where almost everyone sports an iPhone, the Flip4 stands out like crazy. She's a teacher, so even the kids line up to take a peek.

      It's working the same as first day - i.e. it does have overheating issues where it throttles during intense operations - camera can get slow taking photos because of it.
      Hinge physically seems just as stiff - no complaints - and I've dunked it under water, no water damage.
      The plastic screen protector which can be replaced is slightly scrapped up and in the corner of the fold you can see a small air gap - it may or may not grow, don't know yet as it only recently appeared. Replacing the screen protector will fix it.
      I've dropped it number of times and traveled with it across the world. I wish for a better battery life.
      I also wish for better cameras.
      But I just love the form factor and it's so easy to prop it for calls and photos - I am planning to upgrade to the next flip because of that and hopefully there will be some improvements.

      @cactusjack5036 Hey, haha, I never expected to follow up. The Flip 4 I had for a year, and it went well. Travelled across Europe and even to Japan. For Flip 4, the screen protrector started peeling in the middle after about 7 months. Replaced it for free under warranty before trading Flip 4 for Flip 5 last year. Cooling is much better on Flip 5 as well as the performance is more stable as a result. Still, cooling and battery leaves a bit to be desired, but it's worth it for me. With Flip 5 I tried to be just as violent as I was with Flip 4 (swinging it wildy open with one hand back and forth as a stress toy) but after 2 months the middle screen went black and unresponsive. I put it in warranty, and they fixed it in 20 working days - delayed due to waiting for parts, apparently. Since the fixing, no more problems like that have arisen, but I stopped being violent with it. Also, for Flip 5, the screen protector doesn't start peeling off after 7 months at all - it's solidly on. And with Flip 5, I have travelled much of Europe too. In August, I will trade this in for Flip 6.

    My main concern and what is preventing me from getting that phone is the long term durability of the screen. I remember hearing on the Z Flip 2 how screens were getting a visible crease in anywhere from a few months to a few days of normal usage. If I got that on my phone it would annoy me constantly and I'd never stop noticing it. So I'm not going to buy a folding phone until these kinds of issues can be fixed, and although they've mostly been fixed from what I can tell, mostly is not enough for me. I'd love to see more innovation from samsung though since this could be a great new market for companies to get into.

    I've always love the new innovative ideas samsung has done with this phone, the design and unique cool technology this phone has. My only concern with this type of foldable screens are the crease. I work as a repair tech and repaired Z flips. The most common issue is a black line of dead pixels along the crease of the screen. Long term the screen will start having issues which is unfortunate because I want one so badly but, I believe the technology for the screen is just not there yet.

    I can’t help but think that videos like these are such happy fairytale feeling expressions of creativity that they almost push you towards buying the phone. All the cinematic shots, outdoor clips, using props, clever graphics et cetera make these videos so far removed from reality it’s like almost watching an advertisement or a short movie. Reality is nothing like what is shown in this review~advertisement. Videos like these are perfect for inducing this amazing feeling of admiration almost reaching FOMO levels. This is what pushes people to spend money they don’t need to in order to buy these products. Brands know this and that is why they encourage such reviews and do all the paraphernalia surrounding media events.

It’s the subtle undertones that affect the viewer subconsciously. The hyperbolic statements, stresses about the new “features” that the phone gets etc. one has to apply a critical mind to understand that message. Sort of viewing against the grain. It’s almost unintended by the video maker as well.
      I agree that he doesn’t care which phone his viewers buy. But that’s not the point. He and all tech reviewers care about how their videos make you feel. The attempt to make them more than just a bland, factual review makes them advertisement like. He’s not pushing just one phone but everything he reviews. There is no personal insight about the product. Just hyperbole.

To me he is explaining the pros and cons so his viewers can be well informed, and he hyped up the stuff that he enjoys about the product because he enjoys it, not because he wants to sell us on it or make us feel a certain way, but just because he enjoys it. Sure there may be some subconscious want to convince us to enjoy it too, but I don’t think that’s a heavy influence.
      For instance, he’s always more critical of phone cameras, because he enjoys taking photos and using “gimmicky” features. So if he really hyped up a camera, it’s because it’s exciting to him, not because he thinks that will make us feel a certain type of way

      As a first time investor I started trading with her with just a thousand bucks. my portfolio is worth much more than that now within just weeks of trading with her.

    The fact that you actually close the phone must indicate something in your brain that helps you detach from it a little bit, it actually sounds healthy in a way I feel like I’m a slave of my phone, whenever I get a notification I can’t help myself from looking at it even if I’m busy and then I realize I’ve procrastinated and wasted time for the last half an hour.

    I was actually considering flip series to switch but then when i look up the sparepart prices, which is quite expensive for me... i decided against it, but it still exciting regardless, i hope in the future more improvements means more affordable and reasonable sparepart price as well

    I don't like foldable phones, but I think the Z flip's design is beautiful and kind of minimalistic. I like it way more than the S22 or the iPhones. I'd get one if it was not foldable.

    As for someone who works in Verizon, one thing I have noticed about the z flip which is so common with every customer that comes in with it is that crease in the screen eventually always ends up breaking within the first year or the fake screen protector that they have on always ends up peeling. I would say this technology is just hasn't been that improved by Samsung

    Have a Alcatel A406D. Flip phone. Google assistant, Google maps, talk to text, all day battery goes to 6 days if you turn off Wi-Fi, etc., etc. Twenty bucks brand new from Tracfone. Problem free for over 2 years and saved thousands to boot. Thanks for the comprehensive review. Good info indeed.
