I've had it for about 4 months now... I still love it. My main 2 gripes are: the battery (it sucks!) and the lack of vertical apps (offiicially) on the secondary screen. Spotify would be awesome just like that. And I gotta agree with him: that "clack!" when you close it... Never gets old! (Specially for old dudes like myself)
How much screen on time are you getting
Im also planning to get one for myself
The battery lasts the whole day with 5 hours SOT. Its very sufficient unless youre playing games or anything heavy.
@@namyasrivastava3512 I mean, it's not DISASTROUS. I wake everyday at 5 and I usually need to charge it around 2-3PM. But I don't get a full day on a single charge. But I gotta say: It's SO fun to use, I always come back to it!
OK WHAT 5 HOURS WHAT YOU EXPECT 1 WEEK BATTERY LIFE
I can recommend you turning off some things so you can save more battery. Drag down the notifications bar and turn off SYNC. Then you could turn off automatic search or I don't know to call it lol. It stops the device searching for nearby devices to connect all the time. May sound basic for some ppl but completely unknown for others and it will make your phone go through the day without issues.
I had mine since August (pre order} , 6 months almost. I love it! the screen still looks good and the battery usually last me a day or I charge it twice a day :3
Really well done. No jokes, to the point and edited just right. I wish more videos went like this. 👍

Potato! Good one as usual Zach...missing your videos on your channels, especially your customization videos...hope you will be uploading soon
I've had mine for 5 months now, and I love it! I will never go back to a non-flip phone. IMHO though Samsung needs to make the following improvements and this would be the perfect phone:
1.) A larger exterior screen. This would make the screen MUCH more usable without having to open the phone for virtually every task.
2.) A better camera. The current camera is good, but it could be better. Also add an optical zoom.
3.) Battery life has been increasing with each generation, but could still stand for more.
4.) A hinge design that is easier to open one handed!! This hinge is pretty stiff.
Totally down for a bigger exterior screen, I saw it done on Oppo flip phone and liked it. I also like how Oppo's fold is more smaller and wider than the Samsung fold. Kinda makes me wish Samsung makes a mini fold lol. I love my zFlip and get compliments everytime! I went with the color blue instead of purple and I'm glad I did because the blue is soooo pretty!!
couldnt disgree more
It's nice to know that it still holds up well after six months. 🐬🐬
just got my flip 4 on Tuesday and i am loving it!
Hey do you recomend to buy it now or wait for z flip 5?
@@dimasbagaskara2827 I'd recommend waiting
Another great review 🐬🐬🐬
Best tech channel on RUclips in my opinion, these videos are always great content
i think i'll wait on the zflip 5!
I own it, had to change the screen once cause green light started to appear and then it became a black line on the hinge that started to spread :\
I really enjoy the phone, love how it fits on the pocket and it's super cute! Takes better pics than my s10+ which I've owned for 4+ years (that's to be expected but still lol), but after that one screen change I really do feel like in a year+ (screen not changing permitted) I might switch to the regular galaxy line again... and perhaps in 10 years or so I could retry a flip
ping ling pong pang ching
I enjoyed the video a lot! 🙃🐬
Great review as usual, what I am really curious about is how this phone is going to age. I don't like buying the latest and the greatest, I prefer holding on to my phones for as long as possible. With the hinge, there's always an unknown factor involved and if I want my phone to last me atleast five years, buying a foldable as they are now is really not the best idea. But I will always be open to the idea of buying one in the future.
I had the same reservation the z4 it supposed to last up to 5 years from what i read and thats if you open and closed it 100 times a day which for me is unlikely? Given the gorilla glass and changes they made it seems they are trying to make it last reasonably long.
Same here! I prefer my phones lasting at LEAST 3 years before buying a new one and the Flip's durability issues puts a dampener on things because I am heavily considering it for its form factor. I hope Samsung continues to reiterate the Flip!
I got a brand new sealed flip 4 yesterday for £570 can't wait to start using it
Ive had the flip 4 screen changed twice in less than 6 months because of the same issue with hinge not opening uniformly or something and it starts with a line down the crease then grows as a blob and engulf the whole screen. Exact same issue, no drops and treated with extra caution, but I swear these foldables arent yet battle ready for daily use.
yup i have the same issue
How much did rhe screen cost to replace ?
Was it replaced by warranty?
You probably touching the crease too much
@@oldschooliron8022 stop making excuses for Samsungs piss poor display on the flip 4
🐬 Great review. Thank you.
🐬 Great review!
I’ve had an iPhone since like 2010, and this has been the first phone to really tempt me away. I want to hold off until I see the z flip 5 this summer, but I might be ready to make the switch 👀🐬
Hi, is the flip 5 confirmed for this summer? I always had an iPhone too but I want to switch but not sure if too or not due to it being so different to iPhone. If a new one is coming out don’t know if to wait now till summer…
I had the iphone 13 but i was too tempted with the z flip 4. It’s great, only thing is the main screen. It damages very easily and hard to find an actual good screen protector. I’ve had my phone for 4-5 months now.
It’s out
Love my Flip3, can't wait for the Flip5 this year 🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬
When will the Z flip 5 be announced?
@@R--. August this year, if it follows the patterns of its predecessors :P
@@Evie0133 Too far, thanks
Great video :) thank you ! just a question what games were two games were you playing at 4:17 and 4:26 thank you
I got my Flip 4 a month ago, well aware of the Flip 5 coming… And I love it. Yes I’ll miss out on a few new nuances with the Flip 5, but I’ll be okay. I didn’t want to wait. And now that it’s been my daily driver. I know I couldn’t have waited… I love this Flip 4. I also have an S22 Ultra. And iPhone 12 Pro… I digress. Z Flip 4 has my heart. Z Flip 5 will be awesome for new users ready when it releases- but when you’re someone like me- you look at the Z Flip 6 leaks, and you know to wait until August 2024. ;)
My phone company offers a upgrade & protect feature.. so I can just upgrade to the 5 or 6… I’m getting the 4 tomorrow.
@@Kayerithwhat company is that?
🐬 great video
What is that lock screen setup? I really like the look of it!
🐬
Love my flip 4!
I've had mine for a few months now. I love it! The only downside is that it's not durable At All🙈. My hinge broke after an 1m drop on a carpet... Safe to say I'm happy I've got a good insurance🤣
Fuckinell 😂 it would probably get damaged if a marshmallow fell on it
(dolphin emoji)
i've wanted the flip z for a long time now and i've been watching review vids all day so i will finally order one!
Great review, thanks. I've had a Flip 4 for about 6 months, too, it's been my primary mobile device during this time, no complaints. That said, I think the camera is the weakest point. I have a Galaxy S10 Lite as my secondary device, a refurblished model I bought 3 months ago, but it's primary for taking photos and video. In any case, everything you spoke of resonates! Nicely produced video
Where did you buy it from s10 lite?
this phone sucks
Ohh how I've missed the flip phones
Got mine in April.
Having issues with the screen protector especially on the fold/crease area. It should be a quick fix but its a nightmare here in the Philippines to just get it fixed and replaced by samsung service centers.
What issue it is? I'm planning to get one next week. 😵💫
@@kielden I had a bubble, but I sent it to Samsung service and they gave it me back in one week, as it was new.
Wanted to ask u which is that theme or launcher u have installed in this phone , that looks soo cool, please share link of that...thank u..
It's really a phone with its own audience.
My first and only experience with this phone is the one being displayed in the stores that sell them.. and honestly, given the amount of times it was handled by strangers might be enough of a hint on what it would feel like to personally use it (physically)..and the experience was awkward lol. The fold isn't smooth, like most hinges i suppose. Actually unlocking and scrolling and whatever on the phone did feel smooth and fast tho. It's honestly too long for portrait and narrow for landscape for my taste. But I understand what you mean that it is a "fun" phone, and I might get too distracted by it HAHA 🐬
mine screen suddenly faulty after 11 months...screen blank intermittenly when open flip and green tint sometimes
I love the Flip 4 it's an excellent phone 👍👏😎
Can my s22 ultra have that ui? how your scrolling open apps? The decks are closer together - is that a setting?
How's the scratches on casing throughout the time? 0-10 how's the scratch proof?
I've had both the Zflip 3 and 4. Both screens had its protective layer crack and peel right where the screen folds. Love the phone. But they still can't get that protective layer right. This all happened in just a few months of normal use.
Same with mine. Fortunately, I have a Samsung Experience center near me and they will change the protector once a year. No other issues with mine.
@@ljacobs357 Unfortunately I don't have any centers that ate able to do that near me. I have to mail in my phone to get it repaired. Leaving without a phone. Samsung should send me replacement phone, but they refused. Was on the phone with them for hours. Won't buy another Flip again until they get their screens right. This is a VERY common problem.
Not had that with mine yet must be heat lifting it maybe.
@jayjay Heat? Lol
No. It's the screen protector they apply just not adhering very well. I don't live in a desert. If you spent a minute researching this you'd notice this happens with many Flip users. They boast about the hinge being durable. But the screen protector is worthless.
Has anyone issues with screen protector delamination? mine did in 6 months for the first time. my flip 3 did it 3 times before the 4 and Samsung promised it would not happen with the 4, also they charged for the last repair. btw, no phone for at least 5 days
I'm getting one next week. But I don't know which color to get. I love how serious the Graphite is but my heart wants to have that Bora Purple. I badly want the frame of the Blue because it's almost Silver. And I want Pink Gold because Gold and Black is perfect too. I just wish they have a White one.
I have Bora Purple because the hinge of the blue one seems silver 🤭
@@CarolinaRodriguez-Misttyc I finally got the Blue one. Hahaha
@@kielden it seems beautiful
@@CarolinaRodriguez-Misttyc it is! I didn't appreciate it until I saw it in person and immediately get it instead of the Purple. The purple is nice too but I guess I can't carry it. 😅
any idea what will be the flip 5 looks like ?
Only problem with mine is the screen protector at the right hinge has created a bubble. But Samsung will put a new one on once a year.
From 3 to 4, It's going to keep bubbling.
Once a year? I've heard it was once in their life...
I love my Flip 4. The only thing is the main screen, i cannot find a good screen protector. My main screen keeps getting little scratches and tiny dents. 😢 I’ve already gotten the free replacement but it continues to get random damages out of no where.
Do you need Samsung Care plan to get that free replacement?
Yes you do. After a second time they charge $60.
I've been really in the mood to switch it up in the phone department but I also want to wait until my S20 FE isn't working as well 🐬🐬🐬
That takes ages to break s20! Hahahaha
So anyone recomend to buy flip4 or to wait for flip5 ?
I have never had a Samsung before always iPhone and I’m using the iPhone 7 Plus at the moment but wanting to change to the flip. I don’t have loads to spend every month so would you recommend buying the flip 4 now regardless of the flip 5 coming out in summer? Or wait for the flip 5? Great video🐬
Honestly, I'd just get the Flip 4 regardless of the Z Flip 5 release (which are only rumours for now). But I'm not the type who'd get a phone upon first release because I prefer to observe how the phone performs on the market and see if it's worth my money. However, if you're keen on seeing improvements to the phone, especially the hinge, waiting for the Flip 5 may be worth it! :D
@@YasmeenCheM thank you for your reply! I am not really bothered about the newest phone either. I was wondering if to wait for the flip 5 so getting the flip 4 is cheaper as well?
@Milk man The gamer oh wow that’s crazy!! You know the struggle of using it when it is dying then lol. I am thinking the switch won’t be too bad from the iPhone now and I am loving the flip. Just thinking of investing in the cost through
@@melissasmith2622 hmmm based on past release of Flip 3 to 4, the price difference wasn't that big and people are saying the tech will eventually become cheaper as more flip phones enter the market. So, your guess is as good as mine hahah! However, if Flip 5 makes big improvements to its design, I wouldn't be surprised if its price matches that too 😵
same 7 plus looking for a flip :)). What did u buy and how is that now??@@melissasmith2622
Bro, if the phone closed, can i still uses NFC or I still need to open the phone? Thanks
can i trade in a flip phone that im just buying to get a cheaper deal on the flip 5?
🐬 gotchu bro
i want your light blue wallpaper ah
How’s the voice recognition?
One plus 9 pro revisited plzzzzz
I got mine week 1/2 ago. While at work, a lady asked me about my phone. She then takes hers out, she has a Galaxy Fold 3.
Never liked the crease in either flip or fold,
but what Samsung doesn't tell you is do not peel off the protector if you see bubbles as it will make it worse as only got a 2 year support or 1 if the crap screen splits and bubbles as they are make to to this,
Rubbish from day one is these kind,
Zaaaaaaaaaach!!!
Dr. Hassaaaaaaaaan!!!
You're right....its about the form factor! Too convenient to not explore and spend some time with. its making me want to not consider a slab phone again.
I traded in my flip 4 for s23 ultra. the flip gave me headaches with how easily the screen protector dries out, no dex, and narrow screen. it was nice and all, just not for me. I wish I had bought the fold 4 when it came out instead. Oh well, i might go for the fold 6/7/8 when they come out, we'll see.
what is the trade in value for a brand new flip 4?
@@lanerosalyn6815 in my country, they offered 420USD for my used flip 4, which is lower than what they offer in the US (could be wrong but I highly doubt it).
I would assume that a brand new one (unopened, in original packaging) might be worth more.
theme/widget/icon pack link pleasee
In India it was selling for 500$ brand new due to January sale.
Like to have the wallpapers showcased in this video.
E love the phone but hate moving parts with a soft sreen. Everytime i go to the beach i bless my choice.
I have just bought a new z flip 4 of eBay for £470 is this worth it. I would rather stay one year behind Samsung flagship phones because they are cheaper.
I just bought a flip 4 for $330 with 256gb. Definitely a bargain to buy a 1 year old model. These phones are more durable than the critics suggest. Just go to jerryrigeverything and watch how they tortured the flip 4 and it still works!
🐬🐬🐬😂😂😂 awesome review
I love my Fold4, but I would switch to a Pixel Fold ASAP!!!!

I always thought 5 a 6 hours screen on time is good. Until I got my 13 pro max which can easily reach 10 hours screen on time. And 5-6 hours feels bad 😂
Put the phone away, my dude.
@@BsetXOXO i need it for my work. but also i dont get that screen time everyday. but than i have a lot of battery
Cameras a deal breaker... For me anyway... NEXT
This device is my favorite foldable

The OS is sluggish. Their mid-range phone works smoothly and faster compared to the flip 4 that I am using.
Considering the price I feel other phones provide better performance and durability.
Is the battery life better than s22 ultra?
Depends. It's better than the Exynos S22U, only very slightly worse than the Snapdragon model
Don't worry about the battery it last me most of the day. Love how it fits in my pocket

I could've went with the Flip4 or Flip3 and probably NOT crank the bill up as much...but in doing the research, the cameras are a bit of a DOWNGRADE from the cameras on my S10+, which I was upgrading from. Sorry, but the sheer novelty and cool factor of the Flip (or even the Fold, truthfully speaking) just ain't worth it at all TO ME. I don't doubt that eventually, Samsung will figure out how to give them the same cameras as the S Ultra. I went with the S22 Ultra, and don't regret it one bit. That 100x zoom is one good use case away from being completely undefeated!! (It can do pics of the full moon perfectly fine. But remember that blood moon awhile back? Yeah, even the 100x zoom couldn't swing any decent pics of that phenomenon...) The Flip and the Fold DO NOT & CAN NOT say that their cameras can do that sorta thing...yet. 😏😏😏
Samsung's kinda lucky that Huawei got sanctioned into near irrelevance; not sure if it was able to perform successfully back when it came out, but that Mate X was poised to crush both the original Fold and later the Fold2 in every way except the price point. (Guessing despite being more ridonkalonkalously expensive, it did well enough, as there's a Mate X2 and there's a Mate X3 that's either coming soon or is already out.)

Don't buy it has screen issues
Don't buy this phone. Even with a protective case, a small drop will break the hinge and it no longer opens fully.

I had two flip 3 devices. Both with otter boxes, and both CAREFULLY handled. Both screens started cracking in the fold 4 months in. Samsung foldables are pure junk. Nothing more.
i hate it
Never seen 1 person irl with an foldable phone.. arent they supposed to be "the Future"? becuase they are defenetly not after years.
The point is you are not going to see it because of the portability. Mine stays in my pocket, and I can do most things with my Samsung watch or the cover display.
this phone is traaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssshhhh
Brr i hate folds and flips, useless unfinished easily breaking weird looking gadget cr*p, Galaxy S series ftw
