Fold or Flip!? Also please feel free to subscribe if you enjoyed the video! Thanks for your time.
Flip ALWAYS
Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!!
Please make a Battery drain Test of Fold 3, 4, & 5
Nobody has done that yet
Thanks
Neither for me. I really prefer the regular phone layout (candy bar as you call it haha). I have an ipad mini if I want to do tablet things and an iPhone 13 Pro as my phone. I don't see much of a point in the flip. It looks really cool but honestly the 13 Pro isn't that big in my pocket and is easy for me to use with one hand.

Fold is more for people who work on sheets & Slate phones can match Fold
That really was an honest review. I agree with everything, having tried fold 4 and 5 myself. I own fold 4 and there is absolutely no reason to get the 5. Save yourself some money and buy the fold 4. Use the extra money to buy a watch 6
If you're willing to take some chances and deal with a few possible headaches for a deal, you can always buy ebay refurbished z fold 4s for around 600$ and they're covered with a 1 year warranty under allstate. At least the last time I checked you could do that. It's crazy that just a year later you can get 2 z fold 4s for less than the price of one on release.
I'm glad you made that point that the front display is NOT all that tall. I actually LOVE the thinner front display as it makes one-handing the phone MUCH easier for tasks such as carrying something anding needing to respond to a text or answer a call. If I need to use 2 hands, I GET TO open it up to that BEAUTIFUL inner display.
Edit: also a small note. They actually HAVE been making incrimental improvements to that crease on the inner display. The difference between the 4 and 5 might be small, but the difference between the 3 and 5 is much mroe noticable.
Please skip the black dots moving in the background when showing camera quality and video comparison between the two phones. It's just annoying
Out of the corner of my eye I thought there was a bug on my screen
I actually needed to stop the video, just couldn't concentrate
And the award for the most petty first world problem goes to (drum roll)...
The above comments!
Congratulations! You have won a ridiculously picky and hard to please disposition. Enjoy.
So just bc of your ocd. 😮 It's not even noticable unless you're looking for it
@@donaldbraugh2314 I DEFINITELY noticed it, and not in a good way, but I didn't think it warranted complaint. Perhaps MY OCD doesn't have a hair trigger like some, but it was definitely distracting 😆😬🙊🙈
The camera looks better on the 4
yeah i think he messed up on editing
Finally, I found someone who gave an honest review about the crease. Everyone says it’s “15%” better or some other bs metric. Earned a sub.
I dont know the percentage but having a 4 and 5 on hand the crease is definitely less on the 5 both visually and to the touch.
They look identical and even the dip is the same
Somebody pulled that 15% number out of their 🫏
I just compared the crease on my Z fold 4 vs Z fold 5 side by side. It is noticeably lesser on the Fold 5
Same, comparing my Fold 4 to my Fold 5, the crease is very noticibly deeper on the 4.
Skip the 5 and wait for the 6. This doesn't make sense.
How does it not?
Very sensible advice. The Galaxy Fold 6 is a minor upgrade and at $1800 unless you are rich clearly not worth upgrading from the Fold 4 (£1100 loss in a year with trade-in in the UK for a few changes). I understand hardcore Samsung fans will buy whatever but the Fold 4 is solid with the same cameras and only 30-60 mins less battery life. I have no idea why anyone would want to lose £1100 to upgrade from 4 to 5?
fold 6 isnt gonna be a minor upgrade for sure@@andyH_England
What the hell u talking about lol.. Fold 5 is the best phone
Makes perfect sense especially if you have a fold 4
I love the fact you made it clear that if you already have the 4 it's not worth the money ...thank you because I just made my final decision based off of you saying that 🙏🏿🙏🏿
I don’t understand why everyone complains about the crease. It’s barely noticeable if you’re not trying to pay attention to it. The thing that bugs me is it being nearly a $2,000 phone with a non-flagship camera. I loved my fold 4, but the camera was just too mid, I had to return it. Once the cameras get better I’ll be rocking the folds again
If these phones were 1200 instead of 1800-2000$, I bet these would become very popular. I can't understand why Samsung wouldn't just sell these cheaper. At this point we're generations in. If they want the market share in america and to get ahead of apple whatsoever, why not do what Samsung did before? Up the standard for phones. Samsung made big screens the norm on phones and apple had to adjust. Why not get ahead? Sell these things at a loss if you have to (they don't, they could profit off of these selling them for 900$ if they wanted)
I'm still loving the z fold 4. The cover screen is a bit narrow but it performs very well. Inner display - crease only bothers me in sunlight.
I love my fold 4 also I just wish it got brighter I barely can see what's on the screen outside on a sunny day and that's with the brightness all the way up lol.
i think im staying in 4 until 6 too hahaha
have u had any problems with the hinge or any at all? im really worried about the durability@@patovalenciac
I feel like I got a killer deal and upgraded from Z Fold 4 to the 5 for $550 out the door! Samsung gave me $1,000 off trade-in and Verizon gave me a Black Friday deal $300 off for a combined $1300 off total, no Activation and no deposit down. The better hinge, much stronger screen and newer Processor I feel like it was worth it for me.
PEOPLE SHOULD DIFFINATLEY GET 5 IF YOU HAVE 4.... THE MIDDLE OF THE 4 CRACKS FOR NO REASON AND SAMSUNG KNOWS THIS ,, THEY KNOW IF THE PROBLEM WHY THEY MADE THE 5 DIFFERENT
Your videos are superb. So balanced and you tell people not to make upgrades, when they don’t need to. I currently have a s23 ultra and I love it. And I like in the uk, so it’s nice to have the snapdragon for once. This does look like a great phone, but watching because I love tech.
glad you guys got snapdragon finally. I never understood how samsung can allow different processors in different regions. It's awful publicity. So many people complaining online about their phones with the exynos versions. It's horrible marketing. Horrible for the people in those regions.
I ordered one cause Samsung just increased their trade in offer to $1200 for Z Fold 4. Considering that I only paid $700 for it last yr, I just couldn't pass that offer up. It's not much of an upgrade, but I do love the new Icy Blue color and the slimmer design with zero hinge gap is definitely worth it to me.
Same, but icy blue is out of stock now. I'm happy going back to black for the first time since my Note 9
@jschenard I agree. I used my Fold 4 everyday for almost a full year and I can tell the Fold 5 is definitely better.
They have black Friday deals going on right now for the Fold 5 with trade in, hard to pass up
Wow! What a deal!
@duck4water So do you think I need to wait until Black Friday or unless I get a great trade in deal to get the fold 5? I really wanna upgrade from my Note20 Ultra 5G...
Wow, it's like people are actually realizing upgrading from the fold 4 to fold 5 is like switching from iPhone 14 to iPhone 15. OF COURSE ITS NOT MUCH DIFFERENT.
Fold 5 sounds louder but it's not a big deal to me.
I got the Fold 4 that have 1tb and I won't upgrade till Fold 8 that got a S-pen build in.
I know people reviewing now are saying skip the upgrade, but I've never had one, either previous gens or competing ones, and I want one
Still man skip it. I got the 4 and traded up so fast because the outside screen you use 90% and it's too small.
@@Medicbobs too late. And while yes the screen is small I still use it a good majority without significant issue
I am definitely an edge case, but I currently have a Fold 4 256gb and am jumping to the 5. I got my Fold 4 for 840 bucks refurbished. With the trade in value of $1000 giving me a $160 profit on my initial purchase, $50 email offer, getting the 512GB upgrade free along with the $80 worth of samsung points I had in my account I am getting the newest Fold for roughly 400-500 off the price I would pay outright. Sure my initial purchase was an absolute steal but I like the satisfaction of knowing I have a brand new device with proper coverage. But I agree with pretty much everyone else that it's not worth the jump unless you are rich or got a crazy deal on your previous phone like I did.
Where do u live ?
I upgraded to a Fold 5 from a Fold 2 and have been enjoying my Fold 5
Battery life alone enough for me to buy the new fold 5 after seeing enourmous difference between my s22u to s23u
After using the Flip 4 for a year I don't understand why people make it as if there is some additional effort to open the phone and use the main screen. After a short time, it is almost a subconscious action. I am anticipating the arrival of my Fold 5 and I doubt if I will use the outer screen for anything more than looking at notifications and answering calls. If you aren't using the inner screen I don't know why you would buy this phone.
I have fold 4 and it seems fold 5 only has minimal improvements. I shall wait for fold 7 before I get new one since fold 4 for me is still new and excellent.
Smart move
ME 2
*_Z FOLD NEEDS :_*
▪︎ 25w Wireless charging the⌚️ but it would be better if it had Type C charging port, so we don't have to carry around this extra charger 👎🏻
▪︎ We should be able to use the 25w Wireless Charger of Watch on the Phone too ♨️
▪︎ 85w Wire Charging 🔌
▪︎ 5000mAh 🔋 if slimmer other Folds have it & have faster charging too
▪︎ Camera 📷 should be better than same years Ultra Phone, not last year's Fold phone 😏
CREASE, Wider Front Screen & Inserted S Pen 🤷🏻♂️ SD Card Slot
If Samsung had a 85 w charge , then we had a new Galaxy Note 7 like issue
If I have a fold 4 and getting the fold 5 for 675 after trade in and other discounts, would you consider that a good deal?
No
Hey Matthew, recently discovered your channel. You've become one of my favourite yt channels to watch! Keep up the great work 😎
Thank you so much! I really do appreciate it. Welcome to the family!
fun fact: if you have and like the fold 4 s pen case, you can use the plastic holder part with the fold 5 strap case.
I would like to see a real day in life with this phone, explaining the use cases of foldable phones, testing camera and battery life, rather than a conventional review comparing it to its predecessor
It's literally user preference. Are you a consumer that just want a phablet to consume social media content. Are you into creation or business use where you wanna multitask emailing, copying data/statistics, making videos/photos, etc. Are you a mobile gamer? Either way, you get more screen, which is better.
I'm getting the 5 after all because of how much they are giving me for the Z Fold 3. The added photo quality improvement due to processing is the selling point for me.
bought a pristine 256gb fold 4 beige for £700, battery health 90%. Save your money and just buy the ultra lol. I have to dedicate a pocket to this phone xD
@@jackie1159 I don't get it. you need to dedicate a pocket to the ultra as well, no?
I switched ftom the 4 to the 5 after my hinge broke for the second time in 6 months ( got it repaired from Samsung) honestly the increased brightness of the inner screen makes a huge difference to usability (it feels more like a doubling of brughtness even though its only increased by 33 percent) and the fact it lays flat with 90 percent less wobble and the crease is noticably less visible as long as its not completely flat. My fold 4 got much hotter, but the fold 5 has been pretty cool for me. Battery life does seem a bit worse, but so far, it lasts me all day unless i start really pushing the inner screen. I really hope they find a way to maje it thinner /lighter on the 6, i like the more narrow screen but even just making it slightly wider so the inner screen is bigger (with a bigger battery and inner screen too) would be great. If they could get to a point where using the inner screen could last you, almost a full day itd be the greatest phone. At the very least, faster charging. I dont really care about the cameras, but what's the point of all that real estate of the inner screen if the content you take looks mediocre. For the price, it really should blow the ultra out of the water on all fronts
Love the review but the...z4 has better contrast...feels like they had to just out out whatever they had on the z5
Other youtubers said that battery was way better , but 3 hours of screen on time is just sad and bad
Yeah he must be doing something wrong. Even the fold 4 gets more than that lol
Im upgrading 1 cause my 4 already needed hinge repair and as they repaired that the fingerprint reader ended up needing to be replaced as well and in my experience once you need to fix a phone like this it doesnt last much longer after it gets opened and messed around with. The deals they are offering me are too good to pass up so i can be primed and ready for when the 6 comes out, and thats where most people speculate the big changes will be. 2 rhe brighter inner screen so it will actually be usable during daylight. 3. better cases cause the ones for the 4 have all been subpar and terrible quality. Ultimately, I had my 4 never needed repairs. i wouldn't consider upgrading, but i did go to the samsung store and compare them, and there is a difference in the crease and screen brightness and with the deals theyre offering in conjunction with cash back from either Rakuten or chase ultimate rewards im basically getting 1500-1600 off the phone so itd make no sense not to upgrade even for minor improvements especially given that these phones dont really retain retail value after a few months from release.
It's odd, most reviewers show at least an extra hour of battery life, which is logical given how much more efficient the snapdragon 8 gen 2 (for Samsung) is vs the Gen 1 Fold 4 chip that was not highly regarded for thermal problems. However, there are few that see discernable photo improvements. I guess it's a user case thing. Great review, I'm upgrading a Note 20 Ultra which is a generation behind the Fold 4, so I expect improvements across the board.
The Fold4 didn't use the 8 Gen 1 but rather the 8+ Gen 1, which was much more energy efficient. It has much better battery life than a lot of early 2022 flagships, even with its not very impressive battery
You do now it's not getting any more major android os updates?
You can googling that Qualcomm snapdragon 888 and 8 gen 1 made by samsung chipset (not samsung mobile).. snap 865, 870, and 8+ gen 1 and 8 gen 2 made by TSMC.. z fold4 using 8+ gen 1 which is stable like 8 gen 2 thus no thermal issue
@@13huhahh yup. I messed up buying the s22 ultra. The 8 gen 1 truly feels only 80% like a flagship processor. Really rough around the edges. Wish I had gone for the z fold 4 instead.
One quick quesion.. have fold 4 and dont want to upgrade. how to get rid of internal screen guard issue as dust gets accumulated.. thx
I have a fold 3 should i get the 5 for a mich higher price or should i get the 4 for less?
Late comment but maybe it will still help ..get the 4 or wait for the 6..hope I'm not too late ..lol.. the 4 and 5 are very similar so why spend all that extra money for things still so similar
@@kimariunrulyanimal i bought the fold 4😂✌🏼👍🏼 and yeah the 4 and 5 have just the hinge different but the rest Almost identical
@@kurdistandersim8594 after watching this video I was like ok let me just get the 4..lol
@@kimariunrulyanimal good choice i got myself the blue one you?
@@kurdistandersim8594 I'm thinking blue ... I was one step away from ordering a hour 5 then decided to look on RUclips for a comparison video and boom his first words are don't do it 🤣🤣🤣.. so gonna get a 4 instead
I have the 5, but I upgarded from the 3. There is definitely a difference to the feel and handling. I love the Fold Series!
These critics been saying don't upgrade ever since the folds came out. I never listen and I always upgrade and love the minor changes
Even before the fold 4 came out, I knew the 3 wasn't really going anywhere for awhile. I knew the upgrades were going to be negligible for a few generations after, but I was hoping to be wrong.
These things depreciate so fast. I can find open box mint or near-mint z fold 4s on ebay with a 1 year warranty under allstate for around 600$. I'm gonna wait until the fold 6 is out and just buy a fold 5. It's crazy to me that you can get two fold 4s for like 700$ less than a single fold 4 on release. Nutso.
The only thing to test is durability. If no durability improvement found, Fold5 is a waste of time.
the consumer amnesia is insane....
every fold , at launch, since the 2nd, had a silent hinge. After a few months, the display at the middle unsticks a bit, and dust gets in the hinge, making the hinge creek a bit when you open it up. Also, after 2 years or so, the fold or flip doesn't unfold compleetly shut. I run a zfold , and has for the past 3 years, and by now, i'm about to change because the utg has cracked, which makes long thin cracks along the middle of the display. And i'm a lucky case, because when this usually happens, the whole display gives up.
Also, like said earlier, dust gets in the hinge, and now my fold doesn't unfold flat. There's always an angle, and by now, it's enough that if it keeps getting worse, the curve when unfolded would make the content on the inner display too distorded for a good and uninterrupted usage.
Just a few toughts from a LONG.TERM. fold user.
Reviewing stuff about foldeable before a 2 year mark is useless in my opinion. And if you say " well 2 years of good use is enough"
Not for 2300$cad. No way in hell that's good enough.
Z fold 4 have hinge issues , they usually don't open flat after some time
My fold 4 recently had it about an year now but its starting too heat up more then id like im also not been full charging it since i got it back from repair wont leave on charge longer then an hour due too worries off the inner battery leaking again .... when my contracts over i will be going back too an normal phone 😢
I have owned galaxy fold 1-4, but I did not buy the 5 because not enough changed. Can you imagine this phone still being as tall as it is, like keeping the height aspect but then getting the width aspect of the pixel fold. I don’t know how big that would make the internal display but man that would be amazing lol I don’t care if it wouldn’t fit in my pocket, I’d figure it out 😂
@jschenard if I was coming from the 3 maybe I would consider it and even that was a marginal upgrade going to the 4. The processor and the phone folding completely closed is irrelevant to me lol
it's the most comfy smartphone i've ever used. The size of the the phone is just perfect and everybody can use it with one hand and type in one hand. 6.2 screen is ideal.
I carry around my phone AND a Windows surface for doing art projects on the road and was curious if a fold phone + S pen would suffice for when I don't want to or can't carry my bag. I don't have a huge budget though so I was looking at just getting a 7 inch tablet and carrying both around just wearing jackets with larger pockets. Trying to decide if the 4 would do the job since I'd be putting it in a case anyway and don't really care about slight improvements to hinges etc.
If I’m switching from 10 years of apple should I get the 5 or 4? It seems they are the same price on Verizon
With my pre-ordered Z Fold 5 on the way that arrives in the mail soon and eventually into my hands, it won't be long afterward that my desire to have the Z Fold 7 be hard to resist.
I'm def upgrading from fold 4. The brighter inner screen and new hinge are enough reason. If u own a fold 4 which u constantly struggle to see in bright sunlight then this is def worth it. ..
I upgraded from fold 4, the size alonr difference with the new hinge is a big improvement. Ita mucb slimmer now + brighter screen solved my 2 main concerns.
The fact that it folds COMPLETELY FLAT when its unfolded makes it enough for me i love it
@robertrulez5391 received mine a few days ago the difference is night and day. The hinge is so smooth . The quality of the displays are also very noticeably different. It's so vibrant and bright ! ... overall way faster as well.
Me too thank god I didn't listen to these so called experts
I don't really understand why people complain about the foldable phones, they're going to get better, and the people wanting them are the ones supporting it, if you don't want one then...don't buy it, litterally every phone updates a littttle bit each time, is it worth it no of course not, it never is, so just buy last year's module when it breaks or you want an upgrade or Cana afford it, still get last years module
Who else doesn't like that ugly crease?
Z Flip 5 for me. I really like what Samsung did with that form factor.
Love the flip, but battery life is just not good enough yet for my usage
I went to my local store and checked out what the Fold & Flip were like in person and I was really surprised with that outer screen for the Flip, it looks sick!
If they can get the Flip to hit 4000 mAh battery next year with the next Snapdragon that will be amazing!
I took a photograph of the night sky with my SZF4 and my results were like that of no previous phone I've had
So glad you picked up on the noise opening the screen! Fold 4 sounds like something is wearing, or that the screen protector is stretching - it's a horrible noise and put me off opening it as much as I should have. New one feels much much better .. that and the fact it really folds flat now is way more important to me than the gap when folded. Fold 5 is a much larger upgrade, hardware wise, than most reviews are letting on.
So should i shift from the s20fe to fold 4 ?? Im uaing s20fe as it has a bigger storage space but my current phone is giving problems because the call sometimes starts cutting off (normal calls does ) but not the calla on whatsapp , instagram or messenger
On my fold 4 there aren't a 1x or 2x in portrait mode. It only shows symbals with one person or two person. Is this because it's a European edition or am I missing something in the settings?
Also, seeing another video, there are somee differences in settings when it comes to Samsung's data collections as well.
When you were walking and started turning the 5 looked smoother
I upgraded from 4 to 5 mostly because I had some minor damage on my 4 so deductible on insurance was 250 and Samsung had a deal for 1200 dollar trade in so it was about 650 to upgrade and omg the hinge upgrade alonejs worth 400 dollars it's a world of difference especially after a year of use on the 4. Also my screen started to delaminate and when I say that I mean the screen protector on the fold 4 apparently the five has a stronger adhesive so that is also better
I'm in the same boat, this is why I just traded in the 4. I also had an issue with the hinge where it wasn't opening flat. Apparently this was a common issue as well.
What if you dont have a fold and would be gettin your first folding phone
Got the upgrade. I gotten pleasently suppriest. The screen brightness is finally good enough. And my carrier in sweden lets you swap phones after a year and get rid of the last year for a new phone trading in your old one. They tend to not hold out much longer then a year so for me to get some savings it needs to last at least 2 years and if my note could barly handle 2,5years i got no faith in the fold series to hold out longer. Fold 2 screen replacement 8 month, same for fold 3. Fold 4 11 month main and sub board, dual battery replacement and lcd replacement for the wakom pen. Warranty so at least i dont need to pay. I use my phone a lot in work outside in rain freezing tempretures and sweaty work pants. The lift in the emulation like switch games got a big boost.
Inner display on my Fold 4 broke a few days ago and requested a replacement through samsung care and they sent me a fold 5. Didnt even notice it was different till I saw the device name when setting up. At least I got an upgrade for cheap
S fold have been such a let down to me since 1st gen. Cant believe 5 gens later, now its decent enough for me to actually want it. Luckily fold 6 comes out in 3 months. Finally joining fold series 🥳
Counterargument to the tall display. The phone is also thicker. Plus the other two phones aren't really made for single hand use. What's the point of having the front display so narrow if you have to use two hands anyways?
Also, Samsung seems to throttle the soc more on their phones vs other manufacturers.
I had the z4 and i had the bubble affect and Samsung or one of their repair centers told me that I get 2 free screen protector replacements for the life of the phone, which was a shock to me as they know that there is a fault. Then not even after 2 months I got the black screen which the y told me the phone is faulty and has an affect, so I told them I don't want that phone anymore as it's been nothing but a nightmare, constantly getting hot, so I asked for the replacement of the new Z5 over the S23 Ultra, the Samsung customer service rep told me that the S23 Ultra is a downgrade compared to the Z 4 or Z5. Hopefully the problems that the Z4 had were fixed.
You look like Shawn Michaels if he was from the Northern States
my Fold 4 won't fully open flat, is there are an fix for that? or just trade it for 550$ for the fold 5?
2 fold 2s, 3 fold 3s. Center of screen cracked on all of them and it fills with dust. It takes about 6 or so months for cracks to start. I keep returning them, and 6-7 months and cracks come. Once they start, the center is full of dust within one month. I'm on the fence about skipping the 4 and go to the 5. My tmobile guy who prefers samsung told me wait until apple comes out with a foldable, then when samsung copies them... get that fold.
Im currently using 12 pro and was apparently waiting for 15 pro max but unfortunately bad reviews made me think twice and now im planning to move to fold 5 can someone help me to understand is fold 5 good for a daily day to day use ?
Hey I'm getting a new phone and looking at a fold,and the fold 4 significantly cheaper than the fold 5,would you recommend getting the fold 4 instead of the fold 5?
S23 Ultra
very very helpful, was considering an upgrade but there's not enough difference between them to do so atm :D I'll wait and see what a fold 6 brings
LOVE YOUR HONESTY
THanks for watching!
Yeah, I think it's pretty obvious that people are complaining about the tall aspect ratio. Not the fact that the phone is literally tall. It feels tall in the hand because it's a skinny candy bar shape. 😅
Does the s pen from the fold 3 and the one from the fold 4 work on the fold 5? Whats the difference, they are caled all fold edition, right?
Any s pen should work on any phone
I had the 4. Broke it. Insurance company gave me a 5 for the 100 dollar charge because they were out of 4s... ya they are almost exactly the same
Hi, could you please use new spen on Fold4 and see if it works. I asked this question to many RUclipsrs but no one answered. Thanks
Hello there , I’m upgrading from Samsung Galaxy Note 8 do u advise to upgrade to Fold or s22Ultra ??
NO!
So, the spine is like 0.0000000⅕ thinner than f4.
F4 spen case will not work without double-sided tape. It's almost worth saving $170 (aud) on the f5 spen case. Buuuut, unfortunately. I wouldn't risk it. (Saying that with an f4 case on My f5)
The reason I got it was for the 1tb (video and photo editor) over the 256gb at the time the f4 was available. And... the promo items. Buds2 and watch 5 (bt) only, unfortunately.
Thanks for the video ❤
The hinge is a Huge upgrade. The Software and Cameras are slightly better. Feels better overall. Cameras look more premium in person. Perfect weight and the battery life is slightly better though it's time Samsung make the front screen wider and time to put a 5000 + mAh battery inside. If Samsung Wet the bed in 2024 they will lose to the competition
Im coming from a s22 plus, would this be an upgrade?
I have the note 20 ultra is this an upgrade?
So is this a good time to upgrade to the Fold 5 from my Fold 3? Or should I wait a bit for something more better? Thanks in advance 🤘
If there's nothing wrong with your phone wait one more year
I also have the fold 3. IMO, there's not much difference between fold 3 and 4. Especially from fold 4 to 5. So let's just keep our fold 3 for one more year.
3 to 4 was a big change in the usability of the front screen.
Underrated reviewer for years .
It's *Fold 4 --> Fold 6* for me
Ya two years wait is the minimum to wait or eveb three these days
I upgraded from the 4. I only had to come out with $800. What a steal
Samsung is way ahead of its time! ❤
Anyone else think bugs are on their phone? Like while paying attention to the video the dots or whatever that move around in the orange make me think bugs are on my phone until I focus on them and realize it’s the video 😂
I only paid for the 512gb for 1000
is the battery life better?
I have an S21, was hoping to switch to a Fold, but the 5 is VERY expensive, I was considering buying a 4 now that they're cheaper but the hinge not closing completely doesn't convince me at all, feels like it will break in my pocket, not sure if I should wait for the 6 to come out and then buy the 5 once the price goes down.
Im in the same boat, but u currently own a note20, the fact that the spen becomes so bulky is a no go. Ill just wait for the six to come out so i can buy the fold 5. Maybe a year more waiting?
selfie from Fold 5 is MUCH BETTER than from S23 Ultra
Just love your reviews it is the best
I think personally, the Fold5 is harder to open, I've got the one that supposed to be blue but it looks purple or lilac color, and the sides are shinny silver so my fingers slide off it trying to open it up. The older fold4 was easier to open IMO.
They feel the same too me but if you put a case on it then it becomes super easy to open
The Flip: you want to unflip 75-100 times a day to gain a bit of pocket space ?
If you download lots of stuff. The Ufs 4.0 kills the outdated 3.1 on the fold 4. Read and write speeds are way faster on the 5. No reviewers mention this.
I mentioned it in my flip review
Z fold 4 is now around 900 USD in UAE
it is better deal
if i found a used z fold 4 for 760USD and a new 1200usd for a z fold 5 which is a better deal? both 512gb
I'm leaving my fold 4 to S24 ultra, made my decision
I decided to wait.
Then the software update made my phone freeze when switching from inner and outer screen, then the outer screen stopped working at all.
UBREAKIFIX flashed the software, allegedly. No dice. They're replacing the outerscreen in a few days. Also part of the inner screen doesn't detect the S Pen. WTF
Then Samsung offered me $1200 for my 4 so yeah I'm upgrading. I will probably be getting the 6 too. It is what it is 😂
Will you upgrade z Fold3 to zFold 4 or 5?
I have fold 4 and my aunt wants me to sell it to her. So I'm thinking to sell it and get the fold 5. I think it's the only reason I'm upgrading it.
Coming from 13 mini the screen is perfect size for me, thin enough to use one hand.
I didn't know Ryan Reynolds was doing phone reviews.
You mean Ryan Reynolds from Aliexpress?
