I don’t think phone companies understand that if they made a modernised mainstream flip phone to work just like this, they would FLY OFF THE SHELVES
Wishing and hoping they release something for us 🥹
YES. FOCUS ON girls and those that love cute things.. it’s a $$$$ market.. don’t target business people….
I love how these look like more advanced flip phones but they also ARE. It's funny how a flip phone can have that much memory nowadays, love it.
How i wish samsung would make a nostalgia flip smart phone, I see how wasily they could cpaitalize ofln the trend and make an average smartphone into this. I would get it so quickly, i really love the idea of being able to close it and protect it. Pleaseee android godss
Exactly! I wish manufacturers still make flip phones like the old days
they should.even people go to nia flips with albeit a.lower specs than these ones aside the 4g.is main reason but personally.i won't.be going there cuz the screen is a joke.compared.to this ones
@@chewyro_chewyro Same! Hoping they'd make it with the latest Android for people who like the fp aesthetic and still be able to use apps.
Bought mine a couple of days ago on ebay😭 hopefully it comes undamaged! The white ones aren't being sold that much and if they are....it's like double now, so I went with the gold one which I still like🥰
that's a cute color! Hoping you get yours with no issues whatsoever
Hi can you send me a link
@Lubv_xeb Lubvxeb I ended up getting it from a mercari vendor, but aliexpress sells them now! I've bought some cell phone from them in the past couple of months and everything came out perfectly!
Hi did your phone came
What did it cost you
Wait, this went viral on tiktok!? What?! Is that why I can't find one that's not being listed overpriced 🙃 well that explains it 🙄 can't have nice things 😕 oh well, guess that means 😉 even more waiting 😉
Same I hate that clock app.
That's a lot of emoji
Get it now cause honestly the price is still rising. I got a 16GB for 150usd, and you can always get a memory card for more memory.
@@glowgore it's an ass price for those specs, wouldn't buy it just because in the future it may increase even more, probably their strategy
@@user-zx2et9lf8y true. I was looking at this phone to be my dumbphone for a bit and was very shocked to see the price suddenly rising. Its because of the TikTok fad, which will fade, but the price probably won't decrease. Sad.
Samsung really was ahead of times, it still is with the flip and fold phones
I've been coveting this phone for a year now just crazy that they went from 9K regular price in late November to P12,000 in 2023 that's 3K increase :'(( Probably from the tiktok exposure since the phone also had triple it's sales. Hopefully it go back down so I could at least afford it huhu
So true! When I bought mine, the brand new unit was around 9K. Now it's 12k. Cray! I also contemplated a long time before deciding to get it. I don't really "need" it but can't stop thinking about it so I just gave in lol
I can sell u mine for 8k if u like but it's in coral
Esta 12,900 agora
I really want to buy this rn and the price is not 14k for the brand new
@@anythingmimihi do you have Samsung folder 2
Saving money rn! I already Search at shopee and i found it but there's no white colour so i had to choose gold colur. I am gonna buy pompompurin keychain for the phone also i thing its matching the phone colour! I am so excited to buy it! 😁
I wanna get this now. I wanna go back to a flip phone. I love my iphone but sometimes simple is better
I think it can work there, but not so sure. Seen some people from the US reviewing this phone on YT!
actually i think the LG Smart Folder is much better then the Folder2, it also has a headphone jack and FM Radio as well and it has a bit of an upgrade (Android 7.1)
Sim , é ainda é mais barato, se quiser usar fone nesse tem q comprar o adaptador pra fone, o ruim do outro é que não achei capinha além de uma loja coreana
Lg smrt x100s?? Or wine smart D486?? Im just thinking
the Samsung Folder 2 is android 7 except korean versions like this one wich are android 6
@@virchelathe smart x100s is better
I went for the smart x100s but it doesnt work in the USA :(
This type of phone brings back so much memories. You can type perfectly without even looking at the keypad
So true! It did take some getting used to, as my fingers already forgot what it's like to type on this type of keypad lol
People always think this is weird but i LOVE flip phones smm!! Im getting this one soon and this is gonna be my goal, especially because of my hands, sometimes typing on normal touch screen keyboards is hard due to tics and tremors lolzz
@@MagicaMadokaUA heyyyy! same! I love flip phones and old school devices. Hope you can find one that you'll enjoy using
@@chewyro_chewyro tyy!! :3
ooh i had a similar phone when I lived in Japan years ago!! It was sooo cute~
omg I'm sure the one you had in Japan was way cuter lol
I got it a couple months ago and I mostly love it, BUT:
- the microphone is not the best
- I realized a little late how long the phone is. It looks a bit silly when you're talking to someone haha its too long to fully speak into the microphone AND hold the top properly against your ear.
It has been nearly a month ago, since I found this video and thought to myself: "What a fucking statement could u set, if u wandered around the streets of germany with one of THOSE!". And honestly I still think about getting one. But the problem is the speed and the security I guess. I never needed the fastest smartphone n shit. But it has to be smart enough to run whatsapp and spotify, but not fast enough to keep me scrolling on fucking TikTok or Instagram all the time. I tried several transitiondevices and dumbphones but so many were rather to slow or not durable enough. but maybe this one could match my needs.
Ahhhh yes try it! I think it will work forbyou
I googled it it said it should work anywhere because it's unlocked im in the U.S. but hopefully it is true ill find out tomorrow mine isn't slow it runs fast for a flip phone crazy
that's great to know! :)
Did it work ??
The fact that they removed the headphone jack once again from a FLIP PHONE 💀💀💀💀
Like come ONNNN
Ikr 😂
Hey miss...is it worth to buy in 2023? How does the performance of the phone? Thx b4. Btw you have nice voice 😊
Here before this vlows up.
they run out of the white version-...
where did you purchase this from? I've been trying to look for the white model (but it is sold out); I did find a wine red one which is more than £600 in my country (lol) 😅
Wow thats expensive lol i got mine from Shopee PH
@@chewyro_chewyro I did manage to find a second hand model for £147.10 off EBay haha; there was no way I was paying over £600 😭😂
@@buri.bii3was the seller reliable? i am looking for one in the uk aswell 💀
but I dont understands whz this was released in 2021 and has android 6 ?
I’m wondering what people mean by backup phone lol. Aren’t people just using this as their everyday phone?
I guess everyone has their own use for a backup. I personally just use this for texting and as backup in case i go somewhere and I run out of battery or something like that
Eu amei o vídeo e o estranho é que entendi tudo o que você disse em inglês mesmo eu falando outra língua.Esperando apenas esse telefone chegar ao Brasil.💛💚💙
Eu tbm queria um desses 😍💖
Acho muito difícil, ta ai desde 2017 e nunca veio, e a loja que ele compra não manda pro brasil
@@l.c.7455 sai por quase 2000 reais pra loja mandar pro brasil, se na shoppe ta 12,900 pelo face eles combram 15,000
How old is this phone? Is it fairly new? Great review!
thank you! I believe mine is the 2021 version, but this model was originally released in 2017 :)
I've only had the phone for a few months
this is not old phone
this is real 2016 flip phone
thank you for this video helped me out a bunch! im hoping it works just as good in the US!
Yay! 🤞🏻
I really want this phone, but they don't sell it in my country and the only option I have is Samsung LG Wine Flip!! But comparing to Samsung Folder 2, Samsung is just superior! ㅠㅠ
I personally have not used that, but I think that’s also a pretty decent old school style flip phone
I have a plan to buy this phone next year, but there are several things that i curious about....
1. Can i use it to open a pdf file?
2. How do you think if we use it as daily driver but in a more simple way?
3. Can we use bluetooth earphone with that device?
I wish you can give me your answer hehe, anyway thank you for the review ^^
Hello! Yes, it can open pdf files. If you are okay with using a smaller screen with longer app open times, Id say this is good enough as a daily driver
It can also connect to bluetooth headphones
@@chewyro_chewyro uwaaah sounds promising > < been dreaming about have this one, and then i saw your review > < thank you very super much for your answer! ^^/
Hi! I just bought this, but i am unsure which simcard would work with this phone. If possible could somone tell me ? Tysm!
I’m wanting a flip phone that’s nice with no internet connection. I need to get away from social media and I need to go back to simple living.
You may wanna check out the samsung nori or other basic flip phones :) i also reviewed that in my channel
what carrier do you use to get mobile data on your folder2?
They made Chinese exclusive models (W2017,18,19) that are harder to get. Also expensive 500 usd and up! To get from ebay. Wanted a companion to my Motorola Razr 2023+
Where can I buy such a miracle?
link in the description box :)
How do you attach the phone charm? I've tried multiple times and i cant seem to figure it out, it only sticks for a second and then falls out
Waaaah I been wanting to buy this phone for so long but it's no longer on Shopee :((
hello! I was just looking for information on this cell phone. Very complete information, thank you very much for your video. I subscribed to your channel. Question: where are you from? My wife and I are from Argentina. Do you know how much this Samsung Folder 2 cell phone costs in currency: American dollars?
Sorry for my lousy English, since I speak Spanish.
Heyy! I’m from the Philippines. I actually dont know since it can vary in price. I got mine for around $137 - $140 USD :)
@@chewyro_chewyro Thanks!
Has anyone in the US tried this phone? I'm very interested in buying one but I'm worried that it won't work and end up wasting my money 😕
I haven't bought but I've done some research and it probably will not work seeing as it doesn't use 5g internet while most carriers have shut down anything other than 5g. Which sucks, id really like this phone too
I purchased this phone and I’ve read conflicting stories on coverage…I’m hoping T Mobile or AT&T will work with it (I bought the 2021 4G version) but not sure if it will
Hi! I was wondering if you’d be able to tell me what service provider you used if you don’t mind telling me? I live in the US and I’ve been having trouble finding a service provider that’s compatible with this phone lol T^T Edit: oh no nvm I see u live in the Philippines
Awe yea sorry!
Mint Mobile is compatible with this phone!
I have think about this video Samsung is perfect, awesome 👌
love this phone!
@@chewyro_chewyro ya
I'm so going to get this!!
I'm curious whether the service is good or not outside of your home
Love your content vids! I’ve been looking for local contents
Iike this one. Very inspirational for me. I believe it’s about time that us, Gen Z’s, should become more proactive and take initiative to REALLY stay awake and sane. I believe we’ll one day have that deep connection with people and overcome complexities for as long as we fight these tech and software monsters intended to make us addicted. Love from PH sissy!!💖🌺🌤️
Do you have a link for the phone? Thats one of my dream phone before when i was a teenager haha
What size sim card doss it use?
can you make more abt this!!
Would love to if you guys are still interested! I do enjoy the phone :D
Hi! I was wondering if you can add the sound for when you press the keypads and it makes cute sounds like on LG Lollipop?
You can have a “beep” sound for key presses, but not cute like the lg flip :(
@@chewyro_chewyro Thankyou so much! :3 I miss the cute pop sound on LG so much 🥺🥺
How cute! splendid! Samsung flip phone! I wish they would sell it in Japan too... Thank you for the wonderful video. I'm a Japanese essayist. The name is Mikan Oshidari（忍足みかん🍊♥）. I am publishing a book called [I want to stop being a slave to my smartphone]. I switched to a flip phone because of my smartphone addiction. I hear that flip phones are popular among young people in America right now. What about Korea? I love flip phones. Because it's good for your mental health. But I'm scared that flip phones will no longer be manufactured someday. despair. I hope that the merits of flip phones will be reevaluated worldwide. For the mental health of everyone around the world. I wish It would be great if there was a flip phone boom. I want this flip phone to be sold in Japan too! Your video shows the benefits of flip phones! thank you! Please take another video!
Does Apple Music still not work for you?
This is so cute! I hope your youtube channel becomes more popular.
awe 🥹 thank you so much!
amiga, como pusiste la correa o el colgante en el celular? compre uno pero no pude colocarlo :( necesito ayuda por favor
Quem quer comprar esse celular e não for das filipinas, saiba q tem q pagar um taxa de 6000 ph extras pra enviar pro seu pais, somando ao preço do telefone vai sair pro aproximadamente 342 dólares
True, custom fees can be high too
i just got mine(white color), really love it but i afraid of making it dirty or scratching while using it, is there anyway to protect the phone?
The phone is pretty durable. Been using it without a case. If you still want to protect it, you can get a case for it :)
recently got one and sadly idk what to do with it anymore because my carrier (metropcs) doesn't work with it though they should work with any 4g phone :( the sim card was unable to be read when they tried to attach it a service line. i did buy mine off ebay but i think i would have to find one that's based here in the us and not imported from china
oh no :( is it maybe because it's not an open line unit? Maybe you can get it unlocked?
try unlock ones and get a 4g sim
unless u got a standalone provider u should be able to call but dunno bout the data (non standalone provider.will.go down hsdpa+ when 4g are blurry signal)
Samsung phone + laptop + android + only released in south korea = galaxy folder 2
I want to buy so much but I can't find it anywhere for Brazil :((
Sou do Brasil também e só encontrei nesse site q ela mandou, acho q é pq foi um lançamento pra queda região, tem um parecido com ele que é o LG smart folde
is it possible to get voice/speak-typing on this phone?
yup! I use that sometimes
What's the name of the shop? I can't hear it clearly in the vid..
Im curious to ask, is there a way to manually figure out how to rotate the folder 2? My phone specifically does not have the feature and its a Chinese variant (wine red) its using marshmallow 6.0.1 😅
Sooo mine has that thing/option if you swipe from the notification bar. Unfortunately, I’m not sure how that looks like on yours. Sorry!
Where did you get the clear case for the flip 3? I have been looking for one but they all start to yellow : (
sadly, not sure either :/ Mine's a hard case so thankfully, it will not turn yellow. I got free with the phone
@@chewyro_chewyro ohh darn, thanks for answering tho!
Can you share the link to your wallpaper?

If you close the phone, does the bluetooth connection still work?
yup! it does
@@chewyro_chewyro thank you!
Hi may i ask, what theme r u using? It looks really cute!
I’m using Nova Launcher and the icon pack is called Crayon
Cute!
Hi...
Which country does the currency in the store belong to or what country are you in ?
We can't buy from Turkey flip phone :'(
Its on Philippines. Pesos is the currency
Can you please make an in depth tutorial on how you install the icon pack crayons? Can’t seem to get the whole process 😭
Paid for the nova launcher prime and paid for the crayon icon pack but I’m told to download the nova launcher but it’s not compatible with the phone 🥲
Heyyy if you message me on IG I can guide you :)
hi! Is there a gps/maps app, and does it work?
Hi! Yea, location works
No headphone jack?
None, sadly
the dennis tayag on 8:34 HAHAHA lets go wet the bed!!!!!!!!
可愛い❤️
may i know where you got the stickers on your phone? 🥺😍 please🙏🏽
heyyy I got them from different shops on Shopee :)
Se pode comprar apenas nas filipinas? Tento abrir o site mas não aparece nos brasileiro🥲
Hi there! What's the Shopee link of your key charm? It's so cute! 😊
Added the charm link in the description :)
Hi! How long can the battery last you for? 😊❤
Hello! It really depends on your personal usage and which apps you’re using. I personally usually use my phone for messaging and maybe listening to music a few hours a day, so mine lasts 2+ days
what launcher apps do you used for the launcher?
I’m using Nova Launcher and an icon pack called Crayon
Finally! The comment I was looking for. I knew someone would've already asked what I had on my mind.
Hi...can you tell me how to take screen shots in this mobile...pls...
would this be safe to use, since it runs on android 6? i just want it to make calls and use whatsapp but idk
Safe as in? Im not sure cause it doesnt get updates and security patches anymore but so far so good for me
can you review on how texting/typing works? is the space bar zero?
I might do that one of these days. The space key is # key
Does the speaker good for music?
Can android be updated on this phone? Maybe to 7.0 or maybe even 9.0?
It must be on 7.1.1 right now.
Great
Fhone
where to get in India?
Does it get android updates? I heard the 2021 model can be updated
I dont think so - this is the 2021 version and I couldn’t update it anymore unfortunately
Sayang di diindonesia Samsung ini tidak masuk 😭😭
Hi can i ask when you buy it on shoppe did you payed through gcash?
Heyyy I bought mine using a debit card but im pretty sure you can use gcash
Where can i acutally buy this from??
You use it everyday?
Yup!
@@chewyro_chewyro how are you there? Is there any problem? Are there any app that not work? Tnx
what is your wallpaper? thank you
How much is the service to cut it on?
A headphone jack would've been cherry on the top.
Ikr. Sadly even that is gone
Hi! May I know if you know how to scroll/interact through facebook or tiktok without touching the screen? Simply by using the keypads if possible?
For tiktok, you can use the middle “c” or back button
@@chewyro_chewyro Thank you! How about fb or other apps? Thank you!
@@chewyro_chewyro Do you have any idea how to change the saving location of photos in instagram from device to sd card?
I'm having trouble with how I can't view the pictures in my gallery even though I saved a photo. However it is saved in the device storage.
It's kind of a hassle if I always move it from device storage to sd card 😢
What version of Android does it run?
did it come being able to text and call or did you have to hook it up to data or somethin?
Yup!
Is it an Asia only phone?
Hi I recently got mine, could you please tell me what launcher are you using?
Hi! Im using nova launcher
@@chewyro_chewyro tysm english is a bit hard to me, so i couldnt undertand it properly in the vid T T
Hi :3
Hiya I was just wondering where I can buy (Cause I'm in Australia and it's so HARD to find? And shoppe is country blocked here so I need a little help 😅)
awe. Have you tried ebay or maybe even Amazon?
@@chewyro_chewyro Yeah I have, not much luck unfortunately
Hi! Just wonderin’ if you can use Zoom or GMeet
yup! you can
what the difference with yours model with square navigation version?
i mean with the same samsung galaxy folder 2, only the difference in navigation circle and square
I think the circle one is the latest model (2021). Not 100% sure though!
The round nav button is newer one
The storage?
Mine has 2gb of ram and 32gb of storage. You can also add an SD card, up to 256gb
Hello. Does wifi connection still connected after closing the phone?
Yes
hey! do you know if bluetooth earphones works while closed?
Yup! It does
