  • The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 was probably the one device I was most excited for this year just because of how in love I was with last year's model - the Z Flip3. As much as I liked last year's model - it has some serious drawbacks. With the exact same price tag, although the changes for this year's model aren’t as massive as I was expecting - there IS one upgrade that leads to a much better, overall experience. This is my review of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4!

    I bought the Z Flip 4 at last! I was a long time iPhone user but this year I decided to separate my way from Apple, mostly because of the killing of iPhone mini and the unjust price bump on iPhone 14 lineup. Foldables are the future and sadly, for Apple innovation is the dynamic island… and the Always On display!

      @@ArthropodSpidey - Dude, you're so salty, I thought I was in the ocean. At least when we buy an Android, we're not buying a model that looks the same as the one from 5 years ago. Apple is way too slow to adapt to newer technology, so it's still stuck in its brick form-factor. I never had an issue with security in the decade that I've been with Android. Hardware service and updates are perfectly fine too, especially when you consider that Android allows you to stay with a version for much longer than Apple.
      I have an old 2016 Android phone that I use in conjunction with a 2019 S10e that I got last year. Both allow me to run current apps. You don't get that same flexibility with Apple who loves to slow down its software, lock out its users, and monopolizes the option to repair. With Android, I'm not a slave to one ecosystem, I can customize to my heart's content, I have expandable storage on both my phones, one usb-c cable charger for all my tech gear, plus I get features like Always On Display, reverse wireless charging, fingerprint scanners, headphone jacks, split-screen multitasking, and so on.
      Android was also the first to beat Apple to the market with other innovations like Qi, fast charging, NFC, 4G LTE, 5G, OLED displays, face-recog, in-screen fingerprint sensors, water resistance, multi-lens cameras, true multitasking, copy + paste, multiwindow support. Apple is way behind. If you wanna stick to your fruity brand, do you. The rest of us are happy enjoying our little green robot.

    Just got my flip4 1 day ago. Wanted to get it last year but finally got it. Totally love it! It's so pretty! As for battery 1 day of normal use while WFH by the end of the day I still have 50% left. The crease doesn't bother me at all you barely even see it when use. Would be interesting to experience how it's like used when im outside.
    Edit: From 6:30am fully charged till 7:30pm left with 25% battery. In between using spotify, youtube, check notifications here and there, used it for 1hr meeting. I think it held up pretty good for a full day use. Finally can put my phone in my back pocket without half of the phone sticking out.

    The main 2 things that kept me from getting one is the battery life and the durability of the hinge\screen. So far on what I've been hearing is that they've fixed the battery issue;so now if they've done better on the screen\hinge then I'll think of getting one. Still paying off my S22+ so it'll give me time to deside by then. Would love to see more future videos in it's durability.

    I will be reviewing this soon. Keep in mind that the flip 4 is more durable. If you have a 1 year old flip and they are giving a good trade in, you might want to take it. The Durability improvements are not too noticeable right away but it may impact you in the long run. And the bigger battery is a big key

    and when the top screen is angled to directly the level of your eyes, yes satisfaction 😏

    If you're getting the Flip 4, just be wary of the screen protector bubbling up at the crease. I finally removed mine on my Flip 3 today at Ubreakifix AKA Asurion for free. Took only 2 minutes. It was only getting bigger and annoying to look at. We'll see how it holds up without one but I do take really care of my phones and Gorilla Glass Victus is very scratch resistant.
    Had I got the screen protector replacement, it would just bubble up again after 6 to 12 months depending on much I use it which surprisingly isn't much. I think if you only use one phone, you need to go for the Flip 4 over 3 just from the battery life alone. Since I carry two phones daily, I don't need the battery life upgrade.
    My biggest concern without a screen protector is if the black cracks start developing on the crease? From what I've read, Flip 3 is durable enough without it unlike the previous two gens. It is water-resistant and the display was much stronger than the previous ones, so I'm guessing most likely not. Be a rare case if it happens.
    If it does crack, then c'est la vie. They're just material things. Will have it recycled. Warranty expires tomorrow. Will be using my other four phones that still works fine in 2022. I do believe Flip 3 will hold up well without a screen protector. If it doesn't, then I know for sure it will be the last Z Flip I'll ever buy. I'll stick to the Motorola Razr line. I much prefer their cover displays.
    My Flip 3's crease does feel less shallower without the screen protector. It actually feels nicer. Our screen protector for these flip phones is basically when they're closed.

I'll be getting the same phone plus I resent Apple for alienating those who prefer smaller phones by getting rid of their Mini line-up.

    This is my first flip phone and the camera quality doesn't bother me because it's better than my last phone 😂 the battery life definitely made me finally want to get the phone. It lasts me quite a while before chargung it. I alsp love how it can fit in all my bags or my pockets nicely. The only time I see people go like "the fold factor doesn't seem appealing because I can fit my phone in my pocket" are typically men who have larger pockets.

    I haven't loved a phone as much I loved my flip 3 since the Note 3. The only issue that I have with the flip 4 is that it's a little thicker. Not much of one. Definitely not something I would deduct a point for, and certainly a nice trade off for that battery boost. But my feeling with the flip series is that the more compact they are capable of being while being able to present a I nice large screen, the better. For me, that's what its all about with this line of phones.

Thing is slipperier than snot on ice, wow... fortunately there's a free cover available via credit, so gonna take advantage of the ring case - I think. It really is easy to get attached to it; heck I've not even put the SIM in yet! I'd liked the fold but man, the price.

You don't buy this phone for the specs, you buy this phone for the "wow" factor and to turn heads. I'll say this, if you talk a lot on the phone it is much more comfortable holding after a long conversation and the fact that it can fold at any angle is kind of amazing.

    I would really love to hear the reasoning behind not adding Dex on this $1000 phone... It looks so fun, I love the fact that it provides a big screen and then folds in half ... Just can't get enough of the Flip. But the lack of Dex is a huge no-no for me. And it's not like you can just get the Fold4 instead - it's almost twice as expensive and i don't like the form factor nearly as much... Anyway, i really wish Samsung would stop making these ridiculous compromises. This is a high end device, why not act like it?

    loved my flip 3 for half the year but realized although it fits in my pocket better, it bulges out more than a regular phone. it also feels heavier in the pocket. battery life did suck and many people did have the screen start flickering on them after a year. i realized i needed a smaller phone so went with the pixel 6a, the asus zenfone 9 was too pricey. I will miss the cool flex mode and photo preview in the back when taking photos though! Those two features were a head turner.

    The crease there is for a reason. Samsung said that the waterproof feature will be gone if the crease has to be removed. They have already tried what Chinese phones are selling but did not apply that creaseless screen. They said they are developing the technology to make creaseless phones which are also waterproof. In other words it can be creaseless at the cost of waterproof feature.
