Samsung just recently launched their 3rd generation of foldable series in 2021 and they have so far proved to be awesome devices.
These phones truly have the potential to bring back the crown to Samsung back which currently Xiaomi owns.These phones truly can become game changers for Samsung.
Let's dive deep into it!We will discuss it in points:
#1)DESIGN:
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is arguably the most fashionable in recent times.This phone makes you stand out in the crowd.One of our readers shared his experience how he is still asked which phone he is using after people around see it.
The Fold 3 is no exception.The inner folding screen just adds to its flare.And this unique form factor is still new for many in developing countries like India and African markets.
This time Samsung has done pretty comendable job with the phone.The hinge which helps in flipping and folding the phone has definitely improved.The design is definitely an A+ in our books.

#2)DISPLAY:
As folding phones these phones have flexible displays.This is the USPs of these folding phones.
The Galaxy Z Flip 3 packs in a FHD+,120 Hz primary display.This is a AMOLED panel.The high refresh rate is properly optimized for this phone making it feel buttery smooth.The display has almost no bezels and the punch-hole camera is also too small.The crease on this phone is still there but it becomes kinda invisible within just 3-4 days of usage.
There is a very small secondary display on the back near the cameras.You can use it as an Always-On display,to see your important notifications as well as control music.This secondary display comes in handy too while clicking pictures as you can use it as a view-finder for selfies.
The Galaxy Fold 3 packs in a QHD+,120 Hz,Dynamic 2X AMOLED inner pannel.Samsung had truly taken this foldable game to the next level.The crease is still there but as we said,it becomes non-existent in no time.The selfie camera is invisible this time as they have put it under the display.Moreover,they have also made it stronger by 80% than yester year.
The outer display on the Fold 3 is a HD+,120 Hz panel.This is also a Dynamic 2X AMOLED display.The display also brings in with it 1500 nits of brightness.
Both the displays on the device are HDR 10+ certified too.

#3)BUILD QUALITY:
Build quality of foldable phones have always been questionable.With the inner screen made of glastic and no official IP
certification,consumers had resisted buying these phones.
But this time,Samsung has taken massive strides to make these phones more durable and reinforced.
The back of the Galaxy Z Flip 3 is made up of Gorilla Glass Victus.The frame is made up of Armour Aluminium which Samsung is telling the material for the pros.Moreover,this time the phone is rated as IPX8 water resistant.
The Fold 3 also has all the above features.And it also has Gorilla Glass Victus on the front screen too.The hinges are also reinforced in both the devices.
☑️☑️☑️
#4)PERFORMANCE:
These phones are performance beasts as they come with top of the line specs.
Both the Flip 3 and Fold 3 are powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 888 processor.Based on 5nm process,these chips are very power-efficient.
The base variant of the Z Fold 3 comes with 12 GB of top of the line LPDDR5 RAM and 256 GB of fast UFS 3.1 storage.The Z Flip 3 also comes with such characters except the fact that the RAM is reduced to 8 GB and storage is reduced to 128 GB.However,it is also sufficient.
☑️☑️☑️
#5)CAMERAS:
This section is the primary caveat of the seires.
The Galaxy Z Fold 3 comes with a triple camera setup.All those cameras are of 12 MP resolution.

These includes a primary 12 MP camera with OIS,an ultrawide 12 MP camera camera and a telephoto 2x 12 MP camera with OIS.Think how the cameras on the modern day flagships have features like 8K video recording,laser auto-focus and 10x optical zoom among other.These phones have none of these.
But,these devices have an edge over others.These phones,being foldable have the ability to take selfies from the main cameras too.

#)S-PEN Functionality:
These are the second device of Samsung getting the s-pen functionality after the S21 Ultra.This is nice of Samsung to add this feature as most of the users would like to multi-task on this.However,it comes with too many inconveniences.
The first one being that you need to buy it separately! Irrespective of your earnings,you would n't like to spend an extra $80,right?The second one is that you will get a separate cover with the stylus making it difficult to carry your phone.
❌❌❌
#)BATTERY:
Battery is another weak points of these phones.
The Fold 3 comes with a 4400 mAh battery and considering that this phone has 2 displays,this makes its battery a sore point.Moreover,the Snapdragon chips have always been power hungry chip in comparison to their counterparts.
The Flip 3 comes with a 3300 mAh battery which makes it almost necessary for you to charge it twice a day.
The charging tech is also been quite old now maxing out at just 25 W for the Fold and 15 W for the Flip.This makes it feel them just 2019.
❌❌❌
However,after all these these phones are just awesome phones.You can buy it and you will have no regret!
Still now,these phones have been performing quite well in the market.
