I love that samsung is trying to make unique smartphones in an age where they all feel almost the same.

Ive been using my zflip 3 for 5 months and have been loving it. I'd recommend it to anyone who's a light phone user, the crease is there but I've never noticed it unless someone brings it up.

Great review! I honestly don't have a problem with crease. Yes it's there, but it's a folding screen, it's unavoidable. It doesn't really distort my reading or view of the screen unless you're watching hours of Netflix shows. (At that point, get just a tab) I use this at my office desk flipped open, very convenient and responsive when scrolling through emails.

Never had a problem with the crease had this for about six months and have no problem with it don't let the crease throw you off buying this phone

[JadeMoonblood]

I've had mine for 6 months now and no problem with my crease. I still have fun changing the cover screen and lockscreen to gifs. I watch Netflix all the time on it, no problem

[banterreloaded]

Am using the flip one over a year and half...trust me NEVER WAS THE CREASE A BOTHER

[Charles_Mcgee]

Can't wait for you to hit the big time, your videos are super high quality and you answer questions most don't.

i was a skeptic, worried of the durability but i must say after my 6 months. i don't mind the screen, if your worried about the crease you shouldnt have gotten it in the first place. its a folding phone, you cant expect everything to be perfect. performance is great and cameras are good. ive dropped multiple times and thanks to the folded protected screen i would've broken a normal brick style phone by now. if your debating on getting this phone, get it. you wont regret it! only thing to keep in mind the battery isnt the best, i listen to youtube at work with screen off. from 7am to around 1pm the battery is close to dead and needs charged.

The only problem is the small battery. This phone is really great. If they improve battery life in next generation, then this phone will crush every other flagship in the market.

[orangejuice]

my current phone already has a massive crack in the middle of the screen, so i feel like i could get used to the crease pretty quickly, lol

[StarClipZz]

I see it as if the crease is an issue don't get a foldable phone, I love this device and definitely stands out

[russeljao]

I actually like the crease and I find myself running my fingers over it for no reason, just coz I love how it feels

[melisasaatci]

The crease is not noticeable at all unless you're obverving it purposefully and i watch a ton of videos

[depecheddurand]

I think this is for me i`m sick n tired of holding a brick in my hand.Whenever i put my note 9 in my pocket i have to pull my pants up.

[applejacks]

Yeah I've been using this phone for about 4 months now and I'd say my biggest disappointment is the battery life 🙁. I always end up having to charge it between noon and 2pm. But besides that I still think it's an incredible phone and very unique. One of the reasons why I love Samsung, they have a phone for just about everyone.

[TheAnime_Hub]

Definitely getting zflip 4 as my first foldable after I see it and compare sizes with my s10e. I love my s10e and I have to really be wow'd in order to move to another phone.

[bepopxxx]

Why you don't have more subs? Your video are damn high quality!

[Fraiyia]

Had mine 6 months and like it a lot ; the crease doesn’t bother me. I’d recommend the otter case for it .

[JRRRKHO_J]

The screen has held up since I've got it a month after launch and only the screen protector has ripped or creased but was an easy fix to replace the thin screen protector. A phone i recommend to everyone. Still works great and battery is awesome!!

[claudioestevez]

Wow! He really didn't like that crease. I use my phone a lot, A LOT, watching videos, reading, work, etc. I've had this phone for a while, more than 6 months, and it is the best phone I have ever had. I can take pictures with a whole group by just resting the phone on the desired angle, even on rocks. The small screen is amazing. The crease is there but it is nearly invisible, unless you are outside or under heavy light, like a filming studio. I usually read and watch videos in low lit or dark places. I would never buy a phone for the novelty, only if it is practical. I completely disagree with this guy. I think he was just looking to justify a 6 months review. I've had just about every Samsung phone, so when I say the best phone I've ever had I'm comparing with the Samsung family, a few sony, and it's been a while since I had an LG. I have never had an iPhone, but mainly because I like good quality and performance not only a pretty rose gold phone, but that's a whole different topic.
