ALMOST Great, but...
on December 22, 2023
Posted by: PastorMike
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have upgraded every few years since the infamous (and my favorite) Note 8. What I love about the fold is the massive real estate of the screen and the brilliant display. This alone makes everything else seem like a minor issue, and is great when wanting to share photos with a group, share ideas, type using the large keyboard (great for large hands, and those like myself whose vision isn't what it once was). The phone works well, has the latest UI updates and is as fast as they come. The battery life is very good
The few features that you'll want to look at more closely though if you are looking to upgrade to this, are how much the folding display bothers you. There is definitely a visible line where the screen unfolds. For the most part, it doesn't distort anything, but depending on the angle and brightness, it can be seen, but isn't obtrusive. With a bright screen, the seam line disappears.
The phone is thicker than most. That also means it is, or at a minimum feels heavier. Again, if you are a front pocket person, not a huge deal. If you are a back pocket person, try before you buy. Depending on your level of rear 'cush' ;), you may find it too thick.
When folded, you have a single front display (the double-wide display is separate and inside). When I try typing on that smaller than usual screen, I make tons of mistakes trying to hit the small letters on the tiny keyboard.
Unfortunately, the cameras are a step down from the S23 Ultra, with far less zoom

Z fold phone
on December 22, 2023

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my second Z Fold and I will buy these phones as long as they make them. I do so much more on my phone because of its size and no longer need a phone and a tablet. I would recommend to anyone who wants more screen size.

Versatile amazing device
on December 22, 2023

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always been a Galaxy fan and used different Galexy series for last 4-5 phones. Although not someone who always love getting the newest phone when it came out to the market, I could not resist the temptation when I saw the Fold 5 this time, especially the one in light blue color. For someone used to the Note Ultra, the folded front screen feels small initially but I soon get used to it and it turned out to be much easier to hold in one hand than my old one. And it is still big enough to do most of the quick stuff like calls, messaging and emails, etc. I used the fully unfolded wide screen for multitasking, watching videos. It is a bit too wide to hold and type normally for someone like me with small hands, but it is still acceptable. Besides I can always close and work on the front folded screen. Both screens are such good definition and quality that my friends' phones could be compare regardless of models. The folding location also not easy to notice when watching videos. I love it so far because it is so versatile that give me the ease to use on front screen but also close to a Tablet experience when unfolded. The only thing I wish could be better are the alignment/sync of apps on front screen vs unfolded screen. Apps do not show up in same location when closed or open which is not the best CX in my opinion. Also some apps are not fully supported on wide screen but that is not related to the phone itself, and most apps work perfectly in both situations.
