This phone is Awesome!
on December 22, 2023
Posted by: BubbaDonk
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this phone daily for email, texting, social media, gaming, media, and streaming music on my Sonos speakers.
This phone runs so smooth and always ready for anything I throw at it. The Battery life is way better than I thought possible, and I've never even tried it in Battery saving mode. It lasts a full day and always has some left over.
I originally bought the Z-Fold 5 for enhancing and enlarging print, making it easier to read emails and messages. But, the larger screen is also great for streaming video and games.
I'm so glad I waited a few generations to purchase a Fold, the crease is diminishing, the spine has a much better design, making it more rigid and solid. The waterproof design has saved me a couple of times, once even falling into my cereal bowl. I used a dryer on low heat and the USB-C power port was fine.
I can't say enough good things about this phone, and I would recommend it to anyone that is looking for a foldable phone.

I really like this foldable device
on December 22, 2023

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I call this a foldable device because it isn’t just a phone its a tablet a TV a pocket computer It is everything I have wanted in a hand held device. I am a fan of the smaller form factor I went from the notes to the s series ultra because the large screens I do everything on them for work I edit word excel PowerPoint and a larger screen is very helpful. with the fold 5 it is even better I love the optional s pen I use it every day. On my down time I like to play games not cheap games like candy crush graphically demanding games diablo immortal Mario cart tour never missed a beat. dont get me started on how cool and usefull Samsung DEX is now the reason I gave 4 stars not 5 for as big as the phone is it should have included a s-pen that goes into the phone a few generations ago and the inner screen although as great as it is, is very delicate and very hard to find screen protectors that will stay on a folded device thr screen protector is not Samsung’s fault but if the screens were stronger the screen protector would be unnecessary. I would highly recomend this for power users, office folks, Gamers or anyone that wants a tablet that fits in their pocket.

Amazing device
on December 22, 2023
Posted by: islandtourroses
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a long time iPhone user, I have to say that this phone is a breath of fresh air. I'm deeply embedded within the Apple ecosystem so it's highly unlikely that I'll never own an iPhone but I also run a consulting business so I decided to get a second phone to keep things separate and organized. I researched multiple options and ended up with the z fold 5 and I have to say, it's incredible. I find that it's the device that I most often reach for when I need to do something. It's great for multitasking and note taking and seeing that my clients are primarily startups, most of which are operating on a shoestring budget, the google suite of products (sheets, google docs, etc) are heavily relied upon so it's nice to have that level of integration with Android OS. Overall, I love this phone. I've seen opinions online where people say "folding phones are a gimmick" but I can assure you that this is not the case.

Best Phone Ever!!
on December 22, 2023
Posted by: Nomadtech
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have owned several Samsung phones and none have been more satisfying than the Z Fold5. Reading digital books is an experience unlike any other on this phone. The games are responsive and look incredible on the larger screen. Browsing websites on either the front or larger folding screen is a breeze. The fingerprint reader is much better than previous versions and is not hampered by a protective case. Samsung does it again! This is my 5th Samsung phone.

The Z Fold 5(Awesomeness)
on December 22, 2023
Posted by: Theprince
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always been a Samsung fan. No matter what goes on in the media. When this phone was mentioned some time ago, I knew I wanted it. I saw the reviews and the features. I just had to have the phone. There is so much about this phone, that an everyday person can use. It's just not for the gamers and the techies. This phone is just AMAZING.

I really like the folding feature.
on December 22, 2023
Posted by: Dugortguy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use the phone for Amazon Prime movies, Prime, Max, and Parmount+. The clarity of the screen is truly remarkable. The volume needs work. At the highest level, the volume is too soft. Maybe it needs a Baby Boomer feature.
Folding the phone into the smaller screen is great for transportation or on the go communication and portability.
The battery life is impressive, at least now. I expect degradation with age. The charging time is very short. I really appreciate that feature.
The size folded over is surprisingly less than my prior Samsung and is not that much more thick. The pants pocket doesn't wear as quickly.
The cover that I purchased really protects the phone. The original design of the phone was a material factor in the success of the cover.
I expected that the fold would degrade screen quality. I was wrong. No visible degradation occurs.
For Zoom applications, the foldable phone excels. I would readily recommend that this phone be used for on the run Zoom applications for meetings and even attending continuing professional education classes to maintain state licenses.
