Awesome capabilities and wow factor

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The capabilities and features on this phone are beyond what I will ever explore, but it's still cool to know that I have them. Just the fact that when people see it, they are amazed by it, and there is a wow factor to that. I'm not a very technological person.And even though I won't learn everything it can do.It still helps me on a daily basis. The phone also makes it very easy and simple to learn even with the complex and extensive features that it offers. My favorite thing to do with this phone is to open it up and use it to watch sporting events, especially on work or vacation trips while in commute (Never while I'm behind the wheel of course 😉 lol). Also, while filling out certain forms and reading things. The open fold makes it ten times easier to interact with. There is even some things that I can do with digital design that you shouldn't be able to do with a cellphone. Hands down The best technology I've ever purchased, and in my opinion, the best cellphone out there. Nothing even comes close.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First and foremost, I am a Samsung lover - the majority of my appliances and all of my phones and tvs are Samsung products. I have also been a lover of Samsung's large phone series, beginning with the Note3, so I have knowledge, loyalty, and hope for the brand. The Fold5 I own is wonderful and a real workhorse across multiple applications. I have had zero OS or computing issues, with plenty of power to multi-task or binge. That said, while a great phone overall, the Fold series needs work and is in danger of being outpaced in the market. My crease is very noticeable and has become a touchscreen challenge when not using the SPen. It seems the 6 has carried on the same issue, and that is where my concern comes in. There are brands coming out with folding phones that are lighter in weight and have eliminated the crease issue on the inner screen. While others who don't use the phone may think this is petty or a "what did you expect" issue, for Fold owners it is a big deal. I have had to use my pen to edit this review due to the decreased sensitivity and precision from the crease. If the Fold7 or 8 (whatever the next in the series is) can fix this issue and come up to par with the market then I will happily stay a Fold user and advocate. But this is the first time in years that I considered a different brand. For now, I will grin and bear it, and enjoy the other high quality features the Fold series offers. Here's to hoping things improve!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Fold 5 is excellent it does so muchI love it. The 3 screen at once is a big help when multi tasking. Samsung Smart devices is an excellent product to have.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Middle screen stopped working within a month. Both my husband and myself bought the same phone. Same thing happened on both.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've owned the Samsung Galaxy Fold 5 for just over a year now. I don't think I'd ever go back to a small screen again. I also have a Samsung Galaxy Watch that allows me to answer calls, read and respond to text messages, control my audio that also runs through my phone. The seamless transition between the two are Incredible. You can keep your awesome, large screen phone in your pocket and answer almost any type of call. After owning both, I feel like I'm spoiled because everything I try to do is very simple to accomplish. I wouldn't go with anything else. As a matter of fact, I'm going to be upgrading to the Fold 6 this week.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall the phone is great traveling and then some more with the convenience with watching video or needing to have a split screen with two applications running at the same time.
