Not only does it have a higher resolution, but it also enables much more detailed pictures, especially in difficult lighting conditions. However, the image quality is acceptable for video calls, but it's better to use the external display's 10 MP lens for selfies. In return, it only has 4 MP at its disposal. Samsung uses the same principle as the ZTE Axon 20 (32 MP), but it manages to hide the camera a bit better under the subpixels. The Fold3 5G is available in Phantom Black, Silver, and Green.įor the first time, Samsung has hidden a UD camera (UDC: Under-Display Camera) under the main display, which is meant to provide an uninterrupted view of the whole panel. Nonetheless, the foldable smartphone should be handled with care, which is why we decided against making stronger twisting attempts or applying more pressure. We no longer get the feeling of holding a raw egg in our hands, which we had with the first Galaxy Z Fold. Workmanship is very good as well, with gap dimensions being snug and the hinge moving smoothly. However, we had to exert a surprisingly firm amount of pressure for this to happen in our initial tests (see video below). The latter's variants have a retractable tip in order to absorb excess pressure applied to the panel. Still, the flexible panel leaves a much more stable impression, which can be attributed in part to the fact that the Fold3 is now compatible with the S Pen. The corresponding instructions are displayed when the smartphone is set up. A protective film has again been applied to the folding display on the inside, and it shouldn't be removed. When closed, the Samsung folding phone leaves a robust impression and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass Victus on the outside. Only the last few millimeters cause the Fold3 to close completely. Opening the smartphone is very easy, and the angle can be adjusted almost without any restrictions. However, it's still not dust-proof, which turns out to be difficult due to the hinge. The smartphone's IPX8 certification is new, and it indicates that the device is water-resistant.
This is also where the camera hump is located, which protrudes 2.1 millimeters (~0.08 in) from the case, making this the thickest part of the foldable (16.75 mm/~0.66 in). When it comes to the height, Samsung specifies the highest point on the hinge side, while the opposing side is flatter at 14.1 millimeters (~0.56 in). When folded, it measures 158.2 x 67.1 x 16 mm (~6.2 x 2.6 x 0.63 in), which makes it comparatively thick, but also quite narrow and very comfortable to hold. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is a bit lighter and slimmer than its predecessor. Other manufacturers have yet to introduce similar devices.
The Galaxy Z Fold3 no longer has any real competition in its device class, since Huawei's smartphone division has been politically eliminated for the time being.
You'll have to pay an additional $100 if you want to double that.
In addition to a current high-end SoC, the lower-priced version comes with 256 GB of storage. The Galaxy Z Fold3 is very similar to its predecessor in terms of looks, but it's available in more color variants, and it's also a bit lighter and slimmer. As early as last year, the Fold2 appeared to be more mature, and with the new Fold3, Samsung finally wants to reach a broad audience, which isn't only reflected in the build quality, but in the price as well, since this latest addition has become even more affordable starting at an MSRP of 1,799 Euros (~$1,799). After the debut of the Galaxy Z Fold in 2019, Samsung had to put up with a lot of criticism for its first own folding phone.
