One thing I haven't seen anyone write about is just how light the device is. It's feather light compared to the S21 Ultra and feels A LOT lighter than my Fold³s. It's refreshingly light and I envision using it when weight matters. It even feels lighter than my iPhone 12 Mini in its Pelican case.

I'm surprised others haven't mentioned the weight.
 
You definitely notice how light it is. I've seen a few comment on it, but like you said there hasn't been a big statement or mention to let people know how light it is. The pocket-able factor is what makes this phone a keeper to me.
 
I did a quick test to weigh three phones. (note: no phones were harmed in this unscientific test. Nor was the scale calibrated to US Dept. of Weights and Measures standards)

Note20 Ultra - 7.44oz
Flip3 - 6.53oz
iPhone 11 - 6.74oz

Funny thing is that the iPhone feels heavier than the rest.

Your right , it does feel light .
 
Pocket-ability has never been a big draw for me because of dust and lint (I've pocketed phones before only to have them come out dusty) but it seems that that the Flip³ is almost perfect for the pocket. Almost because we don't have that dust rating yet.
 
It's so light that I've found myself looking for my phone .....
then realizing that it's in my pocket.

Find my mobile lol...


I love the portability.. Yesterday was not a great battery day I hammered at it with too much so there is some adjusting as this is not my Fold 3... But a bump to go and I love this phone...
 
Now that I've had it a couple of days I am thinking of how I'll use it. I find myself looking for it even when I have my Fold³s. The portability IS the draw. It's so small and light (relatively). It could be my main carry around and when I want more screen reach for the Folds. Whatever, eats a neat toy and I'm glad I decided to get it.
