Z flip durability with a good use

[Roosterman]

Trading up for the Flip 3 to the 5, the outerscreen is huge! And very functional.

Rumors is that it will be bigger.

Is bigger meaning bigger battery!

Supposed to have a bigger battery along with a newer chip (Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 for Galaxy) which should make for longer battery life. The latest that I have seen on the screen is that it will be the same size as the Flip 5. That said, I have had the Flip 3, 4, and 5 and each model has had improved software so you can do more. I am planning to upgrade to the Flip 6 as well!

Because of the limitations of the outer screen I actually opted to use the Motorola razor plus when it came out but the build quality is just not the same as Samsung flips and folds

Yes, the outer screens on the 3 and 4 were basically worthless, but I use the outer screen on the 5 all the time. I have 16 of my most used apps on the screen (thanks to Good Lock) and use it quite a bit.

That too, but the screen will be the size of the Motorola flip. I'm down for it.

Same...I've used the moto RAZR plus,got at launch HOWEVER, and still Samsung offers much better build quality! Something I've noticed. But the outer screen was way more functional.

Maybe it's a "ME" thing but 8 kept on tur ING the outer screen on via taps. That drove me nuts. Switched back to flip 4 and not accidental turning on outer screen.

Yeah. I'm switching from iOS. Mixed with excitement and nervousness.

Anyone have this phone here. Confirm there is no zoom capability on the camera? That really is a damper on my excitement for these phones.

 

[rjack22]

My Flip 5 can zoom in on things.

 

[Seeker336]

Yes, just tried mine and the main camera will zoom up to 10.0x.

That's weird I saw an article that said Samsung was working on zoom for the camera. What x zoom does it have?

 

[Hardhat Harry]

Zoom goes from 0.5x to 10.0x

Good to know. This was a big worry for me. Dumb article I don't know what they were referring to.

Was the article from an Apple centric site?
