[ad_1] Meanwhile both Keith and Gabriel spoke about the device’s portability and premium feel. Gabriel had a lot more to add: “I dislike the size of new phones and having massive, inflexible slabs in my pocket at all times, and the Z Flip is a welcome (and significant) departure from this. The thing is incredibly […]

YouTube now takes full advantage of Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip
[ad_1] If you splurged on a Galaxy Z Flip, you’ll be glad to hear that it’s now a better video viewing machine. Google is rolling out an updated YouTube app for Android that supports the foldable smartphone’s Flex mode. Prop up the Z Flip’s top half and you can watch clips hands-free, with comments and […]
Samsung will reportedly make the next Galaxy Fold more affordable
[ad_1] Reports that Samsung was working on a Fold successor first came out in March when Bloomberg published a report that said the company was developing two new foldable display phones. One of those devices turned out to be the recently released Galaxy Z Flip. The other hasn’t been announced yet. What’s more, Bloomberg said it would fold around the […]
Samsung temporarily shuts down phone factory following coronavirus case
[ad_1] Chip and display factories across South Korea aren’t affected, Samsung said. Gumi isn’t far from Daegu, the heart of the current outbreak in the country. The Gumi plant makes higher-end handsets primarily destined for the South Korean market, but they include foldable phones like the Galaxy Z Flip and Galaxy Fold. That could pose […]
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip review: Admire it, don’t buy it
[ad_1] Practically speaking, there are only two notable shortcomings. First, its resolution: at 2636×1080, it’s far less pixel-dense than a Galaxy S20, but you’ll probably never notice the difference unless your nose is pushed up against the screen. The other is that, presumably because of its odd, 21.9:9 aspect ratio, some apps don’t scale to […]
Samsung says the Galaxy Z Flip will be back in stock on Friday
[ad_1] Last week Samsung announced and almost immediately released its foldable Galaxy Z Flip, but only in “limited” quantities that dried up almost as soon as they appeared, unless you spot one in a store somewhere. Now Samsung says that tomorrow, on February 21st it will make more of the $1,380 devices available online, coincidentally […]
The Galaxy Z Flip’s hinge fibers aren’t enough to keep dust out
[ad_1] We’ve asked Samsung for comment. iFixit is planning to publish a full teardown in the early hours of February 19th that might shed more light. The Z Flip does have water-resistant circuitboards, at least, so it’s less likely to die if you’re unfortunate enough to spill water on your $1,380 pride and joy. This […]
The Galaxy Z Flip’s glass screen isn’t very durable
[ad_1] Nelson went so far as to suggest that Samsung wasn’t using real glass, speculating that it might be a glass-polymer hybrid. This struck him as misleading — if you describe a display as glass, shouldn’t it behave like glass? It may be more complicated than that, however. In a response to Engadget, Samsung reiterated […]
Love at first fold: 24 hours with Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip
[ad_1] Things I already love Even after just a relatively short time with the Z Flip, when I use my Pixel, it feels weird that I can’t fold it shut. I even find myself trying to bend my Pixel, my fingers itching to fold the Z Flip like they’re searching for a phantom fidget spinner. […]
Galaxy Z Flip teardown video looks inside Samsung’s latest foldable
[ad_1] Unsurprisingly, whatever Samsung learned across two versions of the Galaxy Fold appears to have been valuable in making the Z Flip. While there’s still a lot of parts inside and quite a bit of glue, it’s considerably more repairable, with many parts accessible simply by removing the back covers. The Galaxy Z Flip’s special […]
