Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 Review: A Big Screen Inside And Out

Samsung’s popular folding-screen flip phone gains a bigger, more useful screen on the outside for its fifth generation, while keeping its stylish looks with a sleeker gapless design when shut. The new Z Flip 5 costs £1,049 ($999/A$1,649) – £50 more than last year’s model – and comes with twice the starting storage and a collection of small but meaningful upgrades. There is no doubt that folding tech still commands a premium, with prices similar to high-end Androids and iPhones. The Flip 5 feels like a plush piece of technology, and more refined than previous versions.

YouTuber subjects the Galaxy Z Flip 5 to a week of continuous folding to see when it breaks

If you’re wondering how many times Samsung’s latest foldable flip phone, the Galaxy Z Flip 5, might survive when subjected to the stresses and strains of the real world, YouTuber Mrkeybrd has an answer for you: 401,146. Between August 2nd and today, his channel has run a livestream of the phone being continuously folded and unfolded by a series of testers. Initially, Samsung’s foldable was being compared to Motorola’s recently released Razr Plus (known as the Razr 40 Ultra outside of the US), but the screen on Motorola’s foldable died after just 126,266 cycles. Mrkeybrd’s test is hardly as scientific as the kinds of robotic automated folding and unfolding Samsung has shown off in its promotional materials for the Flip 5 and Fold 5, but that’s kind of the point. The experiment subjected...

So you'll have the option to watch Instagram stories, TikTok videos, Snapchat content, and the portrait video recordings from your camera roll exploded on a moderately big screen — without heinous pillar boxing black bars on the left and right sides. The Sero initially made its introduction in Korea, yet is coming stateside and somewhere else in the west this year. Before it was an idea, however, Samsung thinks there's something to th...

The documentation the tech giant submitted to the US Patent and Trademark Office indicates foldable gadget that looks progressively like an average pair of glasses - with a lot thicker frames to accommodate its electronic components - than the Samsung Gear VR. While the last item could end up being inconceivably extraordinary, the present design is an eyepiece that automatically switches on at whatever point it's unfolded. So long as one of the pair's temples is unfolded, the glasses' projector (mounted on the temple) would beam pictures on the little display placed over the wearer's field of view.
