Design
Just by looking at Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 5G, you wouldn’t be able to see a difference between it and its predecessor. The two have basically the same dimensions with this one coming in a little thicker than before yet 0.8 millimeters thinner than the Galaxy Fold 2 when folded. Samsung was able to reduce the gap between the two halves of the screen when it refined its hinge mechanism. This one is basically two phones in one so its 271 grams weight should not come as a surprise.
Durability is a greater concern with foldable but Samsung says it used stronger aluminum in the folds frame, streamlined its hinge, and redesigned the layers of the screen to make the device sturdier. This tablet/phone will also survive some droplets of water thanks to its new IPX8 water resistance (up to 1.5m for 30 mins). It comes in colors Phantom Black, Phantom Silver, Phantom Green, Thom Browne Edition, and Wooyoungmi Edition.
Foldable display
Samsung used an under-display camera here or UDC that can camouflage beneath pixels. This is an attempt to give you a more immersive full-screen experience. This is great since you won’t have to the little hole that most modern phones have for their selfie sensors. This screen is bright, colorful, and crisp making it a pleasant panel. And with S-Pen support, the Fold 3 screen is more useful for those who like to write notes or sketch diagrams.
The S-Pen is sold separately so bear that in mind. The S-Pen is a generally helpful tool. Samsung applied a new stretchable PET protector on the panel. Altogether the company said the Galaxy Z Fold3’s screen is 80% more durable than its predecessor. The protector completely covers the display. So you won’t see the edges tempting you to peel it off. Outside the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3, 5G has a 6.2 inch 2268 x 832 display, which now refreshes at 120 Hertz. It also uses a Dynamic AMOLED panel which supports HDR 10 Plus as opposed to previous generations’ Super AMOLED. The faster screen makes scrolling super smooth.
Aside from these upgrades, the Fold 3’s external display is basically the same as its predecessor’s. Which means it has a similarly narrow aspect ratio. So you’ll see fewer of them on the page at once. When you need more room, you can open up the fold to use the 7.6 inches inch Dynamic AMOLED panel inside. Like the outside screen, this also has a 120 Herz refresh rate and runs at 2208 x 1768 pixels.
Performance
Whether using the outside screen or the internal panel, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is mostly snappy/. This is because of its Qualcomm SM8350 Snapdragon 888 5G (5 nm) processor and 12GB of RAM. It delivers a smooth performance. You should also have little worry about running out of charge. It generally sticks around for at least a day and a half. Sometimes only conking out after two days. It lasted 14 hours and three minutes on our video rundown battery test. Also, this foldable runs Android 11, upgradable to Android 12, One UI 4.0. It has an Adreno 660 GPU and an Octa-core (1×2.84 GHz Kryo 680 & 3×2.42 GHz Kryo 680 & 4×1.80 GHz Kryo 680) CPU.
Cameras
The fact that Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 5G has five cameras onboard makes it feel excessively an over-achiever. There’s a 10-megapixel selfie camera, the UDC which is just 4 megapixels sharp, and a trio of 12-megapixel sensors on the rear, including regular ultrawide and telephoto lenses. Most of these cameras perform just as well as iPhone and pixel flagships. Delivering bright, colorful pictures in most situations. The Fold 3 rear cameras are comparable to their conventionally shaped counterparts. The selfie sensor also delivered pleasantly crisp, vibrant photos.
Our take
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is all grown up and stronger than ever. It’s had time to learn from the mistakes of the previous generation foldable. And Samsung has devoted a tone of research into fortifying, the foldable screen hinge, and overall build. With Galaxy Z Fold3 5G it has even added support for the S-Pen as well as water resistance and more optimized software.
