I was happy until I realized you were partnered with Casetify. They are a dirty company. Stealing products for there own gain, marketing them as there own. Then denying allegations that were clearly the truth. Please research companies you do sponsorships with. Do not support a company with a tarnished name and don’t let them ruin you along with them.

@@Regisslove I’m not that well versed in photos, but the photos do look a little sharp on the flip. Slightly digitally enhanced probably. I had a friend take a selfie and I thought it looked great because it uses the rear camera instead of the front face camera. I still have my iphone 13 pro and personally I thought the quality is slightly better on the flip 5. My 13 pro camera is starting to get fuzzy and blurry with photos now. So all in all, I like my Flip 5. In my opinion.

Even as an iPhone user since day one I can admit, Samsung is making some very interesting moves and trying new things, which is cool. The innovation with Samsung's devices it really cool to watch from a distance.

You have the same problem as I have been an android user since day one so the lock-in is real. Wouldn't mind to try an iPhone but I really don't want to buy every book, movie and app all over again. I would however gladly switch over to a new player that doesn't try to actively take you hostage.

@@Flaggyt If you bought your content from Google Play, most of the Google media apps work on iPhone. I have Google Books on my iPhone and it works just fine, I actually prefer it cos you can upload your own books as well rather easily. Might want to look into Play Movies as well on iOS, I think they're platform-agnostic.

I have previously been a long-time Apple iPhone user and was using an iPhone 12 before switching over to this Samsung Z Flip 5. Had went to the Apple stores to try out the iPhone 15s but it didnt differ that greatly to my 12 to warrant the amount of money for me to switch. I then tried out various other phones like Oppo, XiaoMi, Google, Samsung in-store and although intially wasnt that impressed by the Z Flip 5 and thought it felt pretty flimsy, decided to blind buy because of the form factor and honestly this is my best buy ever! So many customisations and functions on the Android system, meets my main needs of just texting, taking good photos and watching videos- having the ability to do so much things using the front screen is amazing as well. Especially love watching Netflix and taking selfies with friends using the front screen and look forward to using it to probably take some vlogs as well! Highly recommended!

Excel on the front screen sold me. Wow! You'd never catch me doing that but seeing something that wild function well on that little screen? Nice!

I've recently switched from the Note 10 plus to this Flip 5 couple weeks ago and it's been a real breath of fresh air having a slick pocket sized smartphone that could do everything my note 10 could. I've been using the front screen more and more for everyday things with no problems so far. It feels right having a phone this size like the good old days, I don't think I will get a normal sized smartphone again. I know the flip doesnt have 2x optical zoom and smaller battery but i haven't noticed any difference in camera quality but I'm no whizz on photography. I'm just hoping this phone will last long term as I'm hoping to keep this phone for a few years. I hope the flip/hinge, battery life and the inside screen holds out which are my worries but the build quality on this flip phone feels incredible. One thing I've noticed the flip doesn't have Samsung Dex. I hope their's an update it the future to install that Btw definitely gonna have a look at those cases, to survive a test like that?! Quite brilliant cases 👏

I'm also planning to hold onto my Flip5 for a few years, at least 2 maybe longer. My previous phone was the S20+ that I had for 3 years and that was going strong right till I sold it when I got the Flip5. I'm also worried about long term durability but it feels great and most interactions I have are on the cover screen rather than main screen so I'm not unfolding it that much at all - hopefully that counts towards longevity.

I decided my next purchases on ANYTHING to be what i would love to have and not what the specs are or what the online comparisons say or based on brand etc. I remember black mirror episode "vipers" where the guy was using a similar phone. I was waiting for the moment to be able to use the zflip screen more than a smartwatch and just today i got my z5! So excited to start using it and never open it again whole 😂. Since its a flagship phone i am sure it will last 4 years at least for sure without any problems.

@@nomilktea000 Yesterday I switched from the Note 10(not plus) to this flip. I was a little hesitant at first, but after 1 day I'm falling more and more in love with it. I have small hands and this just feels better, even when flipped open. I was able to flip it open with one hand, but now that I have a case on it, that's much more difficult but I'm okay with that. I love having the front panel to do most anything with but mostly just to quickly play music, respond to text and make quick calls without even having to open anything up. Take your time, do your research, pay attention to the constructive criticism but in the end I think you'll be pleased.

Respect for chucking your phone to test the cover 😂

You're right about protecting the cover screen. I find using the cover display about 60% of the time since installing Good Lock. I will be adding a screen protector tomorrow to give it some protection. It has been great coming from the Flip 4..

Welcome to the club guys😎🥂 I'm a samsung user since like 2017 I think and some helpful tips are Look into launchers, they're awesome (they change your entire UI of the phone) Themes are great to instantly change all your icons, keyboard, etc GoodLock is good for the purpose of the flip 5 OR anything you wanna customize that samsung doesn't offer in settings

I love my flip 5 pre ordered mine as soon as they dropped and have been using mine since it arrived on the 10th of August as my daily driver the camera is more then enough for me as I mostly am just taking family snapshots of my kids

The hinge does feel like its loosened up after so many times of opening/folding but by far I love it. I upgraded directly from a Samsung Note 8. Battery does seem to drain out quickly if i use the main screen for mails and calls

I plan on playing OSRS on this device, glad to see you have it installed 😁

My flip 5 will be here tomorrow. I checked out the Razr in the store and just seem like a toy to me in comparison . In addition something not mentioned much is the Samsung has full 5G mmwave, which is still a thing for someone in a big city to get maximum speed. The Razr is saddled with only sub-6. I have a feeling Samsung made two intentional moves that are garnering "complaints". The first one is they only offer a handful of "authorized" apps for that outer screen... yet with that app from their store, it opens up to all others. I'm sure that's theirvway of saying...we've sanctioned only these apps to work but if you want to go into experimental mode-- here's your pathway. Also, the 720p screen people are complaining about was likely done on purpose to try to save battery knowing its ONLY 3 in. You don't need a 1080 screen for a 3in display!

Just got one of these this week and loving it so far, I traded "down" from a 22 Ultra - I just never used all the bells and whistles that the Ultra had (the spen, etc.) so I didn't think I would miss anything. BUT, there is one thing that I miss and that is DEX. I didn't use it a ton, but there were certain use cases for it. Although the Flip does have USB-C video out, it just mirrors the device screen, its functional but not as good. Other than that, its an amazing phone and you are right about the cover screen. With the cover screen designer I can make it look pretty much however I want and with the Good Lock Launcher, I find myself using my phone almost as much closed as I do open. I still can't flip it open with my thumb, just need more practice I guess ;-) Great review video!

Great review n comparison with the moto Razr plus. I bought the flip 5 n I love it

Upgrading from the fold 3 to the flip 5, pretty excited for a different form factor

Great review and made even better by the fact your play Scape and were in the shooting star discord, I bet you love the update haha How does OSRS play on the outside screen?

Super amazing review. Didn't need to skip a second!

Waiting for mine to come in and I’m absolutely excited

Best video of the Flip 5 yet.

just upgraded from the flip 3 to this. I was very close to "folding" and just get the Fold 5 but I feel like the 6 is gonna be the actual big change for that lineup. Either way this new external screen on the Flip5 is a game changer and I haven't even finished the data transfer.

I upgraded from the Flip 3. I expect to use the Flip 5 for at least 2 years. Using the cover screen a lot (Good Lock is a must have app), I have plenty of battery life.

I've only had my Flip 5 for a week or so and so far I love it. Had the Flip 3 a year ago and it was terrible. Screen protector cracked twice and and the external screen was next to useless. This one is a massive improvement and as long as the screen protector stays intact I'll be a happy man.

Thanks alot. Focussing on the outter display was helpful as I don't use my phone much, I just want it to fit into my pocket and be able to see all the notifications easily (maybe check the weather too),

Thanks for vid. Do I need a case that protects the hinge? Or is that a non-issue?

I’m really liking mine in the first few days, especially the folded front screen after downloading good lock, I’m 72 yrs old but still a cellphone nerd, I got a clear case and liquid screen protect, it’s handy and just fun to use. Looking forward to learning more features. Great review brother , thanks.

I love my Flip 4 but once I heard the Flip 5 was going to have a bigger screen I waited patiently for it to drop. I traded my F4 so fast and once I got my Flip 5 I couldn’t put it down! Good lock helps add all the apps you want with no problems and if you love customization like I do it’s soooooo much fun ans will keep you busy just styling it alone. It’s definitely a head turner because people will be very curious about it. But I can’t say it enough how much I love the Flip 5❤Samsung did good with this one

Great upgrade for most but I love my fold 4 ❤

I love my Flip 5. I dropped it once, 30 cm onto a carpet floor, so far it looks like nothing bad happened but it tought me a lesson: the device is super small but quite heavy and can fall out easily. I think I need a case with a ring. Besides that: it's so great to use it one-handed for almost everything. Deezer, KZread (music but also other videos relying mainly on audio), mySugr, public transportation, google maps, and so on. I use it folded like 90% of the time.

I went from the s9 to the flip 5, i work in a warehouse, lots of dry concrete, it still hasn't failed me, or taken on damage beyond dust accumulating under my case, i was originally anxious about the inner screens durability, but in all this time , used open and closed, left open overnight, the inner screen is undamaged

You're a madman throwing that beautiful phone like that.

Looks so cool ❤

God bless you awsome video It helped me so much with a negative thoughts

Does the inner display have a built-in screen protector?

I have to wait until march until i'm eligible to trade in my Fold 4. Since I had the Flip 3 and 4, i'm seriously considering getting the Flip 5.

One downside I noticed after using it for some time is that in term of replacing point n shoot camera, regular phone is better than flip. U avoid the 1 additional step of needing to open it first. Keeping it open is an option but u risk damaging the screen in case of a drop. Flip screen phone case don't have thick lips protecting the inner screen for obvious reason. Additionally although the size is cut in half the thickness is increased compared to regular phone. And while regular phone stick out near the lip of your pocket making retrieval easier when wearing fitting pants, the flip due to half of the size slip down deeper into the pocket making retrieval more difficult.

I have it and Its honestly the best of both worlds, I can have a compact pocket phone that I can check notifications and reply to messages quickly and then if I have to view something larger its convenient being able to open it up for bigger screen.

After having it for a few months I can recommend it to anyone. For durability a lot of phone reviewers complain because they don't use any case, its very strong and any phone will scratch if you have it against a car key, the back is glass lol
