  • Expensive, Bulky vs. traditional phone, Still lacks dust resistance,
  • The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 fixes some of our biggest concerns with its predecessor with enhanced durability and improvements to the cover display, but it remains too expensive and bulky to recommend for many buyers...

  • Abstract:  Last year's Galaxy Z Fold 2 was a phone I thoroughly enjoyed, thanks to major improvements over the original and the fact that we were living during a time where sitting on the couch, not stepping into a public toxic death plume of air was the norm. It wa...

  • Sturdy and water-resistant build, Smooth performance and good cameras, Under-display camera makes viewing immersive, Useful software features,
  • Heavy and bulky, Cover screen feels cramped, Still needs careful handling,
  • I think that using the Z Fold3 as a daily driver can enhance your productivity and entertainment-based usage, especially if you spend a lot of time on the move. That large screen does help quite a bit, plus the fact that it's one device effectively doing...
