The editors didn't like
Pen support for inner screen only
No new camera hardware
Expensive given camera specs
Still pricey
Camera hardware not upgraded
No built-in holster for S Pen or charger included
Lacking rear cameras
Pretty awful under-display camera for Zoom calls
Battery life is slightly worse than last year
Awkward aspect ratio displays make multi-tasking less impressive
Heavy and bulky
Cover screen feels cramped
Still needs careful handling
Expensive
Bulky vs. traditional phone
Still lacks dust resistance
Battery life is still horrible
Cameras are good but not great
The crease is annoying when using the S Pen
Not cheap
Hinge gap is still present and even the new tougher display protector is still soft and susceptible to damage
Under-display camera offers a more immersive multimedia experience than a punch hole
But is still far from perfect and the camera quality is no
No storage for the S Pen
Cameras aren't up to par with the Galaxy S21 Ultra
Foldable crease is still noticeable
Eye-watering price
Terrible under-screen selfie camera
Heavy and awkward as a phone
Still incredibly expensive for a phone
Cameras are good
But not stand-out
Under-display camera is distracting
S Pen sold separately and there's nowhere to store it
The pixelated OLED is distracting
And the selfies you get from this 4MP shooter are terrible
Samsung's menus can be confusing
And it's too aggressive in managing memory
The battery lasts a day—you'll be charging every night
Abstract: At ‘Unpacked' 2021, Samsung unveiled two new smartwatches, a pair of wireless earbuds and, most importantly, the Galaxy Z Flip 3 and the Galaxy Z Fold 3, its latest duo of foldable smartphones.I went hands-on with both foldable devices and my overall ini...
Pipe dreams of a future rollable phone aside, that doesn't mean that the Fold 3 doesn't do exactly what Samsung intended very well. The question is do you want what it does?If you're just looking for a phone, I'm not sure the Fold 3 is for you, it is a go...
Still a really cool idea, Excellent performance, Fantastic entertainment device, Includes an underscreen camera (!), Rear cameras can be used as a selfie camera, Supports 5G, Wireless charging, Water resistant
Very, very thick, Underscreen camera isn't great, Rear camera shots need to be sharper, No 8K video capture, SPen support feels like it's been thrown in as opposed to designed to be truly used with the Fold 3, Not a major leap on last year's Fold 2
The world of foldables hasn't really set our eyelids on fire like we'd hoped, but they are coming along.Three generations of foldable in, Samsung's chunky chap is more interesting than ever, and feels like a worthy option for someone who lives a life arou...

IPX8 - what we expect of a premium device, The Foldable has grown-up, 120Hz both displays, S Pen - vale Note, Great speakers, Good, not a great camera, USB-C 3.2 and video out
No charger or buds in box, Barely one day battery life, Slow charging, 4MP under-display selfie is barely adequate, No 3.5mm or MicroSD

If the aspect ratios were a bit less weird, or apps were better able to accommodate them, and the price was a bit closer $2000, I would call it a must-have. It's certainly something to be strongly considered for Note users looking to upgrade. It's an amaz...

Improved design and durability, Productivity powerhouse, Beautiful displays, Consistent cameras
Some apps require manual optimisation, Terrible under-display camera, Cumbersome
There are a host of refinements that the Galaxy Z Fold 3 lords over its predecessor; with a cleaner, hardier design that somehow integrates water resistance, an expanded feature set (including S Pen support) and a lower starting price.While processing, ga...
