SamsungGalaxy Z Fold4 5G Mobile Phone Sim Free Android Folding Smartphone 256GB, Phantom Black, 3 Year Manufacturer Warranty, UK Version

I was on the fence with this one. Folding phone, what for? Will it be practical as my daily driver? Why not use a tablet and a normal candy bar phone? Having contemplated the pros and cons for a while, I decided it wasn't for me, that is, until I saw it in all its glory in the Samsung store. I compared the BBC website between my iPhone 13 Pro max and Fold 4 in the unfolded state. The screen estate on the Fold 4 was beautiful. I was honestly blown away. This was a technological marvel, so well designed.Here are my opinions after using it for a month. The form factor is spot on. Unfolded, the screen size makes it my go to device which replaces the tablet and Kindle. Browsing PDF documents, Excel, Outlook seems native to it, the screen estate is perfect. Browsing the internet, online shopping, google maps are all a different experience, similar to what you'd find on a high end tablet. A normal candybar phone will not give you this experience. Gaming is on a completely different level. I play Stardew Valley, and without any doubt, this is the best platform to play on (and I have it on PC and Switch). There is a crease visible in certain lighting angles but disappears if viewed directly straight on. Weight distribution is spot on with no tiredness on the wrists after prolonged use.One of the best features is the customisable task bar at the bottom that enables the switching of apps with ease. There's the multitasking feature where you can drag multiple apps that fit neatly across horizontally, vertically or floating and can be added as a shortcut. With the new chip, it is blazingly fast. The speakers are near identical to that of the iPhone 13 pro max. It plays a nice deep rich sound that can be used as a standalone player. Camera is great. The amount of times you take a photo, then opening the phone to review the shot, is simply breathtaking.The battery life is surprisingly good. I can get a full day with a mixture of folded/unfolded, browsing, YouTube, gaming. Battery size is the same as its predecessor, but the new chip makes it more energy efficient.When folded, the cover screen is narrower than your usual phones which makes it trickier to text. To address this, I installed Swiftkey which enables swipe texting as well as predicted correction. I have set up the cover screen for essential apps, and found it to be very useable. With the phone being narrower, the bonus is using it one handed is so much easier with the thumb sitting naturally on the power button making it easy to turn on/off. I purchased the Spigen tempered glass screen protector for the front for added protection. This fitted perfectly as Samsung saw sense to keep the screen flat unlike the the curved side screens on the S22 ultra, etc.Out and about, you do notice its bulk. Twice as thick and slightly heavier than candybar phones, I could definitely feel its weight in my front jeans pocket (with an additional pouch for protection as well as the Samsung case).Is it for you? For most, price will be deciding factor. It is ridiculously expensive. Samsung, please review your prices. If however, you get good deals from Samsung I'd say it is definitely worth it. Keep it in a pouch for added protection - you don't want to drop this! Above all, it is fun. I have never enjoyed using a smart phone in a long time until now. The last time was probably the introduction of the original iPhone or the Galaxy S2.

This device is amazingly good, it’s compact yet large screen there too. It is reasonably good battery life, charging time not epic, but acceptable, even with high wattage charger. Camera amazing similar to my S21 FE, it’s very fast and a memorable experience as in the future here today! Ok, I’ll be mindful it has a folding screen and treat with extreme care. Value for money unparalleled ever on anything I’ve ever purchased, cheers Amazon!

I've had this device for 3 weeks now and got more attached the it than expected!The delivery process was effortless.When thinking about the device 3 words come to mind:Versatility, seamless and luxe!Versatility:You can do everything on it and then some! From the most simplest tasks to creating an extensive PowerPoint presentation and working through excel spreadsheets!You can connect a mouse and use Flex Mode for a laptop like feel!External hard drives are also recognised!And when you're done with work, switch to Netflix and chill!Seamless:The transition from main display to cover display is effortless and with the continuity setting, apps continue regardless of which display you switch too.I love that I have 2-3 apps running simultaneously on main display!I was also pleased with the extra brightness while in brought daylight. You will notice battery life going down much quicker though, extra brightness drains it. But that was somewhat expected.Luxe:This phone feels incredible! The build quality is incredible.It's been only two weeks, but I can see why Samsung is making these claims. It feel amazing.The sound quality is incredible too and I have had very good battery life so far. Longest I was able to go was a whole day. Starting the day at 51% and I had 3% left at the end of day. Moderate use.If I play games or stream on the main display, I can see the battery life going down quicker.Optimisation options exists and you can customise it to your needs.Initially I wanted to go for the Z Flip 4, but I am glad I picked the Z Fold 4!

Battery performance so far is perfect , selfe camera isnt great, the screen, responsiveness of the foldable is excellent, generally speaking it worth to go for it with this price on black friday, as compared to S23 ultra , i see it much better in term of battery and screen.

This is probably the best phone I have used although a bit pricey. As my eyesight is not as good as it used to be so the larger screen when you want it is a real bonus. It is well made, great camera, reasonable battery life and I was amazed when I plugged it into my desktop screen via the USB C as it turns it into a computer.I would definitely recommend.

The media could not be loaded.  Ilove it very nice and amazing phone and best price only on Amazon many thanks for all Amazon customer support team in uk best place for shopping on Amazon ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Where do I start...a M$ fan that took a lot of convincing to move to Andoid. Samsung delivered from day one S18 through to my latest Fold Z 4. Never again. Device is wonderful when it works. Intermittent reboots and a dodgy Bluetooth and WiFi....I expect and demand better. Samsung should be ashamed of this premium product...£1700 wasted...ill give them a few more weeks to fix their issues then its gong back.....disappointing does not describe it!!

Pretty happy with this phone. I came from a Oneplus, which I've used for my last 3 phones. The foldable screen tempted me back to Samsung. Great for using the phone as a tablet - watching videos etc. You can barely see the fold in the screen. Takes some getting used to the huge keyboard. Charging OK but not amazingly fast. Smooth UI.
