SAMSUNG Galaxy Z Flip 3 5G Cell Phone
What are the biggest differences between the galaxy z flip 3 5g the z flip 5g and the z flip that's what we're here to tell you about [Music] first up there are really two generations of z-flip devices but there are three different versions the original z-flip and the z-flip 5g are nearly identical except for a couple of things namely the 5g radio price and processors the z-flip and the z-flip 5g have the same dimensions wait for screen sizes both inside and out storage ram and the list goes on so I'm going to kind of lump them together for most of this video the biggest difference between the new z-flip 3 and the other models is the price for the first time you can get a Samsung foldable
phone for around a thousand dollars at launch that's a really big deal the original z flip cost one thousand three hundred and eighty dollars at launch the z flip 5g cost about 14. 50 at its launch how is that pricing possible some of it's probably due to advances in manufacturing and maybe a little to do with storage the og flips came in one storage configuration and that was 256 gigs the 1 000 flip 3 comes with half that storage you can bump that up to 256 for another 50 bucks then there's the cover screen the og flips had a teeny tiny 1. 1 inch screen that was better than nothing but far from great samsung says that the cover screen on the flip 3 is four times larger the cover screen on the three can be used to frame your selfie photos and videos you could technically do that with the original z-flips but it was really hard to see your shot because of that teeny tiny tiny screen the new cover screen also makes it easier to see notifications and reply using your voice let's talk about durability the z flip 3 has water resistance samsung never gave an ip rating to any of its foldable phones before the new z3 lines the z flip 3 is ipx8 rated that means it withstand being submerged in up to 1. 5 meters of water for about 30 minutes none of the z phones in any generation, including the new ones are dust proof
the back of the three is
covered in gorilla glass Victis corning makers of gorilla glass says that Invictus is two times more scratch resistant than gorilla glass 6. That gorilla glass 6 is on the original flips victims can also handle drops of up to 2 meters
glass 6 can handle a max height of 1. 6 meters and you can bet we'll be drop
testing the flip 3 in a future video the hinge on the z3 also got tougher
Samsung says it built the flip 3 with its armor aluminum, which the company says
is its strongest aluminum ever used on a galaxy phone Samsung also claims that
the main screen panel on the flip 3 and the fold 3 is 80 percent more durable
than the z fold 2. Even with all those durability upgrades on the flip 3 it
still weighs the same as the original flips at 183 grams the z-flip 3 is also a
tiny bit smaller in all dimensions compared to the originals Samsung also
popped in another speaker in the flip 3 so you get stereo sound the originals
had one speaker for the mono sound the flip 3 gets a 120-hertz refresh rate on its
main screen the other two were stuck at 60. That means you'll get smoother scrolling and animations on the new 3. what else is there to know how about a
new system on a chip or soc the z-flip 3 uses qualcomm snapdragon 888 soc this
is the first snapdragon to combine the processor with a 5g modem the original
flip had the qualcomm snapdragon 855 plus but no 5g modem the flip 5g brought
in the qualcomm snapdragon 865 plus 5g mobile platform that means there was a
processor with a discrete 5g modem alongside it what does that mean there's a
good chance that the z-flip 3 will more power efficient than the previous 5g
model that's due to the integrated 5g modem on the snapdragon 888 we'll have to
see how it performs in the battery tests that we'll have soon okay so I think
those were all the major differences between the z-flip 3 and the original line
of flips check out our impressions of the z-flip 3 here I'll be digging through
the spec sheets to see what I missed let me know in the comments if the changes
to the flip 3 make you want to get one I'm iaz zaktar and I'll see you online
