Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Mirror Black SM-F700F review
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is a tantalising, desirable look at one possible future of the smartphone. A big phone that folds into a compact square is surprisingly pleasing to use, much easier to pocket and has the side benefit of adding a bit of distance between you and your phone.- Pros: a screen that folds in half, big screen made pocketable, stands on its own, good camera, day+ battery life, exciting and different, One UI 2, good gestures, wireless charging and powersharing, nano sim and esim
- Cons: durability unknowns, no dust or water resistance, high cost, no headphone socket, no telephoto camera, no expandable storage
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Mirror Purple SM-F700F review
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is the first folding phone to really work, but it's still a costly and potentially fragile fashion object rather than a mainstream hit.- Solid all-around performance
- L-shaped mode is good for taking photos.
- The utility of the folding screen doesn't justify the high price.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Review
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is the first folding phone to really work, but it's still a costly and potentially fragile fashion object rather than a mainstream hit. The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip ($1,380) is the first folding-screen smartphone that incontrovertibly works. It's still a bit clunky, a big square that says "niche luxury item" rather than "everyone's next smartphone." But that's OK. After all, expensive, uniquely designed clothing exists, and people pay for and enjoy it. Here at PCMag, we review flashy desktop PCs where you're definitely paying extra for the clear case and blue coolant fluid, but they rate highly. So given that the Galaxy Z Flip works, and it does, I'm happy to give it a salute while at the same time not recommending it for most people. We've now seen three generations of folding phones, and they're improving fast. The Galaxy Fold had some serious initial build issues. The Motorola Razr doesn't actually work very well as a smartphone. Yes, the Z Flip has a scratchable screen and costs $1,380, but at least it does everything you want it to. So if you love the design and can foot the bill, take it to Fashion Week. Every...- Solid all-around performance

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Mirror Purple SM-F700F review
It’s finally here, a folding phone that’s convinced us foldables are past the proof of concept phase. The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip’s durability is still up for debate, but on first impression, it’s a cracking looking smartphone with a competent spec sheet.- Premium styling
- Solid flip mechanism
- Expensive
- Not class-leading camera spec
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Mirror Purple SM-F700F review
The new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is the flip-phone-style foldable smartphone with a 6.7-inch display that collapses in half. Its novelty will turn heads, but so will its price. We're still testing it, but we can already say we like its durable thin glass better than the plastic Galaxy Fold screen, and...- Neat folding concept
- Cool splitscreen UI
- Premium feel
- Quite expensive
- Cover Display is tiny

Foldable screen is the new buzzword in consumer tech, but OEMs are still figuring out what form factor is most suited for it.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Mirror Purple SM-F700F review
Samsung has a really good alternative to the Motorola Razr in its range with the Galaxy Z Flip. On paper, the Galaxy Z Flip can already offer much more than Motorola's icon. But this is exactly where the difference lies: if you want to get more for your money and you want a foldable smartphone, then...
