Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 5G (256GB, Graphite) Australian Stock - Excellent review

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 is a big improvement on the Z Flip 4 with a larger cover display, improved performance and a gapless fold, but with increased competition in 2023, it’s not quite as tempting an option as it once was.
Pros:
  • Premium look with no gap when folded, Powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy chipset, Much more useful 3.4-inch cover display, You want a foldable that doesn’t compromise on power: The custom Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy is incredibly powerful, delivering some of the best benchmarks we’ve seen from...
Cons:
  • Same 12MP cameras as Z Flip 4, Middling battery life, even for a foldable, Cover display software is surprisingly limited, You want a foldable with great cameras: The dual 12MP lenses are fine in well-lit conditions, but they don’t quite hold up in low-light scenarios – even compared to the best...

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 review

I will forever have a soft spot for the Galaxy Flip. It’s the device that made me believe that foldables could, indeed, be a viable path forward for the smartphone industry. Respect to the Fold for the tough path it blazed to become the first commercially viable entry, but the Flip flipped the...

Samsung’s New Folding Phones No Longer Shine Quite as Bright

Samsung’s new folding phones are better than before, but now that competition among foldables has heated up, these Galaxies have less star power.
Pros:
  • Refined folding phones. Improved cameras and displays. External display on the Flip5 is more useful. Long software-update policy.
Cons:
  • Expensive. Flip5’s external screen still has some restrictions, and battery life isn’t great. Fold5’s front screen is too narrow.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 review

Can a colossal new cover screen make what was an already fab foldable even better?
Pros:
  • Sublime design and capable cover screen, Flagship-tier performance, Streamlined software makes good use of flip form factor
Cons:
  • Cameras haven’t stepped up in a meaningful way, Battery life is just fine, and charging speeds could be better, No 128GB option means higher price barrier

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 review

With the Galaxy Z Flip 5, Samsung has debuted a new larger cover display which makes it easier to handle notifications, check the weather, control media and more, without opening the phone.
Pros:
  • Huge Cover Screen is a welcome addition, Still one of the few foldables rated at IPX8 for water resistance, Good battery life, Great software support from Samsung, Good camera, but a step down from other flagships, New hinge allows it to fold flat, no gap, Base storage doubled to 256GB
Cons:
  • Not all apps run on the Flex Window, The crease is still fairly large, Still no telephoto camera

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 review

Samsung’s flip phone doesn’t break the mould for its fifth generation, still squeezing a big-screen smartphone into a much more compact folded form. But a collection of small, meaningful changes remove more of the compromises of the still-developing tech, making it feel like a more mature product.
Pros:
  • Pros: a great large screen that folds in half, big cover screen, folds fully shut, IPX8 water-resistant, decent camera, good software with five years of updates, nano sim and esim, fun.
Cons:
  • Cons: less durable than a regular phone, no telephoto camera, battery life a day but short of best, expensive.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 review

The Galaxy Z Flip5 and Z Fold5 run on Samsung's One UI 5.1.1 skin on top of Android 13. Although we much prefer Google and Moto’s simple, lightweight, and close-to-stock Android user experience, One UI 5.1.1 delivers a comprehensive set of features that cater to a broader range of users.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 5G (256GB, Graphite) Australian Stock - Excellent review

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 is on one hand an iterative update - no real change to the main display, the cameras, or battery, a slight bump in the power on offer, while the design overall remains pretty much the same. But the exterior display changes the entire experience.
Pros:
  • Premium and improved design, Exterior display is excellent, Great performance, Brilliant battery life
Cons:
  • No optical zoom lens, Display durability could still be an issue, Charging could be faster

Beyond the Hinge: Everything New with the Galaxy Z Flip 5 Review!

Samsung made the right move towards usability with the new Galaxy Z Flip 5. In a clamshell-type smartphone, the ability to fully capitalize on the compact form factor is definitely key to success. I tested the Z Flip 5, and here's why I believe this generation is worth the investment.
Pros:
  • Truly useful cover display, Improved hinge mechanics, Balanced display image quality, Fluid software experience, Above-average camera quality
Cons:
  • Slightly larger crease in the display, Only average battery life, Charging time exceeds one hour, No charger included in the box
