    Top reviews from the United States

    Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2024
    Color: Phantom BlackSize: 512GBPattern Name: Phone OnlyVerified Purchase
    So I've been using Motorola phones the past five or so years, buying a new one every 18 months or so to get an extra 2gb of ram to boost the speed of the android operating system. These phones were mid tier at best phones bought for 200-300 dollars each time. They always got the job done but I was never impressed by the speed of the phone, often times running Facebook by itself would run slow let alone multiple apps would stall the phones a ton.

    So over 4-5 years I bought 4 phones for about $1,2000 total, figuring each time I was owning a phone almost as fast as a Samsung for 1/5 the price. I run an Etsy and Ebay business now and my phone is my life. On my Motorola everything was average, the camera, the processor, the ram, the battery, etc.

    So I had been researching these new Samsung phones, especially the S23+ Ultra and this Z Fold 5, and feel in love with everything I saw, including the reviews. After owning mid tier phones for half a decade I guess I simply forgot there's a reason why if you love Android over IOS you go with Samsung.

    Pricey, sure it is. But my God, the display is a thing of beauty to start. The speed is also so incredible I forgot what it was like to multi task on a phone in Nana seconds with absolutely no lag. Samsung truly knows how to build a superior product and it's worth every penny!!

    12 gb of ram make this thing run multiple applications at once without any problem. In settings there's even an extra mouse that takes 8gb of your internal memory and turns it into more ram, which is icing in the cake.

    The phone itself is extremely solid and hard to break or Crack. I bought the case with the s pen built into it and love the features and case. Folding it out to watch you tube videos feels like in using a tablet whenever I want, as well as running multiple apps side by side flawlessly.

    The camera is super impressive with the 50mp option that really helps me take great photos of my vintage products I sell. Couldn't be happier.

    The only, single complaint, if I dare call it that, would be the battery life is very similar to the moto phones I owned before. Even if I only use the front screen it doesn't last as long as I expected. Luckily it comes with a special charger that literally takes it from 20% to 100% in line 40 minutes, so I'm satisfied as a whole with the battery, not enough of a problem to not give it 5 stars.

    Thanks Samsung, I now remember what is like to have lightning fast operating system, to get every actual notification correctly, a screen to watch movies and videos that's amazing, a Samsung one OS that makes the fold out screen work flawlessly with multiple apps, and settings for every tiny thing possible.

    I spent $1,500 instead of $300 on a moto, but I'm sure this phone will last me 3-5 years easily. Definitely recommend this product.

    I've had a iphone for two years. Always wanted a tablet experience. I've tried the iPad mini bug having to carry two devices was inconvenient for me. Finally caved and bought the fold 5. And amazing. Love having a tablet and a phone all in one. No issues so far, only a slight scratch on the screen protector. I don't see it anymore but it did do a discoloration on the scratch. Not a big deal.

    The new hinge design was the selling point this time around, plus the black Friday deal was a bonus. I had the z fold 4 but sat on it and it became useless after that. The front still works but it got really hot most likely to damaged areas. Anyway with the new hinge design I can confidently not have to sit on it again by accident and ruin it. It came in a sealed box and looks brand new. It is unlocked and I just put my Sim card in and it worked like magic. Some reason when it's folded, the front doesn't look as skinny as the 4 did. Good product in my opinion.

    It really does do a whole lot and might be described as a "phablet". It really is a whole lot like having a computer in your hand given the computing power and larger screen.

    The thing is that really is a bit of a compromise. To make the dimensions work out OK they made the front screen a bit narrower than I like and the opened device doesn't fit that well in my hand (and I have fairly big hands).

    What works fairly well for me with the main screen opened is that I put on a case which has a s-pen holder which goes on the back of where the screen folds. I'm right-handed so I have my left thumb on the left edge of the phone and my 3rd and 4th fingers holding onto the spine that holds the s-pen. That makes for a fairly secure hold.

    So the case makes the phone more workable in one way. But the case makes it a bit more difficult to get the fingerprint reader to function well. Without the case the fingerprint reader works very well indeed in my opinion.

    Despite the utility of having the S-pen spine on the case I'd probably not use a case at all if it weren't for the fact that the caseless phone is sufficiently slippery that it feels like it will fall out of my shirt pocket if I lean forward more than just a little bit.

    Facial recognition is not great but not that bad either.

    The features it brings are extensive and I'm still exploring the multiple screen functionalities.

    My granddaughter enjoys drawing in Samsung Notes and that has more value to me than you might think. A much better experience than what I got with my previous Samsung S22 Ultra.

    Yes, I have quibbles but they are not that big a deal and I think that in the Fold 5 we might be looking at the future of portable phones.

    One other thing? I hope Samsung will figure out how to store the S-pen in the phone as was the case with the S22 Ultra. I'm not really sure that will prove to be practical given that it might result in excessive thickness of the phone - and mean less room for the electronics and battery.

    Lifetime iphone user switched to android for the first time. After having this brand new phone for 4 months, I simply opened it up to use the folding screen and the screen tore down the middle and is not usable. Samsung said this is not covered under warranty because I had no screen protector. $600+ to fix. Stay away. Complete ridiculousness.
