Design and Display

Galaxy Z Flip 3 is just identical to predecessor - possessing a clamshell design and a dual rear camera setup. It looks a lot different than the Galaxy Fold3. It's clearly designed to be a full phone with a 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED display that folds and shrinks into a much smaller square when it's closed – nicely fitting into the pocket. The display offers 1080 x 2640 pixels resolution at a wide 20:9 aspect ratio. Having a 120Hz refresh rate provides a next-level gaming experience.

The Galaxy Z Flip3 also has a 1.9-inch secondary Super AMOLED positioned on the back of its cover so you can see your notification at a glance.

Weighing in at 183 grams, the foldable phone is made of plastic and aluminum. It gets shelter of Gorilla Glass Victus and provides strong water resistance (1.5m for 30 minutes).

Software

As we know, Android is the platform of Samsung mobiles. Hence, the brand used to install the latest version of Google OS, Android 11. OneUI 3.5 is a new and redesigned interface on top of Android. New software is suitable to foldable design, for example, the keyboard on the screen appears in two separate sections.

You can stand the Samsung Z Flip3 with the phone half-open, which Samsung is calling Flex Mode. It looks like this could be particularly useful for video chats via Google Duo, as you'll be able to call hands-free.

Optics

On the back panel, Galaxy Z Flip 3 embeds a dual-camera setup for photography experience. There is a 12MP primary sensor with f/1.8 aperture, 27mm (wide), 1.4µm pixels, Dual Pixel, and PDAF. Secondary is a 12MP ultra-wide sensor with f/2.2 aperture. The mainstream lens is capable of 8x zoom, HDR+, and 4K video recording, and also supports OIS. The centered punch-hole on the front panel houses a 10MP sensor for selfies and live 4k calling experience. The selfie lens has f/2.4 aperture, 26mm (wide), 1.22µm pixels, and PDAF.

Chipset

The Z Flip3 administration is handed over to Snapdragon 888 5nm processor; however, the predecessor was running SD855+. A 20% hike in performance is a result of hardware and software upgrade. The flip phone obtained 455,000 scores in AnTuTu benchmark, which shows how it sits between mid and high end devices – or you can say Z Flip3 some kind of upper mid-range. RAM is 8GB for both storage variants, 128GB and 256GB. MicroSD card slot is absent, and hence there is zero chance of memory expansion.

Battery life is okay, not overwhelming. Samsung Z Flip3 packs a 3300 mAh powerhouse. And it awakes up for a day on moderate use. Fast Charge technology is advancing here, 25W adapter this time (instead of 15W with previous Z Flip). Wireless Charge counts on 11W. About an hour, you can revive battery from 0 to 100 percent.

Verdict

Galaxy Z Flip3 is a great choice in a clamshell design. The price is a bit high but there against is a water-resistant foldable smartphone. You are reaching flagship level performance and 120Hz display made the gaming experience even better. If you cannot overcome Z flip3 drawbacks, there are alternative foldable phones like Galaxy Z Fold3 and Motorola Razr.
