A s10e Pro foldable edition

Posted: Jan 04, 2023, 10:57 AM

Phone owned for less than a year

I do like its screen and the hinge
Got a small dead pixel but its minor one, everything else is fine.
Battery life had could been improved, but having more battery is rather good than having the mimimum
i do also think the 120hz feature is overpowered, maybe 90hz were betteryvfor the z flip since it has small battery too. We should atleast thank samsung for adding them
Stereo speakers work fine. No headphone jack and expandable storage yet doing fine. Also no dex and HDMI connection unlike the S10e.
Yet the s10e and the z flip 3 share the same charging - 15w wired and 10w wirelessly.
Android support is good - delivered with android 11, upgradable to android 13, and I expect on the future to get android 15 and software updates until august 2026.
5G is also a great feature yet some people dont have access towards it.
Also cover screen is also an improvement, I like it
Gaming will sometimes get you around black bars but its common for those types of phones, so i dont mind it. Also Snapdragon 888 is a good proccesor for gaming anyways, its shared also with the s21 series and the fold.
Coming from a note 10 lite user, I think that upgrade was a sacrifice, yet its worth it. I dont regret upgrading to it so far.

Go buy a Samsung flip 3 best phone in 2021. Sorry Apple fans this phone is much more practical. Love my flip 3 it just fits every where I put it in car in back pack it just slids in place. But get a otterbox case before you drop it on ground ouch.

Phone has been great. What an awesome piece of technology. I do hope that the screen fold doesn't become more visible in the future. Just wish Battery life is longer but after the AI has learned my habits it seems to be able to recommend ways to optimize the battery life. Pretty useful
