This time, the cameras are placed side by side along the longer edge of the cell phone, and the frame that surrounds them both has disappeared. Instead, each slide has its own protective ring. Gorilla Glass Victus was given space here. Another design modification concerns the edges of the phone, which are now a little “sharper” and at least they will come to me a little more suitable for a man’s hand than the original rounded Flip, which seems to be made for women’s handbags. Even the surfaces are flatter and thanks to the glass quite smooth and also slippery. On the right side there are volume buttons and a really good fingerprint sensor. Paradoxically, nothing extraordinary has happened on the front side, which should be the most interesting thing about a flexible phone.

The flexible panel still needs slightly higher edges, which makes making full-screen gestures a little uncomfortable. Unfortunately, the fact that the phone has a slight slit when it clicks in the middle also makes it an effective collector of lumps and debris. So look forward to constant wiping. If something more harmful should approach the screen, Samsung promises on the Galaxy Z Flip3 greater display durability. This will be shown especially by longer tests, I didn’t want to dig into my new mobile phone completely.

From the point of view of the overall construction, the phone is processed with absolute precision and can be felt perfect snap into the end positions of the hinge, but the mobile phone holds up nicely at any angle (greetings from Franta from Most!). What threw me a lot, and I’m not entirely sure if the original Flip had it that way, was location of the wireless charging module. It is under the cover in the lower half of the mobile phone, which means, among other things, that it has a problem receiving energy in some stand chargers or holders. In the case of the Xiaomi Mi 20W Wireless Car Charger, it is basically without a chance with regard to a secure grip.

A duo of great displays

While the outer panel attracts attention only with its size and full color, the main display hides the best in itself. And no, it’s not a camera with an invisible lens. A pleasant novelty of the flexible screen in the third Flip is the adaptive frequency, which is needed as needed rises to 120 Hz. Fans of smooth movement on the display (ie perhaps everyone who had the opportunity to taste such a frequency) will certainly appreciate this. The center groove strikes me as as visible and emotionally deep as previous Samsung flexors. If the display is lit, you will not be able to see the grooves from most angles.

Although it is a flexible phone, where logically the biggest star should be the main flexible display, in this case it is more like the one on the back of the device. He experienced an enlargement as well entrusting several practical tasks. In the system, several cards can be thrown on it, led by the clock, music control, starting the countdown, fitness information, calendar events or the weather. Of course, notifications have not disappeared, but it is now possible to see them as well with multi-line previews.

When this smaller display is not enough for something, it will prompt you to open the mobile phone and automatically launch the appropriate application. You can change the ringtone or volume mode and also launch the Samsung Pay payment gateway via drag and drop gestures. Unfortunately, all the mentioned cards are (so far?) Part of it closed offers, where you can’t just add something else. The design of the clock can be changed and there is even a harmonization of the visual with the Galaxy watch.
