[GALAXY FLIP 5 / GALAXY FOLD 5 HANDS-ON]
For nearly a year, I’ve dual-wielded Samsung’s Galaxy Fold 4 and Flip 4 as a daily-driver one-two punch for workday productivity and weekend portable playtime. Same as the Fold 3 and Flip 3 before that; and the second and first generations before.
But this year, for the first time in American foldable history, Samsung faces competition in both categories. On the clamshell front, Motorola’s Razr+ is a real affront thanks to its larger … front. At the same time, the Galaxy Fold’s large-format dominance is threatened by the Google Pixel Fold and the upcoming OnePlus foldable.
Well Samsung invited me to an early hands-on at its pop-up experience center in Herald Square to see the heat it’s bringing to compete: the meaningfully different Galaxy Flip 5 … and the exceedingly familiar Galaxy Fold 5.

Mr. Mobile is the go to guy when it comes to folding and flipping gadgets 😅😅😅
Word, his insights are more genuine and relevant than what most end up putting out
Totally
He should rename himself mrfold now
He's the go to guy for any mobile phone period
I scrolled past three other flip5 reviews and went straight to Michael's
As usual, your coverage of foldables is amongst the best in the business .
agreed
Agreed x3
I think Shane Craig is much better. His channel is solely revolved around foldables and covers software updates and changes and tips/tricks as well.
@terrancecloverfield6791 he doesn't really cover non US foldables though.
We're on the 5th generation for the flip and fold already! Time goes by far too quickly.
Right?? It feels like it was only a year ago when my eyes were bugging out of my head at the concept of a folding screen
@MrMobile, I'm so glad I watched this BEFORE preordering the Fold 5! You just saved me making a HUGE mistake. After 9 months of owning a Fold 4, Samsung was unable to repair it (after 3 times I asked for my money back), and after 3 weeks, low and behold they sent me $1,799.99. I'm shocked they did, but also very happy to be done with them.
Let's hope the next foldable contender gives us something we deserve.
Sending this from a Moto Razr Plus 2023.
What exactly went wrong with your Fold 4
@@22b_gc8 The 2 issues I had were: the inner screen protector was peeling off, and the outer screen was scratched to hell. Keep in mind that I bought Samsung care from day 1. I called Care (assuming I'd have to pay a deductible due to scratching the front screen), but they told me that due to the inner screen issue, they'd repair the whole thing for free.
Shipped it to them the first time. They sent it back the same day they received it "repaired". Nope. They replaced the screen protector, but damaged the inner screen by either dropping a screwdriver on it, or something with a tip as there was a dimple on it that wasn't there before me sending it in. They also replaced the entire phone housing, and camera lenses, but did not fix the outer screen.
The 2nd time I shipped it, they again sent it back the same day they received it, but this time they only replaced some internal antenna. They did not fix either the outer or inner screens.
The 3rd time I called several times to ask if it would actually get fixed this time, or if they could just send me a new phone. A week after they received it, they told me it was now out of warranty due to the scratches on the screen.
I tweeted out to Samsung Mobile USA, and LTT, and a day later, called in, spoke to a manager, and all of a sudden I was offered a full refund. It was promised within 3-5 business days, but actually took 3 weeks, but they did indeed send me my money via Citi Bank.
I can't wait for Samsung to have a proper competitor here in the States. Google lame 1st attempt is a joke, though at least it's an attempt. Maybe by the 3rd or 4th iteration, it might be worth buying. But until then, I'll stay on my Moto or iPhone, or maybe even a Note 13, eh hmh. I mean S23 Ultra. Samsung knows how to make phones, but not folding ones that hold up... Yet.
@@byersbw I can see how that must have been super frustrating and Samsung customer service leaves a lot to be desired, but it sounds like the only issue that the phone had originally was that the screen protector was peeling? Everything after that happened due to Samsung repair center screwing up. So it doesn't seem fair to say that "Samsung knows how to make phones, but not folding ones that hold up" based on that. For what it's worth, I've had my Fold 3 for almost 2 years and I also only had an issue with the inner screen protector peeling off. Fortunately, I have a Samsung repair center in my city where I can just bring in the phone and have the inner screen protector replaced within 1 hour. So it's not major issue for me to have it replaced 1-2 times a year. Besides that, the phone is working perfectly with no issues.
Love the foldable coverage! I've gotta agree about Samsung foldables having an issue with their screen protectors. I've owned the Flip 1, 3, and 4, and every single one has had cracks form in their protectors in less than a year. Currently on the Pixel Fold and hoping its screen holds up better.
Screen protectors? You could have just change it for free you know
@@diablo4624 I'm aware, but there's no Samsung repair centers near me so I'd have to ship it and be phone-less for a while. It's not great when that's the assumed experience of using a foldable (that potentially multiple times a year you will have to get it repaired).
@@jishhd Yeah, It sucks to be fair.
I myself bought off brand screen protector for my flip and it's definitely better than the factory one
@@diablo4624 Based off what he says about the 5's hinges, I'm hoping that puts less pressure on the installed protectors. But for the earlier models, Samsung really should've owned it and included an extra internal screen protector with every device. You're right you can buy 3rd party, but IMO you shouldn't have to buy anything extra.
Good lock is not available in many many countries. I do not understand this silly limitation
So I guess the count down for the Fold, Flip 6 begins
My Fold 2 shared near all the failure points you described, lifting screen protector, lost bumpers etc. Despite that, it has been my longest winded device. I imagine all the changes between the 2 and 5 would feel significant, but as a whole I don't think the full has evolved much beyond the 2.
I went from the Fold 2 to the Fold 4 and I love the wider front screen. Even if it's still minimal and Iike that the hinge wasn't as long. So less bulky. Besides that, the changes don't seem that crazy after almost a year with the Fold 4. If I were you, I'd keep rocking that Fold 2. I miss treated mine a lot but still survived. Only issue I had was peeling screen protector 😊
The fold two is so bad compared to the 4
@@davidaguero451 if ya say so
Will be upgrading from the Fold 4, but I'm disappointed by the lack of camera improvement with the 5. I agree that when you are paying so much for these devices, Samsung should really make them cutting edge in every way.
You’re gonna upgrade even though you’re disappointed in innovation and pricing? Then why are you doing it dodo?
@timothyxxxpaul When I posted that I was assuming through the Samsung Upgrade programme. Since then however I've received a message to say that is ending, so now I'm not so sure. They are giving a big discount but will think a bit more about it.
I would like them to go all out on the camera, but it doesn't mean it won't be better or that incremental changes in other ways won't be welcome.
@@SP-nv1sgcheck with your service provider. I have t-mobile and they allow you to upgrade whenever you want if you have insurance.
Got here to see the previews of these devices.... listened to "kill two elephants with one room" over and over. Mr. Mobile, your wordsmithing is top-notch and cracks me up!!!
Samsung really needed to step up this year, and it looks like they've fallen short of that. Hopefully the 1+ foldables are good enough to kick them back into gear next year.
Yeah this looks just like a "ooh we are getting comptetion, maybe we should copy there waterdrop.
Their 2024 foldables will probably already be in the final stages of design, so I doubt any new phones released now will have any impact except on price
If the consistency and similarities meant Samsung could price them cheaper than Motorola, then it would be fantastic. But right now, if had to dump my Surface Duo I would get a Motorola instead.
@@nathanvrvrt Copy? In that case, every company copied Samsung for making a foldable.. I don't get you guys. Y'all complain when they don't make any significant design changes and when they do, you call em out for "copying". >_>
@@DiceRoboTrade in deals make the flip far cheaper than motorola. Bestbuy gave me a free flip 4 and $100 when I traded in my s21 ultra in november. Now I'm trading my flip 4 for the flip 5 and only paying $99.06. No other company is offering anything remotely as good as samsung price wise.
Thank god for your channel man
Nobody provides the meticulous coverage you do for foldable/flippables
I hope the Razr/Flip comparison videos come out soon
After being a fan of yours for a few years, I finally bit the bullet and have bought the Fold 5 and is arriving tomorrow. To say I'm excited isn't enough. It's gonna be fun.
Christmas day for the 'into the fold' man 🙌🏽🙌🏽 so happy to see you have access to these devices and give us such a polished video about them today 👏🏽👏🏽
Those colors!!! The flip has always been a compelling phone for me and Ive been waiting for the design to improve so I can get one. The Flip 5 hits almost all of what I'd want, so I'm excited for the full reviews
Excellent preview sir! I'll be sitting out this year. Like you mentioned... not enough enhancements on the Z Fold5. Will say that I've been happy with the Z Fold4 performance and durability over the last year. No concerns of it lasting another year. Thanks again.
thanks for talking about the fail rates for the fold devices. my fold 3 started showing cracks along the crease almost 2 years into ownership...i bought it preordered at launch. the screen protector started to peel so i removed it, a couple of weeks later i noticed three 1cm cracks along the crease. i was fuming! i fought samsung tooth and nail and managed to get them to offer a 'courtesy one-time repair' of my screen. i just got it back a few days ago and it's basically a new screen,hinge and frame.
moral of the story folks if you take care of your fold and have no physical damage other than the manufacture defect that is the fold 3 screen, don't take no as an answer if you're out of warranty!
I've been looking forward to this particular initial review for a while.. it was your review of the Galaxy Fold 3 that prompted me to give foldables a try. And, for the most part, the benefits of using a foldable, along with the screen issues, were borne out. I DID end up replacing the inner screen. For free (always get Samsung's extra coverage). Since I am not a frequent picture-taker, the deficiencies of the camera impacted me less.
Given that l don't use the unit for business as you do, I expect to be better served by a flip phone. So I am l looking forward to a full review of the Flip 5. Your reviews are a bit more accessible. Your friend from the Unlockr is knowledgeable, and gives excellent detail in his reviews (I subscribe to him as well). But yours can be more understandable to the common schmuck! Fortunately, I work in the telecommunications industry.
Looking forward to your next review.
I want one. For me, it's the thickness basically being halved by both thinner pieces of phone, but also the hinge closing completely shut.
I think it finally looks banging!
Thanks for the update! Your channel is a great resource for keeping up with the foldable scene!
My Zflip3 is still going strong, but it's nice to know there's a more substantial upgrade this time around. Let's hope the improvements keep coming!
Samsung's flip cover screen is sleek, very sleek, but I prefer the quirky razr screen
It really seems as if the SoC is the only selling point of this gen for Samsung
Razr+ also supports Ready For while the Z Flip 5 doesn't support Dex. 😂😂😂
@@PSYCHOV3N0M wait the leaks said it was supposed to support dex
They scrapped that??
That's ridiculously stupid, razr it is.
@PSYCHOV3N0M well it's a software so maybe they can implement it later, hoping it comes to flip 4 coz I ain't planing to upgrade for just a screen
And the processor does not take much advantage with the one that the Razr + has. The two processors are very powerful and can handle everything.
Appreciate your perspective and coverage of foladables. Thanks for the hands-on coverage.
This is the closest one can get to daily driver review. Kudos Mr. Mobile!😊
Great coverage video as always, Mr. Mobile 👌 Since I watch you and your foldable reviews, I own one myself now 😁
Another fantastic video Michael and so much further indepth considering it was a hands on! Bravo again!
Hi Michael, I always like all your videos a lot! Very informative in a good and interesting way! When do give your full review of the Z Fold5? I'm curious, because I own one myself since end of july. Thanks!👍
Design wise. I actually like the flex window over the full panel that the Razr+ has.
FYI for anyone with screen protector issues I recommend the Whitestone which i picked up for 16 quid on amazon. Comes with a little jig thing for perfect alignment. Much better oleophobic coating and feels far less likely to peel. I swapped mine a couple of months ago and its a very worthwhile upgrade even if you don't have peeling.
Yes I just put it on my Pixel Fold very easy
Samsung specifically says not to put third party screen protectors in the inner screen unless you want your warranty voided.
@@chelseawhite7551 just keep the original one and replace it if something happens, problem solved.
@@chelseawhite7551facts. I'm keeping mine on my Z Fold 4. Hope they have fun having problems in the long run
@chelseawhite7551 pretty sure for the fold 4 removing the screen protector no longer voids the warranty so if anything ever happened just remove it before you send in if that was the case. It's a bit of PET plastic film the exact same as the one samsung uses so no chance it could cause any damage.
This is one of the best documentaries I’ve seen from an egyptian content creator.
This final clap was very satisfying 😅
*CLAK*
I use a fold 4 and RAZR+. Just switched from the zflip4. Love the super clean UI with RAZR+, surprised at the huge difference.
I hate Samsung UI interface, it seems very overloaded to me. I prefer Stock Android from Moto.
Have had every Fold and a few Flips. Haven't had any durability issues. Love these phones
Finally a real hands on and not just another concept leak vid
Enjoyed the video. You are the go to TH-cam tech guy when it comes to foldables.
Hurrah. Spotted the Surface Duo in the mix. 👏👏
Genuinely, your reviews are top notch! Subscribed and thank you for your effort!
Mr. Fold I mean Mr. Mobile your passion for foldables is awesome! Great video
Crispy 4K, 60 fps, and a very nice hands-on video. Thanks Michael! I also was hoping more from Samsung ...
Great video as always and, you know what Michael, you are absolutely right. My Flip 4 screen decided to give up for no reason one morning as well as peeling around the hinge so I'm back to the slab of S23 Ultra now... Looking forward to the review but... Nah... I won't be getting one especially the Fold 5 as there doesn't seem to be any difference???
The protector on my Flip 4 started coming off after just a few months. In theory I could have gotten a free new Samsung one, if only they were in stock and somewhere within 50 miles of me (near Baltimore) was authorized to put them on. I got such a run-around from the two authorized repair centers that I gave up and put a third party one on myself, and ironically it's lasted better than the original. That aside, lack of dust protection on the new ones makes them a no-go for me. Something has gotten into my 4's hinge and now it won't lay flat at all, it opens to maybe 170 degrees, which is really annoying. So probably back to slab phones for me for my next one, sadly, as I do like the flip form factor.
Interesting preview. Thank you. Equally though, when I compare this to your preview of the iphone 15, I note the difference in tone and approach with regard to the latter. That said, your videos are a pleasure to watch and I am looking forward to your review of the Fold 5.
Can't wait for the full review.
I love the fold 5 look and style, sure its not the biggest change.. But I've been wanting an foldable, so this is definitely something I'm interested in
I have the Fold4, great phone. If Fold 5 your first fold you will like it. Samsung has the best software on foldables
As you've covered in the video the screen protectors peeling is a serious issue that I really hope the new home design has fixed. On my Fold 3 I've had to send it back about once a year, since it peeled in almost exactly the same way twice. The bottom edge started lifting, which spread to the left and eventually lifted almost like a zipper up the crease. If the Pixel Fold 2 fixes the battery life and heat issues I'm definitely switching to that, but I don't want to jump ship now since my Blackberry Priv had those issues and eventually became unusable because of the extra wear on the battery for it.
That eternal crisp is criminal
The 2019 Samsung lineup had the prettiest phones imo, That Aurora glow colour was just Chef's kiss
Kind of crazy that the flip 5 has a 3.6 inch cover screen in 2023 and just a couple of years ago the iphone 4 had a 4 inch screen.
(Different aspect ratios, I know)
I waited on buyin the razr to see wut the flip 5 offered... Razr is my preferred choice but preorder deal on flip 5 is ultra tempting
The video I've been waiting for all year! 👐
Always thanks!! Mr. Mobile.
Just traded in my Flip 4 for the Flip 5 and I can’t wait!
Thanks! Very complete analysis
Mr. MOBILE, making hump day, humpable.
Good to see colours coming back in. Technology should colourful
Hey, just wanted to say that I came here first before clicking on anyone else's videos. You are my first to go to for new videos.
Best Cinematic reviews.
Hi, Mr. Mobile- love your reviews and content! I wanted to ask, in your mind between the galaxy flip 5 and razr plus, is there a clear winner? Which one are you recommending to folks out there?
Thank you for the morning surprise MrMobile!
Worth noting the software improvements like increased recents in the taskbar are *not* exclusive to the Fold 5. They're just OneUI 5.1.1 improvements which will be available on at least the Fold 4 if not the Fold 3 as well.
You only this channel for flip abd folding. 🎉🎉🎉
I just traded in my Z Fold 3 for the Pixel Fold a little less than a month ago. Had owned the Z Fold 3 since launch and had to have the screen protector replaced on four different occasions. Luckily, I live in the Bronx, so the Samsung Store in Manhattan was only a subway ride away; but it was still bothersome whenever I had to go because I would have to wait at the store no less than an hour and a half for the whole process. The very last time I got the protectors replaced was in late April, and the inner display one started lifting literally the next day, not even 24hrs after it had been installed.
Nice name 😂
@@Vizzy285 😂😂😂
Thanks for this. I bought the Flip 3 based on your earlier review, was convinced by your review of the Razr+, then wound up getting a good offer from my phone company to get the Flip 5. Fingers crossed, I decided to stay with Samsung for the next two years.
I went all in with the bundle last year: Flip 4, watch 5 LTE and pro buds. Had some trouble with the watch, but finally all is well in my personal Samsung Universe. I will probably get the Filp5 for the larger screen. With a trade-in, I'm spending $50.When I saw how the Motorola Razr permits use of all apps on its screen, I was THAT close to purchasing one. I was also concerned about whether the Razr would play nice with my watch. I use my watch for several health related things, so I hope using the Good Lock app, I will be able to access them without opening the phone all the time.
Really tempted to take a leap to the other side after been on iPhone for a long time. Thank you Mike for your honest review. I guess I’ll keep waiting for a better phone.
This was great, thank you!
Love your content!! I just wanted to know if you will do a review on tab S9 that was also released with the phones?
I think that's the first time I heard the word "styla". Bravo
Pretty cool tech, may get the fold 6
Flip Ultra. S23 ultra that flips 😮 man can't wait 😄. Great review
Yes great review love it brother I'm with you got the new Pixel Fold for 900.00 the cameras take beautiful pictures better than my Z Fold 3. Love the different software that only on the Pixel plus the outer screen is great to use without having to open.
Awesome coverage as always!
Thanks for another great video Michael! I have to say that this video just continues to reinforce my position that these phones aren't for me. If one were given to me or I could buy one for half the price, it would be a different story, but I cannot justify dropping this amount of money on them. For me, the biggest problem is the durability. Yes, I hear you that it's far better then some would have you believe, but given just the stories you tell, I don't think I'd want these phones without a 3-4 year, full inner screen warranty. More than that though, the poor battery life at shipping implies that I'll be REALLY suffering after 2 years and given that the cameras are basically 2 years old and weren't top of the market when they were new, I just get even more worried about buyer's remorse.
Bottom line for me, I think these phones are best for people who are more flush with cash than I am, and feel the need to update phones every 1-2 years.
Thanks again for a great video, and I look forward to the next one!
P.S.
Speaking of expensive devices I can't justify buying, you need to stop wearing the Marq Captain... I am seriously jealous of how good that thing looks and every time I see it, those feelings come right back to the surface!
It's much funnier to watch this first look when you already have Samsung galaxy fold. And thank you, you are best reviewer I've ever watched.
Another great review. I look forward to hearing your take on the most recent smartphone offerings.
This is the best review yet!
I have all the foldable and flips. My current dailys are OnePlus Open and Razr+
I have flip4 since december and i've peeled the screen protector months ago and honestly feel like should've done it sooner. No issues and the screen is so much better off now. I'm generally an extra-accurate person, but still believe absolute need for the protector is exaggerated. Then again, i do treat like some piece of luxury :)
Thank you for the good review. I'm sticking with my beloved bespoke flip4 for now. I hope flip 6 will have app launching on coverscreen properly natively supported, silly it still isn't with 5.
I'm glad they're getting better hinges. But I just traded my Fold4 for an S23 Ultra. I had the Fold4 since launch and I've loved it. Still think foldables are the future, but the hinge's durability is an issue. I had issues with the glue melting and causing the phone no longer to open fully. Samsung refused to cover it under warranty calling it "cosmetic" so I had to pay to go through Care+. Then my replacement had issues which got replaced and my third unit started getting a weird squeaky hinge issue after just 2 weeks of usage. So I just can't justify staying with a device that has durability issues like this when Samsung won't stand by their own $1800 product. I'll miss it a lot, but the big display and built in S-pen on the S23 Ultra should help ease that pain. Plus I get a better battery and camera system.
I'll be back to the Fold when Samsung's warranty service gets better, the phone finally has dust resistance, the hinge is proven to be more durable, and the outer display is a tad bit wider.
I had the flip 4 and I also traded it in for a S23 Ultra. The screen protector was starting to peel and I wanted to send it in before it got worse lol
Same here. My fold four hinge glue leaked from the hinge causing failure. I immediately got the s23 ultra as well.
Sammy is saving the goodies for the Fold and Flip 6. They played it safe this year.
THANK YOU! I love my Fold4, but don't know why my screen protector is coming off AGAIN this year. Not as much, but still...
Been loving my Razr+ thanks to your review. Looking to get a Fold 4 or 5 for my wife soon.
Mr. Mobile! The guy i always thought looked like Timothy Olyphant. Onna serious note always love the videos!
Great video. I love my Flip 4, but would probably upgrade if the Flip 5 has Dex support. Hoping to see mention of that in the review.
Thanks Mr Mobile
Your devotion for foldable phones 📱 means that MrMobile will not fold at all because whilst you are folding and flipping your dulcet tones mean that your videos are always enjoyable!
Guess I'll be hanging on to my z flip 3 a little longer. Great video as always.
@MrMobile [Michael Fisher] Tnx for the great review as always. Can you tell me what skin or case (brown leather) are you using on your Samsung fold? Thank you
Well I bought the fold two three and four but it looks like I'll be saving some money this year
In the UK armoured cases are not available for the RAZR, so I think I'll be waiting for the full review on the flip 5 before choosing. Spigen cases haven't let me down yet but they don't make Motorola RAZR cases unfortunately. Thanks for the first look
Hi I'm a big time fan! Currently have the fold 3. Do I upgrade to fold 5?! My main issues are battery life and cameras. What shall I do?
Was waiting for your review..
Not to sound all fan boy but I really enjoy watching your videos. I got the Samsung exclusive Green Flip 5 can't wait to have it in hand
i feel like these are finally getting to be a bit more mainstream but at those prices i still get nervous about durability and longevity vs slab phones. especially at those prices. maybe pixel fold 2 or whoever releases the next fold but im looking forward to trying one sooner or later. wish samesung would up their game a little bit! maybe a last gen fold is the play right now
Hi michael, thanks for the video. A question as a fellow fold user: have you ever had problem of paint chipping on the hinge? i had the same chipping on fold 3 and 4 (both with official cover)... both phones with painting chipped off at the centre of the back hinge
The exclusives samsung Korea offers are always soooo good... 😊
this is why I keep sticking to my fold first gen. brutally durable compared to all the newbies!
Best foldable phone reviews from MrFoldable, aka MrMobile 👍
I already own a S22 ultra for business and bought a Flip 4 just a week ago. The rumors weren't looking promising and I am baffled that the real deal is even a smaller upgrade than expected. I am happy to have bought the 4 for just 570 euros.
On ya’ Micheal much appreciated as always for your hard work. I’ve been sitting on the flip / fold fence since the first Samsung Gen 1 fold and not convinced yet, although the larger front display is finally here on the flip 5 I am just not enticed to leap off that fence. Samsung just seem to be too relaxed with their competition hot on their heels and is why I’ll enter the flip / fold world elsewhere most likely with Motorola’s razr plus.
Moto Razr+ seems to have won the battle this year.
I had the same issue with the screen protector peeling on my Flip 4. Too bad to hear that they aren't improving it, though maybe the hinge design will help. On that note, I had the hinge break twice on my Flip 4s so hopefully the new design is more durable.
