On August 18th, Samsung's Galaxy Z folding 5 and Flip 5 are going to go on sale for the first time. By the time the sale period opens, interested buyers who had placed their orders will receive this device prior to those planning on purchasing it. During the week I was allowed to make use of it, and found five reasons why I would be interested in buying her. It's going to include a couple of things you need to take into account before jumping in. So, here's five essential reasons why you should purchase a Foldable Cellphone.

Samsung hasn't made any design changes to the new Fold5 as far as adding new hardware components is concerned. There's some important changes, though. As far as the Flex Hinge is concerned, it's the most visible. A new version of this hinge makes the phone shut more tightly than it used to, and that results in a 2mm thinner device when opened. That allows the Fold5 to become even more flexible than its predecessors, so that both sides of it are folded in such a way that there is no room between them. The SPen has also been slimmed down by Samsung.

The Korean tech has been thinking about how to make people use the larger screen better with Fold5. This is vital if this form factor is to be successful, particularly since a large proportion of early adopters are expected to get their Folds refreshed in the coming year. For a few days, I've been trying to use the Fold5 as my personal phone and have just set up an office email account on this device in order to limit it to productivity applications. I've also decided to rely on the SSharpenPen in my meetings so that I can record notes.

New hinge mechanism- On the outside, Galaxy Z Fold 5 looks like a Galaxy Z Fold 4, but once you're holding one of them in each hand it becomes clear how much difference there really is. Using my palm as a scale of weight, I compared the Galaxy Z Fold 5 versus the folding 4 and instantly noticed how much lighter and more compact it was. The phone has a weight of only 253 grams at this point. The Fold 5 has a thickness of just 13.6 mm when folded.

Despite multiple screens, the battery has a good life. I was taken aback by the battery. It's been going on all day, even if I've been using it a lot. I've been scrolling through Social Media, looking at videos and video games. I needn't be afraid to run out of batteries. And, of course, if you pair it with the compatible 25W fast charger, they charge up pretty well.

Cool camera tricks With the Galaxy Z Fold 5, taking pictures was a lot of fun. There are different lenses in the camera so I can create. I'd be able to take pictures with clarity and color. The pictures came out very well even under the dim light. The cost may not be right for everyone. While the display size and features of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 may be attractive to you, it doesn't come cheap. For the 512GB variant, it comes at an extremely high price of INR 1,64,999.

Review of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5: Is this worth buying? Yes, if you've been using an older version of the Fold.

Yes, if you're going to buy your next phone as the most powerful android flagship.

Yeah, if you're one that likes to write notes for days at a time and use your doodles to destress.

I hope you liked my review of SAMSUNG GALAXY Z FOLD 5
