Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 reviewed by TechAeris
Review Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 by TechAeris
Samsung is still the king of foldables, Google and OnePlus are trying but are far behind
Samsung continues making big durability and design improvements. The Fold5 has some of the best improvements of all the Fold model years.
Foldable design is great for multi-taskers
Premium build, look, and feel
Samsung makes the best AMOLED displays on the market
Still sporting some of the best cameras of any flagship
Very good battery life
One UI and Android pair well together, One UI is still the best Andorid skin
Very expensive
While the improvements in durability are evident, these may last less time than a traditional smartphone design
The hinge is improved greatly, but debris could still find its way in. It's part of the risk of any foldable
No wall charger. I understand cutting e-waste but the option should be there on phones this expensive. Even if the customer was given the choice of with or without charger

The flaws of the Fold 4 are not fixed (crease, reflections?).
The technological lag compared to the Galaxy S Ultra is increasing.
The price, always very high.
