Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 will come with new experiences on Microsoft apps as the South Korean smartphone vendor has expanded its partnership with the software giant. Samsung has additionally retained its tie-up with American designer Thom Browne to offer special editions of the Galaxy Z Fold 3, Galaxy Z Flip 3, and the Galaxy Watch 4 Classic.
Samsung has expanded its partnership with Microsoft to provide a better user experience on the newly launched Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3. As a result of the new move, Microsoft Office, Teams, and Outlook on the foldable phones will come with new productivity features. Samsung has also continued its collaboration with American designer Thom Browne to launch special editions of the Galaxy Z Fold 3, Galaxy Z Flip 3, and Galaxy Watch 4 Classic models in some markets. Separately, the company has silently ditched the in-box charger with the regular Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 units in markets including the US. The charger is, however, bundled in China. Microsoft announced the expansion of its partnership with Samsung through a blog post published following the Galaxy Unpacked event. The Redmond company said that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 will get new experiences on Microsoft Office, Teams, and Outlook. For instance, Microsoft said that when a user simultaneously uses Microsoft Office and Teams on a Galaxy foldable phone, they will see a presentation in full-screen detail, along with faces of their co-workers on a Teams call underneath when they unfold the device.

There will also be a dual-pane mode on Microsoft Outlook for Galaxy devices to let users read a full email while previewing others on one side — similar to what you could do on a desktop. Microsoft did not clearly mention which features will be available specifically on the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and which will be on the Galaxy Z Flip 3.
