Read more about Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 review: Unfolds prospects that will be hard to match on Business Standard. The Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is an entirely reworked and repurposed foldable device with monumental upgrades across lengths
The Galaxy Z Fold3 speaks volumes about the South Korean electronics maker Samsung’s efforts to add finesse to its This third-generation foldable device looks the same as the first-gen model. But do not let the looks deceive you. The Galaxy Z Fold3 is an entirely reworked and repurposed foldable device, with monumental upgrades across lengths that make it a lot less delicate. That in turn makes it a lot more fun and practical to use. The Galaxy Z Fold3 is not just a smartphone. There are two schools of thought about its design. As a smartphone, the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G is bulky (folded) and heavy, but a trim in weight and thickness when compared with its predecessors makes it a lot friendlier. For a device with two displays, including a big bendable one, the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G seems appropriately sized, with weight evenly distributed for a good in-hand feel, especially when unfolded. Complementing the design are the IPX8 rating for water resistance and Gorilla Glass Victus protection on the cover screen. While these two make the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G less delicate when compared with its predecessors, the device’s fundamentals – the mechanical hinge and bendable plastic display with a layer of ultra-thin glass on top – remain the same. Therefore, the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G will still require proper care for longevity. Important to note that the device is not dust-resistant and most of the caveats of its predecessor apply here too. Design and construction details aside, Samsung’s efforts to bolster the productivity features in the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G are worthy of appreciation.
