The brand new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 is an impressive addition to the smartphone category, featuring an array of incredible capabilities, all wrapped in a slick and sexy fold design.

The immediate stand-out feature of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 is its compact form factor. Beautiful, slick and modern in design, this foldable Samsung device serves as the ultimate accessory for trendy millennials and Gen Z’s and comes in a number of colours to suit your personality and individual style. Over-and-above it’s beautiful packaging, the benefits of its modern design extends to its ability to seamlessly fit into your favourite handbag on a night out or in your pocket with ease during a meeting packed day, all whilst enjoying the benefits of a full-sized 4.2” screen.

Centred around enhancing convenience in your life, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 incorporates a 1.9-inch Cover Screen display which houses notifications, this allows you to stay updated on all your Twitter, Instagram and Facebook notifications without having to open the device. You also have the ability to view weather notifications and stay updated on your schedule using the widgets on the cover screen in a quick, efficient and convenient way. The main screen continues the Z Flip 3’s impressive form with its 6.7-inch Infinity Flex Display, this offers a spectacularly smooth scrolling experience. Aimed at maximizing battery life, the device also optimizes the refresh rate based on what you’re currently doing on the phone. The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 is also great for multi-tasking, because of its 170.3mm screen it makes it easy to open two apps at the same time, allowing you to become a pro multi-tasker.

Another impressive element of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 is its strength and durability, Samsung has ensured this device’s beautiful design is protected with its aluminum frame and Gorilla Glass. We’re not encouraging you to drop your device, but if ever you do, you’re in good hands over here! The screen’s toughness is also reinforced by the additional panel layer and protective film which acts like your very own built-in screen protector. The Z Flip 3 is truly as tough as it is sexy, and whilst we’re still not encouraging you to drop your phone, if you did and you happened to drop it 1.5 meters into water, you’d have up 30 minutes (T&Cs apply) to retrieve it – it carries a stellar IPX8 rating to support this.

And now for our favourite feature on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 – the camera. It features a 10mp front facing camera, a 12mp wide and a 12mp ultra-wide camera. It also records 4K in 60fps. We are absolutely blown away by the incredible camera quality this device possesses, for both still images and video content, it's definitely magazine cover worthy in our opinion! Avid selfie takers, we’re enthralled with the Z Flip 3’s ability to take selfies with the rear camera when the phone is folded by simply waving your hand. Another notable feature the cover screen incorporates is Duel Preview. Duel Preview allows you and the person you’re taking a photo of to simultaneously view the image you’re taking on both screens. It has easily taken the guesswork out of taking great pictures.

Flex Mode is also a notable contender for one of the strongest features on the device. This feature eliminates the need to hold your phone when doing a video call or taking a group selfie, it’s like a built-in selfie stick or tripod. Flex Mode allows you to do all of that and more by simply adjusting the angle of your phone and placing it on a flat surface. The added gesture controls also add to the simplicity of taking selfies. All you have to do is pick up your hand and the timer will start to show you when it’s about to take the photo. The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 is truly one of the best devices we’ve ever come across to create content with.
