What reviewers say

Reviewers agree it is the best Flip to date, with a neat, compact design, strong everyday performance, better battery life and a more useful cover screen. The common complaints are cameras less versatile than regular flagships and few upgrades over the Z Flip3; Trusted Reviews still wanted longer battery life and found Motorola's cover screen more capable.
