What reviewers say

Reviewers agree it is a well-built, durable flip phone with strong performance, better battery life and an improved main camera, but only a modest update on the Z Flip5. The common complaints are a cover screen that is awkward to use fully without add-on apps, slow charging and a higher price; GSMArena also found heavy throttling under sustained load.
